看護学校に入るには

LOCATION

Are you interested in relocating and living on campus, or do you want to go to a local commuter school? Having the ability to move locations offers a wider variety of schools to consider while choosing a program close to home may be more affordable.

MODALITY

Are you interested solely in an on-campus experience? Do you want the flexibility of taking some or all of your courses virtually? Depending on your circumstances, it may be possible to attend nursing school online. However, you will be required to complete a preceptorship in a clinical setting where you are located.

SCHOOL AND CLASS SIZES

Do you want to attend a larger university with a recognized brand? Do you want smaller classes and more face-time with professors? When researching programs, be sure to look at the population of the university, as well as the number of nursing students in the program and average class sizes.

COST AND FINANCIAL AID

Affordability is another important factor to consider. In addition to looking at tuition costs, see what grant and scholarship opportunities are available through the nursing school.

PROGRAM QUALITY

According to the American Nurses Association (ANA), individuals should look at a nursing program’s reputation by ensuring it meets national standards, has accreditation from an approved national nursing organization and has a high pass rate for students taking the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX) for registered nurses.

RELATIONSHIPS AND CONNECTIONS

According to the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN), looking at faculty and institution connections is an important factor. Ask an admissions representative the following questions: Does the school have strong affiliation with clinics and hospitals? What kind of counseling from faculty members and administrators is available to help you succeed?
