My people, I have a big decision to make just like many others. I know this is not a unique situation and that there are dozens of threads out there just like this one. However I would still appreciate any advice. I am a Canadian student (black male) who has been accepted to Penn State and Meharry. I have made a pros/cons list but its too long to put everything up on this thread, so here are a few points which I am considering:
1) I liked Penn State (alot)... but I loved Meharry when I went for my interviews. I think I would be comfortable at both places.
2) I have always lived in medium to large cities. Nashville is a large city with a small town feel and Hershey is... well its small, lol.
3) Penn State does have a better reputation and possibly better opportunities for top residency matches (although I am aware that it all depends on how well you do regardless of school).
4) I would be an international student so i'm not getting any financial aid from either school, but Meharry would be a bit cheaper.
Ok I will stop now... I know this is a good problem to have so I am not complaining, but PLEASE HELP!
