Members don't see this ad.

So I have been accepted to UNLV and Oklahoma and Im hoping anyone familiar with the programs might chime in and help me weigh this thing out! Im married with no kids yet, out of stater for both schools.

UNLV - I think: $215k w/o living expenses assuming I get instate after 1 year. (Anyone know about NV's grant-in-aid program?)
- Closer to more family(CA)/I know people in vegas
- Good technology/facilities
- I hear about unhappy students/complaints about faculty

Oklahoma - $ 223k w/o living expenses assuming im OOS all 4 years. (Does anyone know if getting instate is possible?)
- Dont know anyone in OK
- Still no digital x-rays, do own lab work?
- Student not happy about slow tech but happier overall?
- Start dental school 2 months earlier

Im interested in specializing and as far as I know both schools provide equal opportunity for it.

Can anyone weigh in on factors here or those Im neglecting?

Seems like according to your list, UNLV wins out. Cheaper, closer to family, nicer facilities, same opportunity to specialize, etc.

Vegas is also a lot more exciting then OKC 👍

I would go to UNLV for some of the reasons you mentioned.
