Dear Friends,

UCSF Vs UPENN??? My UPENN interview is in Feb and I have already been accepted in UCSF....Was wondering whether I should attend the UPENN interview or just skip it.
My questions are which of the two is better in terms of (1) school ranking and reputation, (2) Quality of education (3) ambience and (4) Tuition and living expenses??
I know the program starts in April but does anybody know exact date?

Your inputs are appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Upenn program starts at April 15th. I would suggest that there's no harm in attending interview if your regular schedule is not disturbed. Its a good school to see and its always nice to meet someone of your profession who have gone through the same procedure and are going thru the same( other interviewes who would be in the interview with you).

Thanks Snowwhite.....I will be finishing my Masters only in the end of April...It will definitely disturb my schedule if I get an admission there and I choose to opt for it. Anyway, I will not mind if it's worth a try.
Thanks again and I wish you a very happy new year.

I can tell that UPENN will make a lot difference in the 4th term u mentioned above.The cost of living in SF is far more than Philly.I think rest all factors are equally good in both of them.

goodluck.
