uicomp is supposed to get cards next year.. are they getting GI as well?
Westchester has 100% IMG's
UIComp has 50% AMG's and 50% IMG's..
peoria is a nicer city, much cheaper to live in.. very friendly program and teachers.. Its a place where you can be happy in.. People are frustrated in westchester..
But, westchester has some fellowships.. dont know how many end up getting them though..
UICOMP does place residents outside for fellowships
Both places sponsor H-1
Take your pick..
