College question!


Question Posted Monday July 22 2013, 12:19 pm

16/f if that helps any but I am going to be a junior in High School this coming up school year and I am worried about college and everything. I have decided to narrow my choices to either be a Diagnostic Medical Sonographer or an Ob/Gyn (Obstetrics and Gynecologist). My financial situations are not all that great and will definitely be getting loans out and applying for some scholarships. Anyways, I know it ranges between $24,000-$30,000 a year for education and boarding. I was wondering, to save some money could I take the undergraduate courses online then transfer those credits to a Medical school?

I want to go to Ohio State University, instead of taking my undergraduate courses on campus, I will attend an online college, and then once I graduate I will then apply for OSU Wexner Medical College?

It will save me a TON of money in the long run.

Above was an example if I decide to be an Ob/Gyn seeing I only need an associate’s degree to be a DMS.

Here is a website to give you a few information on both of the majors
Diagnostic Medical Sonographer------[Link](Mouse over link to see full location)

Obstetrics and Gynecologist -----[Link](Mouse over link to see full location)

Do you know if this is aloud?
Do you recommend anything?
Any scholarship recommendations?

Thank you!

The most likely answer to your question is yes. Many Colleges today offer online classes. To get the unequivocal answer to your question I suggest you call or write Ohio State Registrar's Office and ask them.

Another option that is available to you is your local community college. The cost for tuition should be close to or about the same as on-line courses. There are two benefits to community Colleges beyond an almost guaranteed acceptance of the credits.

1.You have direct student instructor interaction in the classroom as well as interaction with other students. This gives a more balanced approach to the course(s) you are taking.

2. By going to a community college you get to experience some of the college experiences you would definitely miss with online course or by not attending a 4 year school. This is also important as it is part of the maturing process that college provides.

Short answer to your question: Write Ohio State for an answer you can depend upon being the correct answer. Think about a community college for the undergrad work instead of on-line courses.
