Is National University (San Diego) a good, respectable nursing school?
Question by : Is nationwide university (San Diego) a good, first rate nursing school?
I am considering starting this January 2011 at National University right here in San Diego doing my pre-requisite courses and then trying to get into the NAtional University Nursing program to get my BSN and become an RN.
I also would like to some day go to grad school to excel in my health care career.
Is NAtional University a respectable school here in San Diego?
Will I be ready to get a job right away upon graduation?
Any comments, thoughts, EXPERIENCES, etc are greatly appreciated.
THANKS!

National University is one of the lowest ranked universities in the entire USA.
That could fit your 2.4 GPA, but you’re still likely to fail Nursing.

I am considering National as well for the BSN program. I have a friend attending SDSU. She knows one of the prominent Nursing instructors there, and the instructor said that National is a good choice. Coming from someone who has a Masters degree and 28 years of clinical and teaching experience, I would say is trustworthy. It does cost a lot, but you get your BSN in 22 months after your prereqs without waiting as long. National is accredited across the board. So…you can transfer to a university and earn your masters if that is what you decide to do. As far as getting a job after graduation…the economy is terrible for new grads right now because hospitals do not have extra funds to pay for their training. There are lots of nursing jobs available, but they want EXPERIENCED nurses. Hopefully, by the time you get done things will have changed a little bit and be better!
Good Luck! And get top knotch grades. That’s what I plan on doing.
