private nursing school vs. community college???
Hello everybody, first of all i wanna thank you all for reading this.
i have a few questions about private schools vs community colleges.. well i currently applied to a private nursing school that offers BSN degree that allows me to finish in only 3 years. but their tuition is extremely expensive. the entire program costs $116,000... i'm not sure if it's worth it for me to pull out my private loans .. plus i'll be in huge amount of debt after i finish nursing school. the community college in my area also offers nursing program but they don't have BSN the highest degree they offer is ADN.. its a lot cheaper but there's a waiting list. I'm 22-year old i don't think i want to waste another 2-3 years waiting to get into the program. i want to get my degree and start working within the next 3-4 years. if i take the faster route which is attending the private school i will have to borrow up to $110k and will be in huge debt.. if i take the slower route which is attending the community college, i will definitely save a lot of money but end up wasting more time.. im extremely confused at this point.. if any of you can help me out here give me some suggestions i'd be really appreciated it!
