Piedmont College or Augusta University? Both Athens Camps

kgm3 · Nov 6, 2017

I am also in the same exact spot with you! I am currently enrolled in Piedmont College and just got my acceptance for nursing school last week. I am going to send in my Augusta nursing application tomorrow, hopefully and find out soon from them. I know Augusta is a lot cheaper and is a four semester program not five like Piedmont. I wish I could find out more from real students.

I know! I think I'm leaning toward Augusta, but I'm really conflicted. Please let me know if you hear from any current students and I'll do the same!

I've decided to choose Augusta over Piedmont. Have you heard back from Augusta or made any decisions?

I have spoken to some people and they both sound like great schools. I have however also chosen Augusta over Piedmont. I was accepted but was only given 2 weeks from Piedmont to accept my spot but since I have yet to hear from Augusta I have lost my spot in their Piedmont's program. I chose Augusta because it is a bigger school and I feel like it would have more opportunities for me. I am currently a student of Piedmont so I hate to leave but I also heard that they just do not have the same equipment as their main campus in Demorest. Sometimes they have to drive to Demorest, Ga for a lesson. Piedmont also has a strict schedule Monday-Friday. I have a job I hope to keep so Augusta's schedule seemed more appealing to me. I am very nervous and still waiting to hear from Augusta's nursing program! Good luck to you also, hopefully we both will get in!!

I actually have heard back from Augusta and am excited that I decided to go that direction. I hope you get in!
