HI EVERYONE!
I am currently really struggling to decide between two extremely awesome schools! I have visited both UIC and WUSTL and am seriously struggling to decide! Money wise, they are pretty similar in tuition (uic is slightly less but living costs are much higher). I was hoping someone could give me some feedback if they also were choosing between these schools!
 
Hi! I also got accepted to UIC and another school and I am trying to decide. Congrats on your acceptance!! out of curiosity, do you want your masters or your OTD? One thing I really liked about UIC is their commitment to social justice and their community. They also are right by the Shirley Ryan Ability Labs, (formerly RIC) which is the best rehab hospital in the country!
 
......lol I was just there! You don't happen to be the other girl that was still trying to decide? I really like the fact that they have a commitment to social justice but WUSTL also has amazing community outreach programs which is nice! The Shirley Ryan Lab is amazing but I did hear from other students at WUSTL that they would be doing their fieldwork there as well so I am trying to not hinge my decision on that. I think that I am going to be going to WUSTL just because the cost of living is much cheaper and I like the hands on aspect of WUSTL which I feel like UIC has but not as much as WUSTL!
