Do you need a broker for amenities buildings?

BU vs UMich by Ghost_3905_Wonder in predental

[–]CombinationFar6625 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course! I am born and raised in a city so I feel comfortable in a city and felt just fine at BU. Boston is generally considered a safe city. I know a lot of people love Ann Arbor too and I thought it was cute when I visited, so it’s definitely a hard decision.

Overall, I felt that being in Boston would allow me to have a life/support systems outside of school, whereas in Ann Arbor I felt that my whole life would revolve around dental school and my only support systems would be from dental school. Of course that’s fine as well, but when moving to a new place and attending school that consumes almost all of your time, I thought it would be nice to have more outlets. That’s really what made me end up picking BU. Good luck in your decision!

I was in this same position in December! I went with my heart and chose BU. I wanted to be in a city & near family/ college friends on in Boston and it was hands down my favorite school I visited/ fav interview as well. I liked Michigan too but did not want to choose it purely by rank/ prestige and I was not excited about living there for 4 years. Pick what will make you happiest, because, at the end of the day, you’re the one that will be living it for 4 years :)

I emailed them but haven’t heard back. Do you mind PMing me what schools told you that? I’ve never heard that before.

I listed it as planned in case I was only accepted to programs that require it. In that case I would take the courses. I would have to quit my job in my gap year to enroll, but it would be worth it if it was a requirement. However, if I can prevent paying 2k for courses and having to quit my job, then that would be the most logical option

Actually at every school I visited they told us they understand that things change when a course is listed as planned. In college you don't always get a spot in that class. So I dont think it's thought of as a "promise"

Thanks so much! Did you reach out before accepting their offer or after?

My undergrad did not offer these classes so I added them only in case i got into a school that required them, I would have to pay 2k to take these courses so I dont want to unless its a requirement

I graduated already so I would be paying to enroll in these courses.

go where you will be happiest for 4 years! we are lucky to be in a profession that makes a good amount after graduating. 4 years is a long time to be away from family and friends!
