Hi, can anyone please suggest the names of colleges and universities that have direct 4-year entry nursing programs (preferably on the West Coast)?
There is a list of direct entry nursing schools in the Nursing Major forum.
The west coast may not have many Direct Entry except maybe at some small private univs…many of which give lousy aid. The west coast nursing programs at the public univs, particularly in Calif, are impacted.
What is your budget? It’s not really practical to spend a large amount on a nursing program if you have less expensive options in your state.
For California, the schools that I know are direct admit are UC Irvine/UCLA/CSU Fullerton/San Diego State and Azusa Pacific University. As stated by @mom2collegekids that all are highly competitive and impacted. Although not on the West Coast, take a look at Arizona State University.
