Deciding between BSN program on probation vs. new program with no graduates/NCLEX history

Temple has a relatively large commuter population, too, though as a much larger school, it may be less of an issue. I just know Temple’s medical campus is in an even worse neighborhood of North Philly (1.5 miles north) than Temple’s main campus. And there have been plenty of concerns regarding safety near the main campus, particularly in the past few years. That said, my grandson will be starting as a freshman at Temple in August, though not in nursing. Whether this is a determining factor depends on one’s comfort level with urban schools in sketchy neighborhoods. As I said previously, I really know very little about Hofstra.
