Massachusetts College of Pharmacy (MCPHS) Nursing Program.

Anyone here went to Massachusetts College of Pharmacy or know anyone who did? If so, what do you think of their nursing program?

[Ella2598]

I know this is late but I go to Simmons in Boston for nursing, and MCPHS does not have the best reputation. NCLEX passing rate is less than impressive and they have trouble getting into good clinicals.

I would look at Northeastern, and then Simmons and BC if you want to be in boston.
