I heard from quite a few nurses that McMaster's program is terribly organized, and based mostly on case studies.

Specializes in Acute Care, Rehab, Palliative.

I know that McMaster has the better reputation but I have no first hand knowledge of either program.McMaster is affliated with the McMaster Childrens Hospital which is a really fantastic teaching hospital.

I think that every nursing faculty can make some adjustments to their curriculum :S I base my judgments on universities from my colleagues who have been to the institutions you refer to.

My friends from McMaster enjoyed the student life and their experiences, mostly because they had to move away from home and got the experience of independence. I never heard them complain about the faculty or program itself. For the most part, they seemed to enjoy everything about McMaster. My friends from York graduated (very very late) because they were in their last semester during the strike they had last year. They often spoke negatively about the curriculum and said it was really "disorganized." I'm not too sure if their opinions were based heavily on the fact that the strike occurred at the same time, but thats the impression that I got from them! Anyways, I suggest going on a campus tour or even seeing if the nursing programs are having an open house where you can get a first hand look at some of what the curriculum has to offer. I know that my school offered this!

Good luck and congratulations with your acceptance!!! I hope you end up with the best choice :D:D:D
