We had a speaker from UTHSCA (San Antonio) do a presentation for my pre-dental society yesterday, and I was blown away by the new dental school, clinics, and teaching center they have opened over the last 2 years. What are some of the top campuses (in terms of state of the art technology, architecture, landscape, etc.) you have visited or have interviewed at?

CWRU's new campus would probably be on top of the list in terms of technology and architecture.

But in terms of location...

Columbia has some amazing projects going on. Here's a new building that D1s use:

Tech-wise, just based on reputation & hearsay, I'd say MWU-AZ has the edge.

I thought Nova's campus was beautiful and their buildings were nice with lots of big windows and natural light. The newly renovated sim lab was also impressive.

UPenn is unique in being integration within the university main campus in an urban center. I'm not sure any other dental school can say that. Unique, but not necessarily best.

And yeah, that new Columbia building is nice (but have fun paying 110k a year for it). Is it even open yet? They let us walk on the ground floor, but didn't take us up any higher.

D1s are using it right now.

Also, since you brought up price, Penn costs more than Columbia.

Holy shet, basically going to school in a 5 star hotel.

If you think that's gorgeous, then you should see the lobby of the main dental school building (not in the pictures I uploaded). I actually said to my tour guide "This looks like a five star hotel."

I guess if anyone ever wonder why dental school is so expensive, this thread shows you why

This is not reason haha

This is not reason haha

Care to expand a bit?

I think Columbia has a tuition that is nearly $70k/year, and I'm wondering where all this money goes

This is not reason haha

I think half of our tuition at MWU AZ goes towards trying to water our grass.

We have lush, green grass.

In the desert.

🤣

MWU-AZ and UOP from what I've seen so far.
Columbia is building a lot of cool stuff but a LOT of their buildings we toured through look pretty old/broken down.

I am not going to dental school for their architectural design.
