I feel very blessed to have been accepted to both WVU SOM and SLU. However, the decision between the 2 is hard for me to make and I only have about 12 hours left to make it.
WVU
Pros:
SLU
Pros:
WVU
Pros:
- Great campus in a beautiful area
- Extensive and modern hospital system
- Matches into competitive residencies, especially when staying at WVU
- I have family within an hour or two of the area
- Honors/Pass/Fail preclinical grading
- Probably less prestigious than SLU
SLU
Pros:
- Older school that’s well-known nationwide
- Also matches well into competitive specialties, particularly when staying at SLU
- P/F Preclinicals
- Essentially brand new teaching hospital
- STL can’t really compete with Morgantown
- Boring landscape and far less outdoor activities to do
