Brookline, MA
State of the art technology w/​faculty that want you to succeed.
Clinical placements are some of the best hospitals in the nation.
Located on a beautiful part of the water front in Boston.
Easy walk /​shuttle from North Station.
Food right on campus.
I don’t drive to school, but fellow students say parking is a bit tough sometimes.
Overall…
Well worth the application for any program they offer.

This is my grad school, so naturally this review is plenty difficult to write. I’ve been a student here since 2009, and I’m in the direct-​entry master’s of science nurse practitioner program in psych-​mental health nursing.
Overall, the education has been top-​notch, with some unnecessary/​ill-​designed classes (e.g. Community Heath) along the way. The clinical placements have been exceptional. I’ve been on the Cardiac Surgery Step Down Unit, a Med-​Surg Telemetry Unit, and General Med Unit all at MGH; the Lemuel Shattuck Hospital in JP; and McLean Hospital’s Eval Center for my advanced placement clinical. However, your placement depends upon your curriculum coordinator and the clinical placement coordinator.
They have Adult Primary Care, Adult-​Gerontology, Adult-​Women, Pediatrics, Pedi Psych, Family, Acute Care, and Psych Adult Tracks.
The program is intensive. 3 years full-​time, summers free to work or take classes. They do NOT help you get a job, but they do teach you good networking skills. It’s expensive, to the tune of 30,000K/year, in addition to books and supplies.
They offer some cool, fun classes: HIV/​AIDS Nursing, Mind-​Body Nursing, International Health, and Refugee/​Immigrant Health.
My year they accepted 100 students, major overkill, especially when you are all in one room. Privacy and autonomy relinquished. You do band together, because it’s like enduring bootcamp baby. Only the strong survive.
Any questions, shoot me a message!
