Advice for Loans

Any reviews about East Stroudsburg University? Their NCLEX pass rate is pretty good with a 90% pass rate last year and the year beforehand but so many people hate it. Campus sucks, bad teachers, bad students, surrounding area is old and falling apart, constant arrests, robberies, STD issues, bad everything except fun parties and having fun. I can't find reviews about the nursing program though so i really need guidance before I decide to go. Im a senior in high school too. I'm gonna ask people in the program when I visit too but this is for extra help if that doesn't happen. Tuition is over 8k per year and I'm 15 min away too. I'm stuck with either this college or Northampton CC with is 40 min away and 6k tuition per year. Parents don't want me to dorm or commute to which is 1h 15min away bloomsburg because of bad experiences and debt with my step siblings, they don't want me to take a student loan and horrible winters here in PA. Is the loan worth it, should I risk ESU for the easy trip, NCC because of its pretty good ADN nursing program, or bloomsburg and take a loan and risk the tax rates and paying extra for debt in the future? I want to go for my BSN withy options and then maybe NP in bloomsburg.

    Live at home and go to the college nearest you. Save tons of money on transportation, etc. Take out the smallest amount of loans you can get by with. Stay away from the party crowd, you won't have time for that! Personally, a 90% passing rate is not that good, but there is no reason why you shouldn't pass. Just study hard, etc., and make sure you are prepared. When I was in nursing school, I "put blinders on" and barreled thru. No smoking, no drinking, no recreational drugs, no "partying," ect. You want to get out owing as little as possible, and pass the NCLEX. Good luck to you, dear.
