I went to Lehman more than 30 years ago and It has always had an excellent nursing program; I had many friends in it, though it was not what I studied. As far as I know, Lehman’s nursing program is still top notch. Plus, you can’t beat CUNY prices.

One question I have is where would you live if you commute to school? Hunter has dorms.

Another option, if you want to work this year and reapply next year, is SUNY Plattsburgh. It has a direct entry nursing program, which is excellent. Two of my children attend(ed) Plattsburgh and, between them, have many friends in the nursing program. The job rate is excellent. One of my D’s friends has been traveling the country, working at different hospitals while she tries to decide where she wants to live. She actually didn’t start out as a nursing major but changed majors after her first year.

Good luck to you, whatever your choice is.
