Hi everyone! I was fortunate enough to have received an acceptance to both OHSU and ASDOH as an out of state student. I am torn between choosing between each school, and would love to get some advice!
School 1: OHSU (OOS)
Pros:
Pros:
School 1: OHSU (OOS)
Pros:
- $74,436 tuition -- cheaper
- The weather is rainy and overcast, which I love
- Portland is a potentially unsafe area when compared to Mesa due to the ongoing political climate
- Further away from home
- P/F curriculum where specializing would be dependent upon receiving a 92% or higher in a course to obtain a letter of commendation
Pros:
- P/F curriculum where a dean's letter would be provided for those applying to specialty programs
- Closer to home
- The school is located in a safer area
- I've heard fantastic things about ASDOH's clinical experience, and that they are able to get exposure to many procedures
- The faculty I had the opportunity to talk to seemed very passionate about their school and their mission to help underserved communities
- $82,035 tuition -- more expensive
- Very hot in the summer
