  6. Nursing or USC?

    petersalazar replied to petersalazar's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good points. I'm learning! In addition, I'm in the honors program. However, I won't get priority consideration when applying as a nursing major. USCs Law school is superb as well as their engineering...

  12. Premed or nursing?

    petersalazar replied to petersalazar's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  14. Nursing or USC?

    petersalazar replied to petersalazar's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Woah now I have a better understanding of how debt could hinder me in the long run. Indeed it probably wouldn't make sense if I pursue premed at USC when I could do that elsewhere for a much cheaper...

    petersalazar replied to petersalazar's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I knew both USC and NYU are pricey however I planned on using loans if I chose one of them. I don't think of it as in debt but rather I think of it as an investment in my life! I want to get the most...

    petersalazar replied to dlhonorio's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
