Starting from MD1 - MD10, Tuition = $4,990 x 10 = $49900
Expenses on the island (MD1 - MD4) will range you at LEAST $2000/US/sem= $8000
School Fees:
$500/SEM DORMSURCHARGE (could have increased not a lot tho) x 4 SEM =$2000
$200 Health Maintenance Fees
Project 2400 = $80/semester x 4 = $320
Total School Fees = ~$2,500
Airline Costs = On average $1,000 to and back 4 times = $4,000.
MD5 Carbondale
Add Flying/Driving Costs to Carbondale from US/Canada anywhere from $200 - $700. I drove and cost me about $250 (I'm using this figure for total costs)
Rent / room = $650/month SINGLE OCCUPANCY x 4 months = $2600
Internet = INCLUDED IN ABOVE PRICE
Carbondale Expenses (Grocery, Gym, Misc) = ~$1500
Total MD5 (excluding tuition costs, which was included above) = $3895 for the 4 months + ($250/one way gas x2) = $4395 Total Costs
Clinical Rotations
Excluding Tuitions for MD6 - MD10
In the Chicago Area,
Hospital Fees = Each rotation costs you $125/ week x 72 weeks = $9000
Rent for a 2 bedroom Apt goes easily for $1200/ month x 2 years (give or take) = $28,800 TOTAL RENT divided by 2 with a roommate = $14,400 for 2 years.
Insurance Costs During Rotations = $900/ year for 2 years = $1800
USMLE Costs
Step 1 = $695
Step 2CS = $1200
Step 2CK = $695
If you take any USMLE Prep Courses, they range you anywhere from $3,500 + $10,000 depending on what you take. I took a Kaplan Course that cost me ~$5,500 so I will be using that for the total cost calculation.
Graduation Fee = $500
Living Expenses for 2 years in Chicago = ~$10,000
TOTAL COSTS FOR EVERYTHING
~= $120,000 +/- $10,000 depending on your standard of living
