Both are really great schools. I do not have a preference with location. (originally from New Jersey)
*hope to specialize in the future

Marquette (OOS)
*cheaper by~ 250k
*attended undergrad here

If anyone could provide any feedback or personal experiences about either schools, that would be extremely helpful!

Thank you!

Thank you for the reply. Do you have any specific reason or just cost related?

Also, many students say that Tufts has better clinical exposure- if anyone could give an opinion on that... that would be extremely helpful.

You can specialize from anywhere and Marquette is way more affordable. Keep your debt low, even if you want to specialize. I went to a “cheap” OOS school, got into a moderately priced 2 yr residency and I’m still looking at $400K debt. Not ideal when you start thinking about setting up an office (I project mine to cost 300-600K) and buying a house.

This is not even a question. Marquette and it's not even close.

Thank you guys for the response! I am definitely leaning towards Marquette.

Just wanted to see if anyone else had any additional feedback.

cheaper
no amount of clinical experience will make up $250k
