Objective: Financial burdens of medical education are a major barrier for many students. The goal of this study is to identify and quantify unforeseen costs associated with being a medical student.
Methods: Medical students at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center were surveyed on unforeseen financial costs. Qualitative data were collected.
Results: Students spent significant extra funds in professional development, social spending, living, and technology.
Conclusion: Schools and students should consider all aspects of life to have a fruitful education and appropriately provide loan funding and financial education for both enough and thoughtful use of financial resources during medical education.
