I would recommend Rush University if you can make the most of the opportunity. The greatest benefits to professional development that I experienced came from reaching out to departments and forging my own path, the bachelors program provided little support in meaningful networking. The graduate programs are exceptional, however, I've not met many bachelor students who matriculated into graduate programs. They provide very little public info on graduate outcomes and that speaks heavily to the program.
Graduating from Rush University, with a Bachelor's in Health Sciences exposed me to distinct healthcare settings/careers I did not know about. Now that I am a graduate student pursuing a BME degree, I have a better understanding as to where I can apply my ideas and projects in a validated healthcare setting without being completely clueless as to who may utilize the equipment I perfect.
