We assign every program one of four statuses so you know exactly what you're signing up for — ranked from strongest to weakest guarantee.
Guaranteed seat in the nursing major as an incoming freshman — no second application required.
Admitted, but must maintain ongoing conditions (GPA, science grades) to keep your seat.
Admitted to the university, but nursing requires a separate competitive application after you enroll.
General or pre-nursing admit with no guaranteed path into the major.
Narrow by state, tuition, SAT/ACT, NCLEX pass rate, accreditation, setting, and more.
Stack 2–4 schools across every metric that matters — tuition, selectivity, program details.
Heart schools, track your application status, and add private notes as you go.
Nursing school websites bury the admission details. We've done the research, called admissions offices, and verified each program's direct-admit status so you don't have to.
Browse all 347+ nursing programs, filter to your exact criteria, and build a list of schools worth applying to.
