Hopkins
Pros
It's Hopkins
Currently pass fail clinical but may change
Neutral
Missed second look so didn't see vibes
Cons
25 k more a year than Penn
Baltimore is eh
Far from family and support system
Columbia
Pros
20 k cheaper than Hopkins
Support system close by
I like nyc and know it well( would be less of an adjustment)
Housing on campus and cheap for nyc
Neutral
Second look was/is pretty fun but some students were eh ( may be like this at other schools)
Cons
Graded clinicals
Admin seems kinda unfair
Students more competitive during clinicals
5k more expensive than penn
UPenn
Pros
Cheapest option
Students seem to have good admin support
Philly seems fun
Cons
Graded clinicals
Further from support system
Housing tends to be further from campus than other two schools
I feel as if the prestige is relatively the same so it isn't really a factor. However I am wondering how much pass fail clinicals is worth it at Hopkins over the other two schools? Also is 5k difference between Penn and Columbia negligible? And if not should I lean towards one or the other?
