What school to go to for nursing?!?

We’ve been to Case, Portland, Seattle, and Linfield. Case is head and shoulders above these other programs.
Merit aid at Case is very generous too. Portland is a small place, where Nursing dominates, so top merit offerings publshed by the school are simply not given to declared Nursing majors, since there is no need to draw applicants. It’s not nearly the program of Case, not even close. Seattle is a more interesting school, Jesuit, and in a better location. Clinical hours are greater than at UP, clinical locations are closer to the campus, and outcomes of nursing majors are better than Portland, though the program is smaller than UP. Linfield’s Nursing program is struggling to keep up right now, but the school is beautiful and the faculty we met are all amazing.
