The schools you're wondering about are located in tiny villages compared to the Windy City...

There are a few dental schools in Boston, a couple in the NYC, a couple in Chicago, and a couple in San Francisco--that's about it for major cities...

I knew you'd mention LA, but I don't consider it a major city compared to the ones I stated (my opinion)...

How's UoP life treating you?

You want city life? NYU.

How can you beat Manhattan?
 
Nova is in Davie, Florida....not even Ft. Lauderdale or Miami....The most boring place in the world....but Miami and Ft. Lauderdale aren't far...beach is about 15-20 mins. Trust me I've lived here for 21 years and I guess its boring to me just for that reason....but you won't get much city life from Nova...you are better off at NYU, BU, detroit mercy, NJ....have fun and stay cool
 
don't forget about Penn. It's only about 2 miles from center city philadelphia.
 
UT Houston.....right in the heart of the 4th biggest city ppl endearingly call "the armpit of america". however, the dental school is located in the very beautiful texas medical center. and houston has a lot of vietnamese rest for all you pho lovers.

I'm just curious. How do you not consider LA a major city??

Even though LA is number two in population in the US, and bigger than NYC and Chicago territorially, it just does not feel like a city to me.

It's more like a giant populated area, a tourist attraction, SoCal, yet not a distinct city.

Once again, not taking anything away from LA (host of two Olympics, Hollywood, Sunset blvd, Rodeo dr, etc.)--just my personal opinion.

I did forget Philadelphia, and I cannot say anything about Texas cities...
 
Cleveland (home of Case) isn't a huge town, but it has a ton to offer in comparsion to the rest of Ohio 😉

I personally love Columbus (Ohio State) its big enough to have stuff to do, but not so big that you feel overwhelmed.

Hope this helps 🙂

Are you really from Chicago???? Did you completely forget about UIC? You should check out the adea's website to see a list of dental schools and where they are located.
 
ohh no way UIC is my top choice at the moment after i discovered that relatively speaking its in a nice location!!-financially decent!
