NYITCOM Jonesboro vs. VCOM- Auburn

[Sarat25]

Hello!

So I am having a difficult time choosing which school to go to and I am now between NYITCOM- Jonesboro and VCOM-Auburn. They are both about the same distance away from my hometown (in Texas)

NYITCOM-Jonesboro
Pros

• I loved the atmosphere of the school, the facilities, and how housing is within walking distance.
• I liked the schedule of this school, compared to VCOM-Auburn.

Cons

• Tuition & Fees: 52-53K

VCOM- Auburn
Pros

• Tuition is cheaper than NYITCOM- about 45K
• Of both of the outcome reports for both schools (including the one in Old Westbury), it seems like VCOM-Auburn's COMLEX 1 scores are higher

Cons

• The block schedule is really fast-paced with really short breaks.
• The atmosphere was okay when I interviewed here, doesn't have close housing and other amenities like NYITCOM.

I just highlighted the pros and cons that were important to me. If there is something else I should really think about in terms of choosing schools (like which school is a better option in terms of rotation sites/residency), let me know.

Also, I got accepted into UIWSOM and ARCOM, but I placed it lower on my list, because they were brand-new schools without established branches. Should I still consider them?

Thank you for helping!
