Hii!

So long story short, I put down my deposit for Penn. I interviewed at UNC in September, but no news yet.. And just got an interview invite from Tufts! Should I go? Tufts vs Penn? Any advice would be appreciated

go to the interview:

if you like boston more than philly, if you dont want to specialize and want to focus on general dentistry, if tufts is cheaper (think they are pretty similar if you factor in living costs), if you like larger class size

Tufts vs Penn, depends on if you're considering any specialties because both are so expensive anyways. If you are considering a specialty, or would like to keep your options open, then go to Penn. If you want to be a skillful general dentists, like maybe you're taking over a family practice or have a strong interest in general dentistry, Tufts is well known to produce excellent clinicians. In your situation, I would make the decision now to avoid an unnecessary interview if need be. Of course, if UNC was an option later down the road, then cross that road when you arrive.
