Hey guys..this is very last minute but I'm getting ready to finalize my decision and would appreciate any input on these two schools.

OSU
Pros
+Can reclassify as in-state after 1 year to take advantage of in-state tuition
+Felt really comfortable here on interview day with the students and interviewees
+P/f curriculum (I think)
Con
+More expensive than Wisconsin
+Ranked lower

Wisconsin
Pros
+Half tuition scholarship
+ranked higher(which might matter due to step 1 change)
+A lot of research opportunities during m1/m2 summer
+integration of public health in the curriculum
Cons
+Potential lack of diversity
+Class is ranked

I would also like to hear perspectives from current or incoming students at either school. Thank you for the advice!

I would go Wisconsin just because it's cheaper and its on about the same level of prestige imo. Where do you see yourself happiest?

Nah, at Wisconsin you don't have to deal with the fact that you're at Ohio State. Just a ****ty institution overall

There was no second look this year so it's kinda hard to answer that question. However, I'm leaning towards wisconsin now that I know OSU's class is also ranked.
