<p>What are my chances of getting into penn state main or pitt main first year?</p>

<p>Any other colleges in North Atlantic region that would accept me with my credentials that has a good nursing program?</p>

<p>Have you looked at the University of Rochester? They rank #12 in the top 30 programs.</p>

<p>You don’t need top-notch programs. If money is a concern several of the PA state schools have programs with good reputation/job placement (like West Chester and Bloomsburg). Other PA schools with good reputations include Moravian (beautiful location and campus), Alvernia and Temple. Thomas Jefferson in Philly also has a very good program.</p>

<p>@Shawnward19‌ Are you a junior or a senior? I’m guessing a junior since you haven’t yet taken the SAT or ACT. You are lucky that PA has many direct entry nursing programs in both public and private colleges/universities, and most of them are good. You might want to post in the Nursing major forum, or in the PSU and/or Pitt forums. However, until you know SAT/ACT scores, it will be difficult to know whether PSU or Pitt’s main campuses will be appropriate schools for you to apply to.</p>

<p>I live in pittsburgh but have really always wanted to go to penn state or pitt. Money is not a concern but more of an advantage since I already have most of mine paid for (thank god). I also wanted a bigger university. Something a step up from high school. So pitt penn state and ohio u are probably my top three at this point</p>
