Emily,
I'm not a student at UNE yet, but I can tell you that it is a top rated school. This comes even from some of the MDs in NC. I also hear that PCOM is a great school.
I'm not trying to start a shoving match, but will mention some things that appeal to me personally:
the class size - 115 vs ~250 at PCOM
the environment - colder, but safer and much more scenic
cost of living - cheaper than Philly
They both are great schools and have some good competition in their back yards (although UNE's back yard is more more expansive). Anytime you have a program that has big-name schools close by, it raises the bar.
Bottom line: you can't wrong with either place. If you can afford it, go back to each place and shadow a student for the day.
