Hi everyone!
I am incoming OMS1 and currently deciding between CHSU and WesternU COMP. I was accepted to CHSU in March and since I had not heard from WesternU COMP, I accepted the offer of admission. I moved to Fresno and have attended the orientation. I just got a call informing me that I have been accepted to WesternU COMP and now I don't know what to do. My entire family and significant other live in Los Angeles so attending WesternU means being close to family. I just don't want to make the wrong decision. Please help!

Definitely go, Western U at least has graduating classes you can pull from and hopefully you can get federal loans still

Seems like the only thing that is holding you back from choosing WesternU is that you’ve already moved to Fresno. I know it sucks but had you been accepted to WesternU in March as well, I’m sure the decision would have been a lot easier in choosing WesternU.

Western all the way. CHSU is a for profit school, has yet to graduate a class, and has a small rotation pool. Don't fall into the sunk cost fallacy. Get out of Fresno.

You made the right choice! Nothing against CHSU, it’s just that Western is established, known, and you get to live near your support group.
