Hello, I am a transfer student assessing my options for nursing schools in southern and northern california.
My options are SDSU, CSULB, LA, SJSU and SFSU. However, I am looking more closely at CSULB and SJSU.
Which nursing school is better?
Which is financially more rewarding?
What does each location have to offer?
I would like opinions from graduates from these schools or anyone who lives in these areas to tell me what it's like to live in those areas. I do live in Southern California but don't know if I should stay here or take a chance and move to Northern California! Thanks!
I agree with this statement. I have lots of buddies from sjsu and only a handful of the recent graduates land a local acute care position. Socal is tough too but there are much more new grad programs but wages ate generally lower in relation to rent and housing.
Yeah socal is much less tough than norcal, and that's saying a lot because socal is pretty tough. I would say that 35 of the kids who graduated in June last year have jobs now and 15-20 are still unemployed. Out of that 35, maybe 10 are working in other states and 5 are working in non-acute care settings.
Nonetheless
