   I am interested in hearing what your thoughts are on the cost of the program? I know you mentioned it scares a lot of people away. But for someone who will need to take out loans to afford tuition - does it seem worth it? I have been getting a lot of...

   Thanks this is super helpful! It’s great to hear other perspectives and compare options. There are so many students who get accepted into these expensive nursing programs and take out the loans without thinking twice about debt. It seems like it is j...

    jnniemeyer replied to jnniemeyer's topic in NP Students

    That’s awesome, what school was it? In California the state schools have limited seats and are very competitive to get into because of their low tuition fees. Students often end up on waiting lists for several years before even starting the program.

    Thanks, this is super helpful! I have explored lots of options and the ABSN is the fastest way to start my nursing career, especially considering I have just turned 30. Ideally I would love to work in a shortage area or commit to a loan repayment pr...
