Help me choose a PNP program! University of Michigan or Johns Hopkins?

[Danika R, BSN, RN]

I am looking for some input/feedback on choosing between University of Michigan and Johns Hopkins PNP programs. I have admission offers to both DNP programs and I'm very torn. Both programs set up clinicals for students and have great opportunities (Boston Childrens, St. Jude, CHOP, etc...). Mich is hybrid learning and acute care only while Hopkins is online and dual primary and acute care. The big kicker for me is tuition... Mich is about $25k/year while Hopkins is $55k/year. 

I've heard amazing things about both programs and I realize there is no wrong answer here but I am truly torn in making a decison! I would love ANY input on either program or post grad/hiring perspectives. For perspective - I hope to work in pediatric cardiology or PCICU as a PNP.

I’m only familiar with Hopkins, but you need to be close to Maryland for it to work. It may be online, but all the clinicals are local! I would imagine the same is true for any school that finds your placements for you.
