UNT Dallas vs. UTD...Texas schools!!!

I have been accepted to both universities, but am confused on which one I should go to. I want to become a pediatrician, and University of Texas at Dallas has a great premed program. But I only have to pay 1,000 for tuition for University of North Texas at Dallas and would have to pay $25k to go to UTD (since I am out of state). I will not be dorming. People are recommending me to go to UNT Dallas for freshmen year, and then transfer after a year to UTD (then I would pay in state tuition). Do you think is it worth it? Is UNT Dallas a good school? Will going to UNT Dallas for my first year of college, possible hinder my chances getting into med school? Thank you so much for your help! :slight_smile:

Are you out of state now?
If you move to Texas for college but your parents are OOS, you will NOT receive “instate” tuition.

I am out of state now, but my parents and I are moving to Texas this summer; So I will be recieving in state tution for the last 3 years of college. Do you think it is worth it to pay out of state for UTD or go to UNT first year (a lot cheaper but not a very good school)?

Did you get a scholarship at UTD? Sometimes, getting a $1,000+ scholarship at a Texas public university means you’re automatically switched to in-state tuition. Call them!
