well it was just announced that tuition at URI will go up 8% compared to 4% for RIC this fall. as long as each of the colleges will accept prereq's from each other, i would take the class where it is the cheapest..most likely ccri..not sure about the waiting lists for the program at each..r u sure you want to go into nursing..not to discourage you but it doesnt look like a very promising position anytime soon!
