Hi everyone,
I'm in the process of deciding which post-baccalaureate program to accept at.
I have an offer at UMich MEDPREP which has a relationship to its medical school, but not very established. Tuition is about ($30K) - begins 5/3. I was also offered a spot at UPenn (linkages, e etc.)
I have interviewed at Tufts (over 90% matriculation), and I'm waiting to hear from Bennington (95% matriculation) - all around $30K tuition.
I've gotten an offer to interview at Scripps, whose tuition is $41,000. They have 96% med school acceptance rate - I have to fly out from the east coast to interview.
Do you suppose Scripps' 96% med school acceptance rate and it's reputation are worth an extra $10-$12,000 tuition? Bennington's acceptance rate is high, but I believe Scripps is more well-known...I'd have to spend almost $1000 to fly out next week 3/28, or else wait until 4/8 for a cheaper flight, which cutting it close to UMich's start date...
Part of me thinks I'll probably fare well enough wherever I go, but I know medical school admissions are insane, and I don't want to underestimate any extra support I could possibly get...any thoughts?
