Thank you for all your comments. My son wants to have the big college experience and we have prepared financially for that. From my readings, u of a nursing grads all seem to find employment. TMC hospital network, Mayo, and others offer new grad programs. It costs more per year but it's a 4 year program, Cal State San Jose is a 5 year. San Jose though has a built-in residency program during last semester which may help in the super competitive job hunt after graduation.
