@Mergirlc I followed up on those programs yesterday. The UCs that offer a BSN are UCLA and UC Irvine. I'll most likely apply for those programs in the fall. Good points about the CSUs. I'm thinking more long-term (e.g., clinicals, research, network) so the CSUs are not going to be my top choices. Since nursing has such a good ROI and the opportunities are endless to a lifetime, I'm confident at looking into programs like -Univ of Wisconsin -Georgetown -Univ of Penn -Duke -Univ of Michigan But this list is not complete, there are programs out there that have what I want--I just don't know about them yet. Thank you again! God bless and stay safe ?

Thank you @Mergirlc ! Feeling the love. I'll call up those programs today.

Hello, I am currently in the process of researching BSN programs. Let the fun times begin! At first, I considered the basics like NCLEX pass rates, location, price. Now, after going over it with nurses that I work with in the Emergency Department, I am beginning to consider other factors: -Is the program associated with a medical center? -AND is the program associated with a medical center that is a teaching hospital? -Are there opportunities to work in research? So far I've gathered that all of this is possible at U of Michigan. Does anybody know of other BSN programs like this? Thank you in advance for your help! Stay safe everybody! -Hunter
