I don't know any information on neither HU nor, CU programs. I wish people in this area used this site, to offer there advice and experiences to programs in this area.
I did alot of research on HU and it's expensive.
I wish they did too! I can't seem to find any nursing students or grads from Howard. Catholic University is even more expensive! I think I'm going to look into University of Maryland-Baltimore. They have a program at Shady Grove in Rockville.

I graduated from CUA. It is expensive and it is ahrd to get scholarships , especially if you have other degress. SOme of the instructors do not look favorable on older students because you have already been "molded". You do get a good education, you do get challenged academically, and it is a good environment to learn because everybody is going through the same thing. I had trouble with one instructor who is not there now. It is challenging, especially if you are working. I worked full time while in school and do not recommend it if you can help it. The work they require is demanding. I do feel that after I went through the program that I felt ready to take my boards, but you still have to study for them.
