Hi guys,

I’m fortunate to have been accepted to these two programs, BU and UNE. But I’m having a difficult time choosing between the two.

I have created my own list of pros and cons but still not sure which to go with. Can you guys give me your thoughts/opinions on these two schools?

From what I’ve heard from current/past students it’s a great/close environment, and you get to take on harder specialty cases during your time there. Something that’s pushing me away from UNE is that it gets dark early in the day. Tuition is also a big factor since it’s about 100k cheaper after interests.

BU also has a close environment but a larger class. The school really pushes digital dentistry and Boston is a city that I’m interested in living in. But from talking to a past student, she had a hard completing the endo requirements (ONLY two) because these cases were pushed to specialties. It sounds like you don’t get that many chances to do the harder cases.

Thank you for your inputs!

you can live somewhere where it stays light later in the day after you graduate with less debt...

UNE is that it gets dark early in the day,

So I googled the sunset times for Boston and Portland ME. We're talking MINUTES. This isn't comparing against Alaska.

Thank you all for your responses! I’m definitely leaning towards UNE

Holy cow the fact you’d pick Boston over une based on a couple minutes of light goes to show how important light is. Go to une. Save a little money (still ridiculously priced) and move someone warm after the south really needs dentists.
