DD was accepted to Georgetown, Villanova and Boston College nursing! Very grateful–but with the coronavirus, we will never get a chance to visit all three again. Not sure how to make the decision…any help with would be highly appreciated! Pros/Cons for nursing program–or colleges in general.
Go to Georgetown! Best school out of all of those.
Based on its number of recently graduated nursing majors, Villanova may offer the most robust nursing program from this group:
Villanova: 248
BC: 102
Georgetown: 22

If you ever saw the BC nursing students in their maroon BC scrubs at all of the major hospitals in Boston, you would have your answer. The very best hospitals in entire the world. Too many to mention.
.
They are an elite group and they have a school within a school culture. It’s really a different experience.
Plus don’t under estimate being able to go to ACC level football hockey and hoops games on the weekends right on campus.
And jobs when your finished. They line up to hire into the Boston hospitals and research hospitals.
