Hi
Please tell me what is the difference between a University Program and a Community Program. Which is the better of the two ? Do we have to apply for both?
Thank you.

Usually a university hospital is a stronger program. But that's also going to depend on the community. Difference? One is directly involved with a university medical school. One might have an affliation.....
