Motlow State CC versus Nashville State CC

[asmith37]

I have been accepted to both of these nursing schools. I got accepted to the Smyrna campus for Motlow, which is about an hour and fifteen minutes from my house. Nashville State is about an hour from my house. I was reading on Motlow's site that I'll have to do my skills presentations at the main campus in Tullahoma, which is about 2 hours from my house.

I'm thinking Nashville would be the smartest choice based on location, but I would really love to hear from you the pros and cons of each program. Thank you for any info!!

You spend more time at the main campus at motlow than you think... I can't really compare the two since I've only gone to Motlow. Motlow has a good reputation.

I just finished the first year at motlow! it is great collage and has a great reputation, last year Motlow was #1 in the number of graduates who passed the NCLEX exam!

it is hard but doable, most of the hospital will prefer to hire motlow on other 2 years graduates from other schools.

I just finished my first year at NSCC and I love it. It is hard, incredibly hard, but I know I am getting an excellent education and that the instructors genuinely care about the students. Also, the first semester you are only there 3 days a week (1 day of lecture, 1 day of skills lab, and 1 day of clinical). Like I said, it is one of the hardest things that I have ever done, but I feel like I will be very well prepared for the NCLEX and as prepared as any new grad can be.
