I have been accepted by both USM and UNE for 2015 Occupational Therapy programs, now I need to choose.
UNE requires a deposit of $1000 by Feb 17 (which will be applied towards tuition) so I need to make a decision soon. Having a difficult time weighing my options-there are pros and cons to both.
UNE is more expensive and begins in May so I have less time to prepare, but it is a GREAT school!
USM is in Lewiston (not great) and has been undergoing financial issues and layoffs in different parts of the school, but it begins in the Fall and the staff and current students seemed happy and down to earth, and it is cheaper than UNE.
Hoping there are some voices that could weigh in on these programs out there? Any input would be GREATLY appreciated!! Thanks!!
( I am also applying at Pacific U here in Oregon where I am currently living, but the prohibitive cost of their OTD program is a major turnoff, for that reason alone I am leaning towards my home state for school)
