Torn over which I should choose.. Hunter pros: - tuition $41,000 for NP degree - Good name in state but not out of state Hunter cons: - Not sure if they will find preceptor for me. Inquired and the response was "Students are encouraged to actively find their placements and preceptors. I have noticed that School of Nursing (SON) do help students who have not found any placements yet". Does this mean I won't be guaranteed a preceptor? - 3 years to complete FT NYU pros: - Good name worldwide - Apparently only 3% of applicants were admitted; exclusivity(?) which can benefit when I open a practice(?) - Has psychedelic research center.. a field I'm most interested in - Guarantees preceptor - 2 years to complete FT NYU cons: - tuition $132,000 for NP degree Id like to go to NYU except money is a pressing factor as I am the current breadwinner for 3 people; my husband and my elderly parents who have no retirement savings. If I go to NYU then in 3 years, I'll have $150,000 (still have 20k debt from undergrad) student debt and my husband has another $100,000 debt from school but we will both be graduated and earning at least $200,000 joint. Still though, that is an extreme amount of debt. Another option is to go Hunter and get an advanced certificate after graduating so I can still get the NYU or Johns Hopkins name but I don't know how impactful certificates are
