I have a slight dilemma by chosing a school where I want to go and whats the best for me. I will be graduating in December as RN, but want to start applying to schools to b a nurse practitioner. I live in NJ, and I am close to Rutgers, anybody know is it competitive to get in? How long does it take to finish the program?I looked into Monmouth University as well, but unfortunatelly it is very expensive Any other schools like in NY, like brooklyn or Manhattan is also a good location. Please help! Any ideas would be great!!
