Looking for info/advice on NURSING SCHOOLS in BOSTON

[kait454]

OK so the deal is that I am currently earning my AA in Professional Studies at my community college in Jersey. I am looking to pursue nursing and earn my BSN from a university in Boston. Through my searches, I have only been able to find information on Massachusetts College of Pharmacy & Health Science. This school offers a 32-month program. I am looking for any information anyone might have on this school and/or any other Boston schools that have a BS program available for those who haven't already earned a bachelors or RN certificate elsewhere. Thanks!

The following schools come to mind in the Boston area for BSN:

Simmons College

Northeastern University

Boston College

UMASS Boston

Don't have much info on these schools as I went to UMASS Amherst for my BSN. Hope this helps though!

Thanks, Dolphin. I went to Boston University for my first semester of college and absolutely loved it - unfortunately, they don't have a nursing program! I'll have to look into the ones you mentioned...

Just wanted to let you know that there is a MCPHS accelerated program in worcester if you already have a BS degree...it's a 16mth program, i'm in it now and i am very happy.

just DO NOT go to the MCPHS program in Boston...it is falling apart. CRUMBLING. two more professors just left the school. THAT MAKES A TOTAL OF.......

5 professors who left in a span on one school year. because of problems within the program. I think there are only 3 or 4 professors left...

hmfp.

glad i've graduated from there!!

curry college is another that is about 15 minutes from boston. they should accept most of your general ed classes that you have already taken for your aa. a few friends have graduated from this program and although it can be a tough program they have a great reputation. good luck!
