guys with sadhana I am back with another
video free guys so I just want to say
thank you to all of you for joining me
on this journey you really really
appreciate you guys so if I haven't said
it in a while this is my time saying it
to you guys now thank you guys so much
for joining me on this journey I really
appreciate each and every one of you and
and if you haven't already done so go
ahead and subscribe right now and join
me on this journey so you guys um for
those of you who are like man you know
what
peeing school is expensive it is it
definitely is and some paid schools are
more expensive than others so it's very
very very very important that you figure
out how you're gonna pay for PA school
so you got into PA school you're happy
you're enjoyed or you're thinking about
PA school now how are you gonna pay for
it right like what are you gonna do and
that is what this video is gonna be
about how to pay for PA school many
people go the traditional route and that
traditional route is through alone so
you can go through FAFSA I know a lot of
my cohort classmates did that they went
through FAFSA to fill out that
application it's based on either your
parents or yours
IRS and your w-2 forms and it will
actually like populate different
scholarships and loans and and
government federal loans that you can
actually use to pay for PA school so I
know that's like a good option for some
people they choose that route because
you know they don't have a hundred
thousand eighty thousand dollars just
laying around waiting for them so that
they can pay for PA school so that is
the route that they choose and if you
haven't already thought of FAFSA or if
you've never filled out a FAFSA go ahead
and get started on that application
right now because they need like
different information for you and
earlier you apply for FAFSA the better
because there are some government grants
and loans that kind of get taken up
sooner on depending on how many people
are applying in our eligible so it's
important for you to actually apply and
fill out your FAFSA early in the year if
especially you think that you're gonna
get into pH school this year or within a
year or if you've already gotten into PA
school so that is one route now another
route is to go to the personal loan so
you can do a personal loan a private
loan that's not through FAFSA not
through federal funding you know through
your local bank and I know there are
some pretty like decent-looking loans
especially for the medical and
healthcare field I know like discovery
help has has like a health one you know
for like student loans
I know son trust does I think PNC does
as well the one that I was really
interested in was Wells Fargo and I mean
I know y'all I know a fella
well guys shake you right now for most
Fargo because of the whole thing that
they were embroiled in last year with
you know that little big like scandal
thing I get it I get it alright I get it
you guys but their student loan was like
really really appealing um it was made
specifically for people in like health
care professions or going back to school
like you know your MPs your PAS your
dentists your physicians and it I think
their cap is like a hundred and twenty
thousand dollars per year and then you
don't have to start repaying it until
two years after you've gotten out of P
like well school whatever school you're
in so that was like really appealing
because it gives you time to like
prepare because let's say for instance
you know you're 23 24 25 you're still
able to live at home with your family
your parents you don't have like you
know a wife or a husband and you're able
to like save money while living with
family that is big because you'll be
able to now come ahead and save up from
the money that you're making while
you're in your respective career
and you can put that to wards you're
alone so that is like a really really
good option for many people
another option is your grants and your
scholarships and again I know that FAFSA
does
I think they send you some of the grants
but you can also go to your financial
aid counselor at your respective PA
schools or what every school you're
entering into and they will have like a
list of the different scholarships that
the school may offer or that other
people may offer you know people in the
health care system that they work with I
know my particular school has a health
care system that they're closely related
to that offers a scholarship to students
in their second year and so that's
really like important because you're
able to now pay for the majority you
know like half over 50% or at least 50%
of your tuition and then that's one less
burden that you have to worry about now
you just have to concern yourself with
okay well how do I take care of the
other half and it's less money that you
may have to come up with maybe you're
able to actually borrow that from fencin
and family so you know that is an option
go the scholarship and grants route it's
tedious work because a lot of them
require you to write essays and things
like that but I mean it's essentially
free money so definitely think about
that you also have your loan repayment
programs so I know that if you were
already working some some places their
jobs will pay for them to go to school
in a sense through a loan repayment
program but there is this thing it's
kind of like Teach for America I think
is what it was called for the teachers
where you go and kind of under serve
populations and you teach the kids in
that area and it helps to pay for your
graduate degree or your schooling that
you actually took to become a teacher
and we have that same thing in the
medical field and then kids here like
National Service Corps I believe is what
it's called I will definitely look that
information up for you and just kind of
leave a link in like right here link
right here for you guys so you can
actually go and look into that but I
know that you owe them I guess you owe
them time in an underserved area and
they will pay for your schooling so that
is some
to look into I'm not really sure of all
of the amount if it's the whole thing if
it's part of it 50% but that's all
information that you guys can go in
thigh for yourself and see if that's
something that you want to do if you're
already gonna work in let's say a free
clinic or you know an underserved
population area that's already your
passion then this might be a great
option for you also you know you can go
where in this age of like social media
I'm here on YouTube you know we have
Instagram and then we have like GoFundMe
right we have all of these different
kind of crowdfunding websites so that is
an option you guys don't like don't be
afraid to ask your friends and family
okay you can crowd fun I know some of
you are very privileged and that's okay
that is okay that you have a mom who is
a physician or an uncle who is the CEO
of Pfizer and that is all right go hit
uncle Pfizer up you know go ask him
uncle I'm trying to you know better the
world could you help us sister out like
I will repay you you can ask for
repayment you can say hey I'll repay you
I'll give you I'll write up a contract
whatever it is you guys don't be ashamed
don't be because you're bettering
yourself and you're gonna intern better
the community that you're served and so
it's gonna be important for you to just
kind of like swallow your pride take a
little bit of that humble juice and go
ahead and ask ask your friends and
family not everybody has uncle Pfizer
but that's okay you can just ask mom and
dad and cousin and sister and brother
and friend from high school you know
make a nice video I did it I made a
video I was like y'all I need to pay for
my initial entrance in a PA school could
you please help me out and if I hadn't
have asked I wouldn't be here right now
in PA school because that is where like
help propel me and I was able to
actually get somebody to help me pay for
BA school so do it you guys do it okay
that's an option crowd fun don't be
afraid to do this okay lastly I think
that this is also important especially
those of you that are in the Armed
Services or military and you're thinking
about becoming a PA I don't know like
the specific different branches but you
know you're you're trying to do the
medic thing you want to be a PA in the
military or in the armed services and so
I know that they have routes of pain for
that helping you pay for it I don't know
exactly how much it is if it's again 50%
or all of it or you just give back time
I know my friend he went to school he
was in the military he's a physician he
went to school and he owes nothing he
owes them nothing but his time and so
he's out of school
$300,000 debt-free and that that is
great so it's a great option for some of
you if you're already in the military if
this is something that you already have
dedicated your life to or if you're
thinking about it look into it look into
it because that is a way to pay for PA
school and I think the just the kind of
blatant just hey this is like this is
something that you can do is just plan
right you know save up y'all if y'all
know that y'all trying to apply to PA
school within the next two years go
ahead and start working your behind off
and save now start saving now because
let's say you're able to pocket $20,000
within the next two years or 30 or
$40,000 for a lot of PA schools that's
like 50 to 60 70 percent of their
tuition for both years because you're
you're paying like thirty five thousand
twenty thousand dollars a year so that's
that's a big chunk of money if you're
able to get $20,000 that might be like
half of your PA schooling right there so
don't be afraid to just work hard and
actually save I know that it is not
necessarily what everybody wants to hear
it's not the easiest route but it's
definitely a practical route and it's
something that everybody can do with
respect to just kind of getting out
there and doing as much work and as many
jobs as you possibly can save up prepare
yourself and put that away in a nice
little savings where it can even gain
and
and then when you get into PA school you
may not even have to ask anybody for
help because you did it yourself so
that's it those are my tips y'all I hope
you guys you know take this and take
this into consideration and take it to
heart go ahead and look at the website
that I'm gonna leave for you all and
hopefully you guys find some ways to pay
for PA school I am so excited for
everybody that has gotten into a school
and that is thinking about cake school

your due diligence and do your research
and hope you guys enjoyed this video
