I’m assuming the prices are nearly identical, right? With UIC being an expensive in state school with living expenses included

Yes, the difference in price is almost negligible

Tough choice. I liked Marquettes facilities, faculty & students, and curriculum better. I would hate SGL. That being said, UIC has a good alumni network, good residency opportunities, and it's pretty hard to beat Chicago.
I would go with Marquette.

I have my reservations about SGL as well. Marquette’s curriculum is also a tad more traditional. I also attended Marquette for undergrad and am much more familiar with The curriculum.

Hopefully you’ll be able to experience the UIC renovations within your 4 years if you end up going there hahah. Heard that’s been a mess

They’ve been talking about those Renervations for like 15 years. The state of IL takes forever to approve ****

I thought the UIC dental school facility was crappy looking and I felt the staff was very unprofessional. I say go to Marquette!

I had a poor impression of UIC as well. I’m gonna drive down there again and look around to get a second look.

Marquette for sure. I've heard only negative things about UIC.

What have you heard?

What have you heard?

Aside from the old building, the program is very strong and graduates strong clinicians. What else is a negative???
