UTSW: the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas I did not visit them for I am not in the USA. the stipend UTSW provide is 28,000 and Emory 24,000.

Which school to choose? I want to do organic chemistry or/and medicinal chemistry

I am an international applicant and am not able to visit them at this time.

Four PhD offers: OSU: medi chem; EMory: chem; UTSW: chem; Stony Brook: chem. I want to do medi chem in the long run. In OSU, I do medi chem. In UTSW I do chem and its chemistry program is closely related with biology, which is very important to medi chem. Emory has a very good comprehensive ranking and good reputation. Stony Brook is in a good location. It is a difficult decison for me as to choose medi chem or chem as my PhD major and which institution wo choose? what is your advice?
