   No I wasn't able to. I figured I would be able to check out apartments the same time as orientation. Do you have any advice on prepping for August?

   GMU is a good school! I got accepted to George Washington University for their accelerated BSN program and would love to go, but after days of thinking and many many pros and cons lists, I'm leading towards Penn State. DC and NoVa are such nice areas...

   nancy.wong replied to nancy.wong's topic in Pennsylvania

   Thank you! I'm surprised that they didn't have a set tuition specifically for this program. Tuition for Penn State is way less than George Washington University ($47,000) for this coming 2012 program!

    I got in for Fall 2012. I haven't received any additional information since my acceptance letter. I have looked into housing in the area. Seems reasonably priced for off campus places and distance doesn't seem that bad either. Only downside is that y...
