I got accepted into Ponce St. Louis’s relatively new MD program to start this year. Also just got accepted yesterday into KU’s MEDPATH post bacc program: 2 semesters long taking 12 credits and a 3.25 GPA would get me a seat NEXT year at KU. KU is much closer to home and a more reputable school, but STL isn’t too far either, just a lil worried about its newness. Should I wait a year and risk it for a better known school? I just graduated from college this past May. Please help

Btw the tuitions are similar so that is not a factor.
 
How much $$ is the post bacc? Remember that will also be part of your student loan debt

I dont know much about Ponce’s new st louis campus, but i think i would choose to go there. Youll get to an attending salary faster.

Honestly have no idea, they haven’t given me many details at all😭😭. Someone on here like 15 years ago said they get a 10k stipend but idk if that’s true
