Hi guys! I have a question for you. If tuition weren't an issue (NOT saying that's the case, I'm just trying to get an idea of the overall quality of the programs themselves), what school would you chose, and why?
Thanks for answering! Can you explain why you think ODU is the best?ODU for sure
That's great, thank you! I really appreciate your insight because I've only been a VA resident for about a year and a half, and while I've tried to do plenty of research on my own, it's really nice to hear what others have to say about VA schools. Thanks again!Everybody is going to have their own opinion, but personally I got accepted to ODU and would have went if I didn't get into my #1 school. They are a big public research university so its well funded and have facility that are big names in the PT world. They are known to produce great clinicians and be very proactive in the community with events. They have been long established in VA, along with VCU, so they have a rich history. I believe radford is fairly new and shenandoah has been around. Another thing is that ODU is public state school so if you are a VA resident you would only pay around 50k for all 3 years, saving a butt load in student loans.
Not saying the other 2 schools are bad, it is just why I would have choosen ODU
