Hello everyone! I am incredibly grateful to be in this position and am hoping to gain some more insight into both schools. 🙂
- OOS for both
- Tuition: Cheaper to go to Oregon (~$249,180 vs. ~$269,176) but I am from the east coast so Oregon might have extra moving/travel costs
- Location: Have visited both schools and I do like Corvallis a lot more than Ithaca. Cost of living seems relatively high at both places
- Hoping to go into mixed animal and to do an internship after vet school
I'm not a fan of the PBL at Cornell and it seems so much more intense there than at Oregon, but Cornell has access to a ton of resources and there are the many different teaching hospitals students can get experience at.
I like the lecture-based learning at Oregon and that students seem to have more well-balanced schedules, however, I've heard that students don't get much hands-on experience working with cattle and that there's not enough room in lecture halls to fit all students.
I'd love to hear any other pros/cons about each school, or just any insight in general about making this decision. It's been a bit tricky to find information on Oregon so it would be especially great to learn about resources offered for students to get hands-on experience.
