Hello all!
PNWU and RVU are two of the schools I'm considering. There are pros and cons to both. For those that have interviewed at both, I'm curious as to what you think of the two schools in comparison to each other. I have my ideas, but curious about yours. Here are some of mine.
-PNWU is cheaper, federal loans
-PNUW no "controversy"
-RVU's facilities were MUCH nicer, PNWU was a little cramped, and not nearly as nice
-The faculty at RVU appear to be more experienced
-Earlier clinical contact at RVU
-More confirmed clinical sites and more residencies in the mix at RVU
-I personally don't see any problem with for-profit, but some do, so RVU has the potential to leave that stigma with me...potentially make PDs less likely to rank me?
-Yakima is cheaper
-Smaller class at PNWU, but admin appeared to know students well at both schools
Anyone else's thoughts/comments?
Edit: I'm sure a great education could be received from either.
