<p>You should consider whether it makes fiscal sense to spend a lot of money to get a nursing degree at a private or OOS school rather than at your local state school.
Once you get licensed, it doesn’t matter that much where you went to school. And entry level nursing jobs aren’t plentiful in some areas. I know someone who regrets her choice when she sees how long she’ll be paying off those loans.
