Pitt or Buffalo

[coolview]

Which school are you going to choose if you only think about school itself and dental education? (Ignoring tuition, living expenses, and weather.)

I would pick Pitt. I interviewed at both, and definitely got a better vibe from Pitt.

Buffalo. Excellent clinical education.

I think Buffalo probably offers a better education, but PITT is very well thought of. In deciding between the two, I personally would take price and location as my primary reasons for one program over another. Considering that they are both rust belt cities (although I think Pitt has recently undergone some major improvements), I would probably weigh the cost more. If you are a resident of either state, go to that school...if not, go to the one that you feel you will be more comfortable with. I cannot speak for PITT, but at Buffalo the students are generally happy with both the school and our social lives...

Good luck with your decision, either way...you can't lose

I know my friend who interviewed at both also says Buffalo is better overall

they are both great schools.
if i had been accepted ( i got waitlisted) to buffalo i would have a hard time deciding between the two.
it all depends on what ur looking for in a school and what kind of environment would allow u to be successful

which one did you end up picking? I've been to both schools for interview, and pittsburgh might have the look of a metro city but it might just be too expensive without much to offer. Night life suffers in both cities in the winter, but at least there's Toronto just a couple of hours away from Buffalo.
