Hi guys,
Looking for some advice - I was just accepted at Cornell off the waitlist and have to decide between that and Wisconsin (my IS). Should I even consider Cornell? The biggest issue is cost, with financial aid Cornell would be around 50k total more than WI after 4 years so that alone makes me inclined to stick with WI. However, after visiting the open houses I definitely liked Cornell better - they're both great schools but I connected more with the other students at Cornell and really like their problem based learning approach. Also, I don't plan on staying in WI long-term after vet school.
Would there be any other advantage in going to Cornell over Wisconsin? I plan on trying to specialize in SA surgery or ophtho after vet school (I realize there's a good chance this will change during vet school, but I'm as certain as I reasonably can be at this point) - would one school make be more competitive than the other when applying to internships/residencies in the future?
Any insights/advice would be greatly appreciated!
