I am a professor at a UC medical school. I am a graduate of the UC system. My DS is most likely heading to CWRU. I agree with everything said in the last few posts, CWRU to me seems optimal for premed students, with the rich medical community, smaller class sizes, less competing for med school slots, ease of access to research (this can be important down the road for the application in addition to the MCAT, and GPA). We have had amazing CWRU alumni on our faculty and post graduate students. That being said, UMichigan grads walk our halls daily, and are superb too. Both are well regarded when considering them for admissions. I would go with Case, for the savings (medical school is crazy expensive). However, if you want your child to have the Big 10 college sport experience do that, as CWRU doesn’t have that - but they do have great pro sports, and strong D3 sports. My friends’ kids that have gone to UMich are very happy. Happiness goes a long way. The parent groups of current students at both institutions is really helpful to get a feel. Did your child have a chance to visit? If so, what does her gut say - I think I know what the pocket book says! Congrats to your daughter for such wonderful choices.
