Nursing programs with traditional college feel?

The programs can contribute to that campus feel.

In one program my daughter applied to, there were more liberal arts classes required the first two years along with everyone else. In the program she is attending, it is heavy science and nursing classes. But in that program, a nursing student was homecoming queen and the nursing school has a float in the parade every year. That’s just an indicator of campus involvement, lol, and says nothing about the program.

You might also want to ask if the nursing students are encouraged to do extra curriculars. At one program, that my daughter instantly disliked, the director said they discouraged their students from too many activities on campus. I specifically asked about that issue at other programs, and they said they wanted their students to be part of the campus however they could balance it.
