Well since your life is being put in danger by going into a dangerous city, i would think you should go to TUNCOM. Enjoy the casinos and nightlife! Cheers!

Facilities at PNWU are much much better. Touro is kind of like a big factory building.....just kinda weird. Yakima and Vegas have good and bad areas so do some research wherever you go and find better housing areas. PNWU has no real cafeteria.....I don't know about Touro, never actually been there. PNWU is fine, but not my favorite interview. I'd give it a 7/10.

I can't speak for TUNCOM because I never interviewed there, but I can speak to PNWU a bit.

1) Yakima has a high crime rate but it is largely contained in specific areas of the city, so if you live near the school or in West Valley you shouldn't run into many issues as long as you are smart about it.
2) The campus buildings are entirely locked down, so you have to badge in and out all day every day. There is 24/7 security and they watch out for students really well.
3) The community at PNWU is unbeatable. The students and by and large the faculty are incredible and super supportive of other students and faculty.

Maybe someone else can fill in my gaps on TUNCOM, and in the meantime I'll try to think of more things about PNWU.
Happy choosing!

It's not surprising that Yakima is dangerous. It has an enormous illegal immigrant population (many working in the hops fields) and in fact, part of the school's mission is to serve these under-served persons.

It weirded me out that PNWU was standalone. Not saying that matters, but it was odd to me.
