I am very grateful to have been accepted to 5 programs (already told MUSC no because the program starts too early for me) and waitlisted at one (UF)...but I am having the most difficult time making a decision, any advice or pointers would be greatly appreciated especially since some deadlines are at the end of the week or month! I'm from FL and trying to consider if I should stay in-state, save money, and move to a different state to practice or just go to a different state and pay back loans later...I also want to be in a fun city with other opportunities to relax and have a life when I can.
1. Marymount University- I liked the students and teachers, they were all very nice and helpful, just concerned with the curriculum (doesn't offer as many electives/different courses). Tuition is approx. 26,000 a year
2. USF- Tampa is a pretty cool city, would be taking classes with med school students the first year, but also unsure of the curriculum diversity. Tuition is approx. 18,000 a year
3. UT- Memphis has a lot of history, the faculty and students were nice, and I loved the curriculum diversity, but sometimes the city looks really gray and hazy, and I know the crime level isn't the best. Tuition is approx. 22,000 a year
4. UK- My favorite school in terms of facilities, students and faculty were nice, like the service based approach but Lexington, KY is really far away from my friends and family and I don't know anyone there so I'd be starting over new. Tuition is expensive, approx. 32,000 a year
Please share your thoughts, any advice or tips are welcomed!
