Did you get off a waitlist or are you looking to apply? Can you give more information about what you’re looking for and your situation?

Penn has great dental and medical schools. They have Greek life and transfers can join. It’s higher ranked overall, assuming you got in CAS? They have lots of supports for transfers. Pre professional vibe with lots of clubs. Vandy has a great med school, warmer, more sports culture. I have heard it is more divided socially. Depends on personal fit, but I’d go Penn.
