I have been torn between my top two choices, Meharry Medical College School of Dentistry and Howard University.
Meharry:
Pros
- close to home
- I go to school in Nashville so I’m familiar with the area
- I know many people there already
- slightly less expensive
- slightly renovated
Cons
- in Nashville (I want to try new places)
- out dated facility in some areas
- does not have residency for the specialty I want
Howard
Pros
-change of scenery
- more diversity
- more well known
- my best friend lives in the city so I won’t be alone
-has specialty residency I want to attend
Cons
-far from home
-have not visited in person (yet)
-cost of living slight more expensive
