Where are the best schools in NH for RN and BSN degrees?

Published

Hi, I have a GED and my prerequisite classes in Algebra, Chemistry and Biology finished. I want go for a degree in Nursing and have searched online for RN Programs in NH and I keep finding online schools with bad feedback. I wouldn't mind going to school online but many of the reviews I've read are bad. Can anyone please help me find a good school in NH (preferably near Portsmouth) that offer RN or BSN programs? Advice welcome, :confused: Thank you.

I'm leaning towards to just go for a ADN first since the school (Great Bay) is closer to where I live and then switch to a BSN Program. Any thoughts?

I think that's an excellent idea. I was actually on that track to begin with. But then PSU began thier BSN program right at the right time for me. I will be in the first class to graduate there.

I am 43 years old and I figured, why wait if I can just do it now. And I had all the pre-req's finished. I had thought ahead because I knew I wanted to transfer somewhere for my BSN, so I was taking the classes I knew would transfer to most 4 year colleges while I was doing my pre-req's for my ADN. It just happened to work out right for me.

Just call the school and get started! You can do it.

Is there any MSN direct entry program in NH (apart from UNH) for people with a degree from other fields?

I think Franklin Pierce offers that. Check out thier website.

Yes! These programs have become more popular and there are more schools that offer them BUT don't go into it if you're looking for a "recession proof job" Lots of people rack up tons of debt and then can't find work. There have been layoffs in a lot of the hospitals.

What were the best/worst parts of nursing school? I am thinking of changing careers (I'm a male, by the way) and going into nursing to help 'make a difference.' I went to school and got a degree in Business before - I imagine that the coursework will be challenging. I plan to pursue it part time if possible. Any advice/recommendations?
