Regis v. MGH-How do I choose

[swein0]

I have been accepted to Regis and MGHIHP for Direct Entry Nurse Practitioner Programs. The difference between the programs I know of are the start dates, small difference in prerequisites, and obviously location.

Would anyone have any insight in which program is better and why?

You'll get a good education from either one, with good clinical placements and lots of resources.

Apply to both and see which one gives you the most financial aid. Don't forget to figure in cost of living (don't forget that car insurance in MA is one of the highest in the country) and commute costs.

Thanks Grntea! I got into both programs and trying to decide which one to go to. I already put my deposit down for MGH, but it was only 500 dollars and in the long run I know that won't be much. We don't hear back until the summer for financial aid therefore its tough now to base the decision on that when the deposit for both schools is due before hand.

MGH. There is no comparison IMHO.

Without a doubt MGH.
