i just got accepted to the east bay nursing program and i am actually trying to decide as well whether to request to go to concord or hayward. is anyone attending one of these schools who can tell me something about them? it seems like hayward is in a neighborhood that is not very safe but the school is very large. it also seems like it has a much more diverse campus and a lot more going on in terms of more resources on campus for students. but i also read that the school is a commuter school and the people who attend hayward don't really live in hayward. concord on the other hand seems to be in a very good neighborhood and does not seem to be a commuter school but it is very small. i would be afraid i would have a hard time meeting people since the student population is so small. -amanda

I just got accepted to the East Bay nursing program and am trying to decide whether to request to go to Concord or Hayward. Is anyone attending one of these schools who can tell me something about them? It seems like Hayward is in a neighborhood that is not very safe but the school is very large. It also seems like it has a much more diverse campus and a lot more going on in terms of more resources on campus for students. But I also read that the school is a commuter school and the people who attend Hayward don't really live in Hayward. Concord on the other hand seems to be in a very good neighborhood and does not seem to be a commuter school but it is VERY small. I would be afraid I would have a hard time meeting people since the student population is so small. I came to this site to see if anyone had any opinions on which nursing program is stronger (if either of them are) and also to see if people who live in these two places can tell me a little something about them. Thanks!
