Hey everyone.
I've been accepted to a three schools so far, Nova KCUMB & LECOM-Erie.
I have compiled a list of why each is good or bad for me. They pretty much offset each other, which is why it is hard to believe I have to make a decision by next week before I leave the country. Here is what I've come up with. Any extra additions or suggestion would be awesome! Thanks.

Tuition: ~34000 (Negative)
location: far from ohio/family (Negative)
Cost of living: 1000-1200 / month (Negative)
clinical location: 3rd and 4th are pretty much in the South? (Negative)
weather: fantastic (Positive)
Area: Ft. Lauderdale - good weather (Positive)
clinical opportunity: Lots of options (Positive)
Residency Match list: Pretty good (Postive)
KCUMB
Tuition: ~38000 (Negative)

Cost of living: 600-800 / month (Average)

If any of the facts above seem to be a little off, let me know so I can take that into consideration. Also let me know what you feel is more important to consider than something else. For example: Tuition over Location, etc.
Thanks in advance!
