Hi, guys..

I now need to decide my dental school among UPENN and UoP, and I know that both schools are great to attend. I feel lucky to have acceptance from those schools.
I currently live in Northern California, but originally came from the eastern part.
Other than weather, I need your help to figure out pros and cons about both schools, I already found some factors about UOP from previous threads though.

Is there anyone who made a decision among these two schools? If you choose either one, what were your reasons and facts?

Thanks~~^^🙂

Both are great schools. We have a ton of Californians at Penn. I think it's going to come down to personal preference, really. Where do you feel you belonged the most? Which interview group did you jive with the best?

Cost - Same price overall, pretty much. A year less tuition at UoP saves you a year of interest

Location - do you want new experience living on the East Coast?

Time - do you really want to get out in 3 years, or are you OK with doing 4?

Specialization - are you interested in possibly specializing, or do you know you want to do general?
