SCO vs. OSU

Southern College of Optometry or The Ohio State University? That is the question.

On Monday, the VP of Student Affairs at SCO visited with Jason's Pre-Optometry Club. Usually schools will send out a random representative, but we were fortunate enough to listen to one of their VP's. He also serves on the admissions committee as well as head of the scholarship committee. We walked him out to his car after his presentation, and he told Jason that he should be expecting an invitation for an interview as soon as they receive the rest of his application. Jason hasn't been able to send in his essays yet because of his busy school schedule. Jason has always liked SCO for some reason, even when we first started looking into schools he started gravitating towards it. Then he turned his thoughts to Ohio State (with more than a little encouragement from me) and has landed an interview there on October 23rd. WHAT TO DO?

I know, I know. You're all thinking that he hasn't even been accepted anywhere yet! Well, it appears his chances are pretty good at both schools and they are both great schools for different reasons. I secretly hope he only gets accepted into one so that we don't have to make a decision.

You should go for Ohio State because their website looks more professional.

That's funny because I thought the same thing. Hmmm...

Jana - you only want him to go to Ohio State to be closer, not because the website is more professional looking. :)
