NON Direct Admit Nursing Schools

DD20 is interested in nursing. These forums have been really helpful in developing a list of direct admit programs, and we are checking those out. But we realized that we may be overlooking some good choices where students apply for nursing after freshman year (for example, SUNY Stony Brook). We are looking in New England and Mid-Atlantic (live in MA).

DD is a B+/A- student. More A’s junior year, so nice trend upward. Taking ACT this spring but standardized tests are not her strength. Her stats look good enough for some of the direct admit schools, but it’s not a slam dunk. A priority for her is to attend a “real” college/university with a full range of students and activities, so that rules out some of the smaller colleges with direct admit nursing programs that would otherwise be a match stats -wise.

Any ideas? Thank you.
