Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Nursing] From University of San Francisco

The tuition is $50000 and they have different levels of academic scholarships depending on your GPA and essay. I have been awarded the presidential scholarship which gives me $10000 per year and it was based on a GPA above 3.5. I have heard that there may be full scholarships given out but those would require at least a 4.0 unweighted GPA and a stellar test score. I believe scholarships may be available for international applicants but I would not be sure of that.

I opted for USF because it had the direct-entry nursing program that I had been aiming for as well as being one of the tops in the nation. There are only a few direct-entry nursing programs in California so USF was a top choice for me. As a low-income student, I was able to apply to a majority of my colleges without fees and USF had already given me an application fee exemption due to my GPA and test scores. In the end, I chose USF from other schools like UC Santa Barbara and Azusa Pacific University because I felt that USF provided me the best of everything and provided me with enough financial assistance to be able to afford the education.
