LECOM Bradenton

Pros:
much cheaper tuition, 40k/year
prefer this location
good match and pass rates

Cons:

Have heard lots of negative things about school admin and experience
Strict Dresscode
Weird rules during classes
Weird policies regarding test scores and grading

NOVA DO

Pros:
seems to be more established
seems like there are less administrative issues
no odd policies regarding dress codes and such

cons:
much more expensive (tuition is almost twice as much)
less preferable location

Is there any real reason to ever consider NOVA DO over Lecom-B? Are there any specifics about the school experience itself that would make the almost 2x tuition price worthwhile?
 
I know this isn’t super helpful as I don’t really know much about either school, but I have a friend at LECOM-B who is an MS[emoji[emoji[emoji6]][emoji[emoji6][emoji6]]] and currently having a pretty negative experience. Definitely strictness and weirdness regarding the dress code and grading. She went because it’s close to home but said she would tell anyone NOT to go there. Obvi every single experience is super subjective but that’s what I heard from a current student!
