Im new to this and im looking 4 advice about college

ok i know im new but i have a huge dilema and i guess this may not be considered career advice.....

im going 2 Spring Hill College because my parents forced me. and i want to go to the college with the better program. i personally want to go to Southeastern Louisiana University which everyone around me knows has a good nursing program. I've done research and found alabama's nclex passing percentages to be lower than louisiana's and SLU maintains about a 95% pass rate on the nclex and i've been unable to find a number for Spring Hill. Do i stay here or do i go where i want to go, but possibly lose the support of my family?

Thank you for any input.

Are your folks paying for your schooling?

Personally, I'd let them support me and study. You'll pass the boards if you're a good test-taker.
