Broward college Nursing applicants vs Nova( Winter 2014.)

Published

Hello guys!

So I got into the nursing program at Broward college. :)

I am excited and very grateful to have got in the first try! I'm contemplating Nova South Eastern University now. . I have all but one of their requirements (Nutrition class) to get in Jan 2014. I hear great things about both Broward and Nova. Nova is VERY expensive. . and Broward isn't and is actually still a great program I hear. On the other hand NSU offers a BSN first shot rather than Broward offers only ADN first then you transition into BSN (stupid in my opinion but whatever). If my goal was only to obtain a BSN I wouldn't be in this predicament but my goal is to receive my masters and pursue into an NP program one day. I just feel although Broward College is cheaper I don't want to shoot myself in the foot in the long run and sell myself short of my dream? I have also looked at scholarships for Nova... they are minimum like $1,000 here and there and not even guaranteed. Where as the program itself is about $50,000 although appreciated not much help you know. I know the greatest investment is education! I don't mind but is Nova really worth all my money? Just a thought and concern I wanted to post on my behalf. Any thoughts or useful advice Nurses or Nurses to be ?
