Hello everyone!
So I have recently gotten accepted into the Fairfield University accelerated nursing program. And I also "conditionally" accepted into St.joseph's. I have also applied to quinnipiac and southern. Has anyone went through these programs? Is one better than the other? Better prepares you for the NCLEX exam? I got "conditionally" accepted into st joseph becuase they have been real sticklers about my pre-requisites...I had to fight for every single credit and they refuse to take a class I have already taken. Also, I try to contact people there but they never respond. While fairfield has called me up personally and have been soo nice to me from the start( but it's an hr away from home). I just wanted to know some input about these programs if anyone has went through them or currently going through them. I would love to know more about the programs!!
Thank you!
Buyer beware, BSN

You could try going to (collegescorecard.ed.gov).
This government site was first published by the Dept of Ed in 2015 after a prolonged legal battle with many of the listed schools who would have preferred that non-transparency remain the status quo.
What makes this site valid in starting to evaluate any school is that the information listed was supplied by the schools themselves.
So be methodical and financially judicious about you academic choices. That decision can make for professional satisfaction or debtors prison.
And there's no guessing which one is preferrable.
