Penn State Mont Alto Nursing Program-- Input Needed!!!


I graduated from HACC in 2006 as an LPN. Considering going to Mont Alto next year for the RN. Those of you who have gone there, or are currently attending the nursing program, what are your thoughts on the class, theory, instructors, paperwork expectations, exams, etc...??? Also, what is the average gpa to get into the program? Are they looking for 4.0's or is gpa not the only thing they look at??

I am looking for a school where the instructors WANT the students to learn and be able to utilize the material covered. Not one where they want to see how much paperwork/busy work they can throw at you and still expect perfection on exams and clinical paperwork.

Any and all thoughts, advice are greatly appreciated. I've sent for the nursing program info and am going to start getting my required information together awhile.
