I know there are posts comparing the 2 but I am looking for some updated recent feedback on the 2 schools. I was accepted at both and I already paid a deposit at one of them but I am wondering what you guys think about each school.
My impression is PCO was a nicer school than ICO. PCO has brand new everything top of the botch technology and the over all school looked brand new. Really nice library with unlimited free printing. New classrooms with tv and microphones and all that good stuff. The clinic is also brand new and was beautiful. The area around the school did not look great, it looked like low income housing(with all due respect). I searched housing around salus and I’m having a hard time finding something I can see myself living in.
ICO looked old. Although their lab looked ok and the classroom was fine, the rest of the school didn’t look so inviting. The cafeteria looked gross. The random computer rooms and study areas looked depressing. The clinic also looked old.
I know ICO has a good boards and a great reputation and vast variety for externships which I love. They also have good resources like PCO in the classroom like TVs and recorded lectures. The area around ICO is not as bad it seems on these threads. I go to Chicago often which is why I’m even considering ICO. Staying north of the school is perfectly fine.
I don’t care about the RC or how close the clinic is to the school because I plan on living off campus and will have my own car so I am not basing my decisions on housing and commuting.
What do you guys think of each school? Which one would you pick?
Any insight from current students of each school?
Thank you!
