Northeastern and MGH IHP Direct Entry MSN programs

[soontobenurse2024]

I just got accepted into both Northeastern and MGH IHP Direct Entry MSN programs. I can't decided between the two so if anyone has any advice that would be amazing!

Hi ! Congratulations!

My daughter attends MGH DEN program and I can say so far the program has been very good (she is in her 2nd semester) Professors are very helpful and available. Administration is very responsive. The only downside it is very expensive.

She had a friend that attended Northeastern DEN. Finished the RN portion , passed the NCLEX and liked the program. The one downside to NE is in order to move on to the masters NP portion you need to work for a year or 2. I understand the reasoning but if you are practicing as a nurse and making very good money I think it is hard to go back to school and get the masters degree. Her friend is not going back. Not because she didn't like it but because she is making great money.

For my daughter , she wanted to go straight thru and attain the masters - no stops.

Hope that helps! Good luck!
