    Well in the U.S rankings. Emory is 1st in the state, Mercer is 2nd and Georgia State is 3rd. I fell in love with Emory when i went for a college visit. I heard their program was incredible. But it's just so expensive.

    I know - I would love to go to Emory. I wonder if it's possible to get enough scholarships to cover tuition 100%?

    They have one big scholarship for the nursing program but its really really competitive. I talked to the financial aid office and they gave me an estimate on how much help I would get based on what my parents make. If you come from a family of 30k or less you get full tuition. If your family makes around 50k its about 50% tuition and so on. So my second best option is Georgia State which i heard is an awesome program.

    We would qualify for the full tuition because we have children....but that's the competitive scholarship right? Is that the one where you agree to work at Children's Healthcare? That would be amazing!

    The NEAT one for Emory is the really competitive one. I'm not sure how competitive the CHANCES is though. There's also the Opportunities scholarship if you are bilingual!

    hmm no idea. They just showed it to us when i toured Emory. But it's undeniable that Emory is the best nursing program in the State.
