My own cost $10,100 a semester? How much is yours?
93.00 per credit hour X 67 hours, (NS and prereqs) plus 15.00 per semester for fees and a max of 112.50 per semester for labs and such, plus 17.50 X four semesters for malpractice insurance. It isn't to bad because I go to a CC, but it also has a 97% pass rate on the NCLEX!
Out-if-state students pay 278.00 per credit hour!:uhoh21:I actually paid for 3 extra hours because when I started computer class was req'd, an the next semester they dropped it, but they also up'd the labs for micro to 2 a week and increased the hours for that course, and I had already had it! I don't know about books, I have bought alot of mine used on Ebay over the years, next semester they are offing a bundle w/DVD software so we can load our entire semester of books onto our computer, so I will be buying new for sure, about 300.00, but worth it!
I am going for my ASN at a Private University. When it is all said and done we pay almost 40,000. That is books and tuition, no wait list, extremely high first time pass rate record, outstanding reputation with local hospitals. Facilities, in my area, pay top dollar for students from the school I attend. All of our instructors have their Masters, we have 8 instructors. Small class sizes, 24 max in a class. The least amount of experience our instructors have is 25. The most experienced nurse has 35 years in house experience, 10 years in instructing.
It is expensive but we are paying mostly, I see now, for the school image and not having to be on any wait list.
