I would really recommend that you do yourself a favor and at least visit the University of Delaware located in Newark, De. It is located about 45 minutes south of Philly right off of Interstate 95. UD has one of the most beautiful college campuses in the US. Total student enrollment is about 18,000 but it feels much smaller. Each years nursing class totals about 130 students. It has a state-of-the-art nursing simulation lab. OOS tuition and fees is about $25,000. Although it is a state (Delaware) supported university it is privately governed and the majority of students are from OOS (NJ,PA,NY,MD). Newark is an excellant college town and Main Street runs right thru the campus. NYC, Philly, Baltimore, and DC are easy to get to. Graduates from the program who perform well have gotten jobs at top rated university hospital systems (i.e. UPenn hospital, New York Presbyterian/Cornell and Columbia Medical Centers). UD is a hidden gem for Nursing so I would again recommend that you should add it to your list. Check out their website at UDEL.edu. Best of luck to you in your college search.
