school decision

Hello, I currently got accepted by UDM and Touro (2+2 program and NM for clinical) and really hesitated to make a decision here. I am an international student on F-1 visa, so both programs cost same amounts. I am not considering any specialty for now, so I value most about the quality of...

I was just accepted into UNLV and now I am stressing over deciding what school to go to, as I was acepted into MUSC several weeks ago and put down a deposit. I feel like they are such different schools, but they both really interest me. I received a scholarship to UNLV which is a huge factor. I...

Hi everyone, I got accepted into Ohio State, Case Western, and Temple this past Monday. However, I'm having trouble deciding which one to choose - any input on the ease of getting IS tuition (I live in VA), the clinical experience, family environment, reputation, etc.? So far, I haven't heard...

I was accepted into Concordia's pre pharm to pharm program, but decided to go to Madison instead for undergrad. Is it a good idea to try and transfer back and avoid taking the PCAT or try Madison or MCW. Another factor in my decision is what each school prepares one for, I would like to be...

Hey, After been accepted to a school I consider perfect, I withdrew my application in some schools that told me that I was being considered for a post-December interview. I'm 100% sure that I wouldn't go there since their tuition is double what I'm going to pay at UMKC. However, every time I...
