Deciding - Penn Valley versus Research

I am debating between PEnn Valley and Research and would like any comments/feedback on either or both. I was accepted to several schools and eliminated all except for these two for various reasons. Obviously, there is the difference in ADN versus BSN between PV and Research and with Research I would graduate in 2010 and PV earlier in 2009. Other than the earlier grad time and the ADN versus BSN, what other differences do you think I should consider? If any experience or thoughts or things you hvae heard about either would help in considering please share. Thanks for whatever anyone can offer.

Re: Deciding - Penn Valley versus Research

You may have already made your decision, but thought I would chime in anyway. I too am facing a similar decision (JCCC or KU Med). I've heard nothing but great things about Research's program, and they do offer the tuition forgiveness program if you agree to work for an HCA hospital following graduation. They also offer significant scholarships that are worth looking into. My friend will be in the class of 2010 and she only has to pay $500 in tuition for her first semester thanks to plenty of scholarships. Good luck with your decision if you have not already made it!

Re: Deciding - Penn Valley versus Research

I'm sure it's probably too late since it is not September, but I have nothing nice to say about Penn Valley's program - it just gets worse the farther into you get. I finally quit and went to a BSN program. (MoWest) passed boards on the first try with 75 questions.
