@complexmel Do you prefer direct entry nursing programs over non direct entry? Most direct entry schools are in the northeast, but perhaps you can find a few on this list that aren’t too far/that you’d be willing to go to.
OOS can be expensive but if you have good stats, you can get scholarships and aid. I’d recommend looking up the types of scholarships that are offered, how much each one offers, and the average amount students get. Make sure to add the cost of dorming and a meal plan too since that can easily amount to 15k or more depending on where you go.
