Anyone have thoughts on how to pick between PT programs? Right now I am choosing between Miami and Arcadia. I was just going to go to the cheapest school, but with the scholarship from Arcadia they cost the same amount. I'm running out of criteria to choose between.
They are both highly ranked with impressive faculty that seem to care a lot for their students. Arcadia has a really cool curriculum with 3 week units instead of semester classes. This means no midterms/no finals! The think I like about Miami is that they have a ton of really awesome electives and you only go to school 4 days a week, so you have a lot of study and down time. Both have the opportunity to do research with the faculty. At Arcadia it's a choice at Miami it's a requirement.
Miami and Philly are both pretty cool cities, though I do like the fact that it doesn't snow in Miami. I don't think the cost of living would be that much different if I lived in Philadelphia instead of Glenside, though maybe a little cheaper then Miami, but not by that much. And both have really nice campuses with gym facilities and the students were really cool at both places.
My gut tells me I'd be happy at either school. Someone on this forum got a lot of flak for suggesting flipping a coin but honestly that's kind of where I'm at here. Does anyone have other criteria that I'm missing???
I am kind of at a loss here
