Picking a school to apply to

Sour Lemon · Jul 28, 2016

HEY EVERYONE!!
So right now I'm working on my pre reqs. I want to apply to Southern Utah University. My husband wants to move there soon because its one of the only schools that has what he wants to do. I like the school. But its the only nursing school in that area. Every other school is about 3 hours away. I'm just scared that I won't get in and then I won't be able to go to school. What should I do?

Review their requirements and make sure you're competitive. Make sure you get all As in your prerequisites, for one thing.

Jfighty:

S.Utah University looks pretty good. Just looked it up on (collegescorecard.ed.gov). Look it up and others because there is quite a bit of diversified data available and that's in your favor.

You can lookup WSG also, and many others so you can compile a variety of choice and options at different price points, etc.

In addition, this is a school where knowing the NYCLEX pass rates are handy (that you'll have to ask the school), as you will have all the other important metrics that will allow you to evaluate them in context.

Remember knowlege is power and you should always stack the deck in your favor despite the Morman prohibition against gambling.

Much luck in school.
