Iowa vs. EVMS

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I'd be paying in-state tuition at Iowa.

I like EVMS because I like the beach. I know it's immature, Iowa is a much higher ranked school, and I would save ~$80K in tuition.

Anybody care to vote on this?

Slap yourself in the face... here I will do it for you:slap:

Now stay in Iowa. Feel better:laugh:

Plus just because EVMS is next to the beach does not mean that you will have time to go...

80K at 6+% interest for a beach.

Or let me phrase the question differently:

Do you know anybody who has picked a lower ranked higher priced school for similar reasons? I'm just playing devil's advocate here.

No. End of thread.:meanie:
 
Oh and let me just tell you... the beach is great for a visit, but it gets boring going all the time...
 
There are two things you have to consider right now: the tuition, and the location. If you don't think you will be happy at either of these places, then don't go there.

BTW I would not mind paying a bit more to live comfortably.

Have you gotten your financial aid packages or are you basing this on tuition figures?
 
As a current student at Iowa, if I see you in the learning community next year I'll slap you myself.

Oh, oh God... oh God no.... you're out of your mind for even thinking of attending EVMS. Med school will be over in a flash, think about the decades beyond it.
 
Yea EVMS might be near a beach, but how much time out of the year is it actually enjoyable? probably may through august. It gets cold in the fall/winter in VA. Its colder by the water too.

haha nice one. how bout this. go to iowa, save the loans, retire early since you have less loans. move to and live on the beach. sound good? i thought so
 
tuition figures
I agree that 80k is not worth a view of the shore. Wait until you get your financial aid packages. May be the difference won't be as substantial after you get your awards.
