@blue652‌ , i know that we’re bouncing around, but with your SAT and other stats, and willingness to attend school near Cleveland…have you considered University of Pittsburgh? You could very well qualify for full tuition, which could bring costs around $18-20K. In previous years, CWRU was able to offer up to $20K scholarships to Nursing students. Pitt’s program is even better than Nursing at CWRU.

You should also consider applying to U Penn. They pledge to meet 100% demonstrated need. Penn’s School of Nursing is absolutely amazing, a biased opinion.

The best UPortland could offer would be ~$17K merit money. Seattle would offer about the same, with a total price tag just below UP, though living in Seattle is more costly. Since it is in the area, you may want to consider Gonzaga. Their Nursing school has modernized quite a bit in the past few years. And USF has a terrific direct admit Nursing program; based on past years, they could offer you up to $19.5 of merit money, provided you apply ED.
