<p>Pitt: easier to do undergrad research and volunteering with the research labs and medical center right on campus. Getting involved in lab conducting real original research is a great way to differentiate yourself in med school applications and also reinforce the things you are learning in class that you just can’t do in typical undergrad lab classes. The earlier you start getting involved in research, the more involved the projects you might work on will be, the more likely you’ll eventually get published, and the stronger relationships you’ll develop with faculty that will write your recommendation letters. With the major research and hospital facilities being on-campus, it makes them easier to get to in between classes or other social engagements of undergraduate life. Pitt is the 5th largest center in the US (by NIH funding) as far as the amount of biomedical and health research that goes on, so it will be hard to find a place with more of a variety and wealth of such opportunities, especially right on-campus. Pitt’s reputation in medical and health sciences is very strong, and you are probably already aware of all those rankings.</p>
<p>That said, you should go where you feel more comfortable and will be happiest. Pitt is an urban, major research university that fields major athletic teams. Your cultural and social experience there will likely be very different than in ruralesque Oxford, Georgia. Ultimately, your success in school is determined mostly by you, and I’m sure either place will prepare you well for med school.</p>
