Unsure of ESU program

[GroovyKick]

Sorry for the long text, but im very anxious right now

My parents have pushed me into nursing at my local college, East Stroudsburg University, in order for me to save money I'm still not exactly sure if nursing is my route of choice but my mom loves it. I have little choice in my parents' decisions for college. The local college is...okay, but there are several turn offs from it.

I got a letter of NCLEX pass rates below 80 percent which I know isn't good, but if I work hard, I'll be fine. The student body is also a bit questionable as there tend to be parties a lot from whay I have heard but I could care less about that. The budget cuts are what scare me. I love music as I play guitar and want to move forward with my education on that as well, however, the school is eliminating all orchestra and choral music departments as well as others such as physics.

Im scared to go, but I have little choice as my top choice, bloomsburg, closed it's doors for nursing and I'm just about out of options. My parents also will not allow for me to dorm as dorms add extra costs so they want me to stay home until I go for my masters in nursing and even then, I'm not sure of their devision of that aspect as of the time being. I would go for nursing as I'm following my parents advice, but I'm a nervous wreck at the moment.

The school's tuition is $9k, but after financial aid, it will reduce to let's say $5k to $6k per year. That's not bad, but I'm missing out on my love for music which I'll have to take classes outside of school and lose the opportunity to dorm and make connections as a freshmanin another college. The nursing program at ESU shut down a few times for reasons beyond my knowledge, but what would happen wit budget cuts within the next few years? If nursing is cut, I'm definitely going for bloomsburg. Someday I'd like to transfer my credits to bloomsburg when the time is right, but I'd hate to disappoint my parents and lose their trust and I'll be paying a great amount for college loans, calculated at over $100k for all 6 years of college including masters in NP education. What advice is there for this situation?
