physics sophomore trying to transfer. medical physics in mind after graduation

Raioneru

Hello,
I'm a physics Major, and I want to transfer to another school.

I have 4 choices:

University of Wisconsin - Madison
University of illinois at Chicago
Indiana University Bloomington
Purdue university

here is what I would consider:
I'm a physics student but what's more important to me, is Medical physics. I want to go graduate school and obtain that degree.

Madison, bloomington, and Purdue, offer great undergrad research (true???) and they also offer: Introduction in medical physics as a course.

Illinois doesn't offer Introduction to medical Physics but it's the biggest medical schools, and they have affiliation with cancer centers etc...
also Chicago is a big big city and beside the crimes(...) it has a lot to offer.

Purdue and Madison both have Medical physics graduate programs but purdue's is not Campep-accredited, Madison is.
also chicago is the home University of chicago which offers also the Msc in MedPhys

so as you can see there are so many variables that I really dont know what to think, so I'm asking for people advices on this
thanks in advance

I would caution against mixing up graduate and undergraduate programs. Just because you complete an undergraduate degree at a particular school doesn't necessarily translate into any advantage to getting into that school's graduate program.

That being said, doing your undergrad at a school with a medical physics program naturally has some advantages in that you could get involved with a medical physics research-project, attend medical physics talks, and get to know professors in that field. The important things for undergraduate work are that you get a strong physics foundation, you do well in your classes, and that you enjoy the program (people who enjoy what they do tend to be a lot more successful than those just slogging through).

ok so if I put aside the graduate perspective, the best solutions would be to choose between Madison and Purdue then?
