<p>Is it better if I go to UCI for my RN
Or
Go to CSULB for my RN </p>
<p>I am an awaiting freshman and want to be A nurse practitioner but do not know which Is a better choice. In the end I would like to transfer to UCLA to get my masters in nursing.
U would like any advice on this topic and anything that has to do with my major on being a nurse practitioner</p>
<p>I do not know how good each program is, however, I think it is better to graduate from a UC rather than a CSU especially since you plan to go to graduate school.</p>

<p>Not sure if that might be helpful. You got into UCI’s program? I’m jealous. That was my dream school. Congratulations!!!</p>
<p>To summarize the link I gave you, I’d recommend UCI’s program, which I believe focuses more on preparing you for graduate work or education beyond a four year degree, whereas the cal states are designed to put nurses out on the floor after four years. I’ve also heard, although I can’t say for sure, that it’s a lot harder to get classes at cal states. Also, with long beach, you were admitted as a “pre-nursing” major, right? This doesn’t guarantee your admission to the nursing program, but at UCI you’re already in a nursing program right now. If you’re interested in grad school, I’d definitely recommend UCI. (I want to be a nurse practitioner too!) But don’t take my advice to heart, because I’m in the same boat you are; I won’t actually start college until fall.</p>
<p>What were your stats, if you don’t mind my asking?</p>
