I do not know where you live but in Nashville (if you go to State School) there is plenty of money for your field. Vanderbilt and other schools have funds for your program.
Also, the feds have a program that will pay for your school. You must agree to every year school is paid for, you must work in a rual area year per year. Nashville has plenty of rual areas that qualify.
You need to google Physician Assitant and school Nashville.
There is a school here that has a link to the program I am talking about. NON Traditional / http://www.trevecca.edu/academics/non.trad.undergrads
They have the program....
Hope this helps,
