mercer or georgia state

[nurseryt]

i was just wondering if anyone went to mercer univ. or georgia state and could give me some pros and cons. i live in atlanta so ga state would be very easy to get to and i know that the pre reqs for mercer would be in macon i was just wondering if it would me worth my time to move to macon for my pre req or if ga state has a good nursing program? the other thing is the cost ga state being a public school the tuition is way less than mercer if i have financial aid i could work it out. But anywho i just wanted to know if mercer would be worth my time and MONEY because i heard that mercer students are hired quicker than other schools is that true? or does ga state have a good program.

I suggest Mercer, 100%. They are switching from a 3 yr to 2 yr BSN program for Fall 2009. All your prereqs must be completed prior to beginning since the 2 yrs will only be nursing curriculum.

I am about to graduate from Mercer this December and it is the best 6 semesters I have ever had! You will definitely be prepared to be an RN upon graduation.

Good Luck!

Here are my stats for anyone that is interested:

GPA: 3.79 (overall... unsure of how to calculate program)

NET: 91

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a question, if you already have a bachelor's degree what classes does GSU use to figure your program gpa for the accelerated track?
