hello, i need help deciding which university has a good nursing program fit for me.
i got accepted three universities, TWU, SHSU and PVAMU, i only have two classes left before i can apply into nursing school, i just wanted to ask which nursing school is really good and would be worth my time.

What are their NCLEX pass rates? What are their attrition rates? What are the costs of attendance to each one? Honestly, where you get your degree isn't really going to matter that much. If you have an RN license and a degree, then you're just like everyone else no matter where they went to school.

PS: How about enlightening us as to what schools TWU, SHSU and PVAMU refer to?

My friend goes to PVAMU and it is known for being one of the top HBCU colleges. But I heard the nursing program there is terrible and I hear a lot of people don't recommend it. I have no clue about the other universities so good luck finding a school!

Respectfully disagree with PP. TWU is a stellar program (both locations) and their grads are highly recruited. Take a look at THIS data on NCLEX pass rates for the past 5 years. It's pretty informative. Keep in mind that you may not be admitted to your first choice(s), so it's good to have a Plan B.
Sorry I was talking about PVAMU not TMU. And I only know the school because of their vet program but I can only assume they have a stellar nursing program since their admissions are so competitive.
