Hi,

I fortunately got accepted into the International dentist program at both UCSF and UCLA . I have been a practicing dentist in India for sometime before I came to the US.

I am currently leaning towards UCSF because I think that the clinical exposure is better.

But UCLA has great weather - is around 15k less expensive, is a less expensive city in general and (I have heard) more students get into MSD programs.

Any thoughts on which one is better? The pass/fail program and honors is common in both - does it impact your chances for MSD or impact your job prospects compared to other schools?

Thanks in advance!
 
I know that there a lot of comparison threads between these 2 schools - but not sure if there has been any comparison of the International Dental Programs.
