But to each their own Oh wow. I was looking up top PA schools in the US and Midwestern was fairly high. I'd be interested to hear the issues with the school.

And how was the interview process? Any tips would help as I’m applying to those places too! Thanks!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmWald19 Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Hi everyone, I am also applying to several of the Chicagoland schools since I live in NW Indiana (about 40min drive from Chicago). Best of luck to everyone! I am hoping to submit by the end of the month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mands Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 If anyone is considering a suburb of Chicago, there's a program through North Central College in Naperville. It's really not that far from the city (there's trains you can take in!). The cost of living out here is considerably cheaper. There's a lot of trendy downtown areas nearby, too (i'm lookin at you Geneva & Batavia)! I live in the area so I can tell you a bit about that part. This school seems like the closest suburb school to Chicago, too! The other one is all the way down in Southern Illinois. Besides that, I think that's about it for the programs out here.

What do you think Northwestern and RFU valued most about your app? I liked the fact that RFU has an interest in Minority students and that NW values patient centered care approach and PBL. Let me know your thoughts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
