Hi there,

Just curious- did URI explain the “fine print” indicating that progression in the program is “competitive” even if a student meets the required GPA to progress?!

https://web.uri.edu/nursing/files/2019-Current-NUR-4.5-r-CS-fillable-1.pdf

My daughter was admitted to URI Nursing last year, and this fine print was enough to scare her away.

Although our tour info session also verbally “confirmed” the program is direct entry, and he said the “nursing students are guaranteed a seat for four years” (while their program is now 4.5 years), I remain extremely leery of all of it, for future applicants. Sounds a bit shady to me.

Well worth further inquiry when seriously considering this program!

Good luck!
