Saint Louis University (SLU) Medical Scholar Program vs Rice University???

Hi everyone!

I’m struggling to choose between these two universities. What are pros/cons of both? In addition, while I do know that SLU Medical Scholars Program isn’t guaranteed (but there is some assurance), is it worth forgoing Rice University and vice versa? I do know that I want to go into medicine.

Probably not? What are the advantages? Any GPA required to keep anything?

You would need to maintain a GPA of 3.65 at SLU.

I don’t think it’s worth forgoing Rice for SLU. If you’re good enough to fulfill SLU’s requirements, you’ll get into a med school. If the med school path doesn’t work out, you’ll be glad you got a STEM major from Rice.

As med school is typically paid for by loans, where would you graduate from with the least debt?
