Those words came in an e-mail this morning from the U.S. Department of Education Federal Student Aid office. My struggle to finance medical school has been so tumultuous. So when I read such nonchalant words, sent by a customer service rep named Maria at 9:14 a.m. EST, I had to reread the words several times before this realization sunk in: I’m going to medical school. Not “if my loan gets approved.” The loan just got approved. There is nothing left standing in my way. What a feeling.

Thanks! It’s been a long journey, and the financial aspect has been incredibly stressful. But my success in getting this loan just goes to show how much you can accomplish if you make some noise. Even when things look impossible – don’t give up. There is always a way forward.
