Choice between Saint Anselm, Anna Mara, Franciscan, Felician, and Southern CT for nursing

<p>I have been accepted, now deciding. Which should I pick?</p>

<p>Which one is the cheapest for you?
I wouldn’t pick Felician because its base level is very very low- the top 25% students hit 450 on their CR and 25% have less than 360… Not likely to let you actually graduate as a nurse.</p>

<p>There is a huge difference in size and culture between Southern CT and the rest. I know people who have been very happy at Anna Maria. If you a small college liberal arts feel, I would visit there. You probably should try to visit all schools you were accepted to if money is not a factor. Try to talk to some faculty - you will know where you fit.</p>

<p>Anna Maria students passed the NCLEX on first taking by 94%, Southern by 91%. The rates are close, but there are huge differences of philosophy between the schools. What are the facilities where your floor time would be? You have chosen several small religious schools and one large state school. Where will you be most comfortable? Have you visited the schools? Is Southern OOS or IS tuition?</p>

<p>Nobody can answer this but you and your family. Consider price as well as which school you feel most comfortable at. Re-visit the schools if you are unsure.</p>
