Undecided between Villanova and UT Austin

Colleges and Universities A-Z Villanova University

<p>I am currently debating whether to attend Villanova or University of Texas-Austin.</p>

<p>I hope to major in physics but continue on to medical school.</p>

<p>I like Villanova because they are a private Catholic school, have "great academics," and the small classroom size so that the professor will get to know me.</p>

<p>I like UT because they are well known around the nation and have great programs throughout the university.</p>

<p>I am not sure about how I feel on small/large size of either university.</p>

<p>What are other people's opinion on either school or on their physics program?</p>

<p>taken several classes in our (nova) physics dept…severely lacking is a gross understatement…do not come here for physics…nova is a great school but the physics dept is not up to par</p>

<p>i’m still undecided…</p>

<p>I’m also thinking about transferring to the engineering program once i choose a school. I know they are both ranked. UT for highest degree is a doctorate and Villanova for highest degree is a masters.</p>

<p>Opinions or information about this will be very helpful.</p>

<p>thanks again</p>

<p>You got to consider the location as well. Being close by NYC, DC and Boston, a lot of multinationals have headquarters in these areas. There will be a lot more chances to get real life work experience, even in the school, such as recently Villanova students involved in a case study sponsored by Roll-Royce:</p>

<p>Definitely Villanova.</p>
