FNP school-Georgetown vs USC

Published

Specializes in RN.

I’m trying to make a choice between these two schools. Both have offered a small scholarship, USC boasts that their graduates are offered at least one if not multiple positions after graduation. Anyone have experience with either program?

I’m currently at USC. Which one is cheaper? Or are you able to enroll in a school that is state funded? I don’t know if 100k student loans is worth it. I managed to pay-as-I-go and incurred only 20k of student loans.

USC includes 2 Courses of social work.
The first one is BS and full of fluff theories about human behavior. At least with the second course, I managed to enroll a social work class about “assessment and diagnosis of mental health disorders”. the entire course is about using the DSM 5. It’s a rigorous program and I love it except the cost haha

Professors are helpful and knowledgeable. School assigns your own advisor which are very responsive. USC found all my placements.

Both program share the same platform -2U.

The price is almost the same except if I went to Georgetown I would have to fly to the east coast twice for their intensives. I live locally so am wondering if USC would be a better choice since they are a main part of healthcare in Southern California, hence maybe more employable/more opportunities.
