Hi there, I'm a non-trad student looking into post-bac programs. Although I was accepted into Loyola University (Jesuit-affiliated) of Chicago's post-bac program, I am really interested in North Park University (affiliated with the Swedish Covenant Church) or Dominican University because they both offer a Second Bachelor's Degree in Biomedical Sciences instead of just a certificate program.
Also, the facilities are nicer, newer, and there's more financial aid going around with the Jesus crowd, especially at North Park, which is highly attractive to my situation.
As a current Illinois resident (can't beat the price and the course offerings), I am also considering taking an informal post-bacc (just taking the classes I need) at the University of Illinois at Chicago, but it feels like a small city, and I don't want to fall through the cracks.
And, I am Christian. Not super Christian, but as I grow older, my faith grows stronger and I feel it will make me into a more compassionate physician.
I have a Bachelor and a Master's degree from a very good large private university in California and I loved my collegiate experience, but I am attracted to the intimate touch these small colleges offer.
I would really appreciate someone who has experience or knowledge about this, thanks!
