I've been back and forth on this prestige-vs-cost issue and am leaning towards staying in-state at UTSPH to save money. The only thing that worries me is whether or not it is easy to take this degree outside of Texas and find a job. I feel as if UTSPH's networks and connections, especially to the medical center, will keep me in Texas and I don't want that. I know experience matters, but don't most people get their jobs through their networks?
Would it better for me to save money for 2 years then move elsewhere to find a job? How easy would it be to take this degree and go beyond Texas? Or should I go to another school that is higher ranked and perhaps more well known with better alumni connections ( am considering UMich and UMN) but take on debt?
Any advice is appreciated!!
