Any Pennsylvania kids out there debating Pitt vs Temple? Any input would be appreciated.
 
You can't beat the great clinical experience at Temple!👍
 
If you like a hospital atmosphere and a safe clean city w/ good sports teams go to PITT, if you are solely interested in becoming a general dentist and getting as much clinic time as possible than go for temple, I was accepted at both school, but just liked the atmosphere at PITT more. GL
 
See I went to Pitt for undergrad, so I wanna go back. I'm from eastern PA so Temple would be closer to my home and where I'd wanna end up. And I'm willing to try something new, but Pitt seems like an old pair of jeans, cozy and worn in ... I'm just trying to make the best decision I can!

Go where you feel comfortable. Nothing wrong with that! You'll get a great education at both. Pitt has a smaller class size, so in a way it is a cozier place. Being close to home also allows you to easily go back for some R & R whenever your schedule allows. A very nice option. Good luck in school. Congratulations.

Go where you'll be happiest! 🙂 Though it's not a problem for people to go from Pitt back to Eastern PA to settle (that's my plan personally).

Wherever you feel as though you have the best chance of being happy. 🙂

I liked Temple, but I was afraid of the area so I cam to Pitt instead. 🙂
