Top Rated Nursing Progra

[Chloe4856]

My daughter will be entering college in 2019 and we have visited a handful of Colleges in Pa and she wants to get her BSN in nursing. This is my first child going to college and there is so much good and bad on the internet about different schools and their programs. I found this forum in the hopes to get some feedback from past graduates and are still working in the field. My kid will flourish in more a small to medium type College and would be overwhelmed by a big university. We are trying to keep it State, as money is always a concern. I want my child to get her monies worth at a solid program. Any suggestions would help

Here is a list of the nursing schools in Pa and their NCLEX scores. NCLEX is the exam that is required to get licensed. The school's NCLEX pass rate is a good indication of how well the school prepares their graduates for the exam. Any school that has an 85%+ pass rate would be a good school to go to (100% is ideal with a significant number of graduates).
