Picking Best Private School for Financial Help

[stingray_on]

My daughter will be a junior this fall and she wanted to be a nurse since she was a little kid. She is already working at a hospital as a volunteer every other Saturday and she loves it. She is a honor student and gets A's and B's in AP advance classes. Her aunt was a nurse was 20 years( now she a lawyer) and recommended San Francisco University which she visited and loved and she saw the SF State which she wasn't too thrilled about.

One of our best friends daughter goes to Sonoma College and pretty much got a free ride for nursing school. she likes UCLA and I graduated from Azusa Pacific University in Psychology but I understand they have an amazing Nursing School program.

Question: Best Private school that offers outstanding financial help thru loans and scholarships

we are middle class folks and we would love for our daughter go to a private school and get a BA with a nursing credentials but the cost is extremely high-over 100-150 K and although we will help pay the loans we prefer that she wouldn't be burden with a high debt and the alternative route Cal State Schools and Community colleges are in such disarray with State cuts, waiting lists etc. that we don't want her to get discouraged.

Looking for advice and suggestions- have anyone gotten some killer scholarships or amazing financial help in some private schools. And if some went Cal State what suggestions would you have? Thanks in advance.
