oceanblue52's post in Columbia or NYU for nursing: worth it? was marked as the answerBoth of these schools have great info sessions if you are able to attend. If you are doing the 1 year program at Columbia, they do offer quite a bit of scholarships, although I recall it still being about 50k to attend, and that's without living expenses. I don't remember NYUs financial aid program, but I ended up not applying because it was also very expensive. I know of one nurse that did well at Columbia and has a good job, but she had a very good network of people to work off of. Browse the NY forum to get a better idea. My sense is that NYC and all surrounding areas are VERY competitive job-wise. Do your best to attend the info sessions if you can; they will give you a better breakdown of cost.
