Hello, I am a student from Connecticut and I was hoping to get some feeback on the schools I plan on applying to in the fall. I am very interested in Clemson, Villanova, Penn State, Pitt, Jmu, and U. of Delaware. My first SAT was 1330 (new sat) and I am still waiting to hear back from my second, I have a weighted gpa of 4.1 and I will have taken mostly honors and 7 AP classes by the time I graduate. I am interested in attending nursing school and I wanted to know if anyone had any personal experiences at any of these colleges or what my chances of getting in might be.
Thanks
Are you looking for Direct Entry nursing schools? Or are you fine with programs where you’re pre-nursing first, and then get “promoted” into the nursing program?
You have a lot of OOS publics and costs will be high. How much will your parents pay each year? Ask them, please don’t guess.
I definitely prefer direct entry, but I would consider liberal arts schools, I know that JMU is one of those. And as far as cost goes my family has been saving up for me for a long time and I have enough to go to any of these schools without loans, but i would also hope to go to graduate school. So while tuition is not as big of an obstacle for me, I would rather be able to save some money to get a maters degree.
If by JMU you mean James Madison University then it is neither direct entry nor a LAC.
In nursing, or are you thinking of a degree such as an MBA?
My aim would definitely be in nursing, I would like to be a nurse practitioner
