College Choice Releases 2016 Ranking of the Best Master’s in Nursing Degree Program

May 10, 2016 | Posted by Roberta | HIT Feed, News |

College Choice200Follow and join the conversation for Nurses Week May 6-12 with #NationalNursesWeek, #NursesWeek and #SafeNursesRock.

College Choice (@CollegeChoice1), a leading authority in college search and rankings, has published its annual ranking of best master’s in nursing degrees. The ranking can be viewed here.

Katie Amondson, Associate Editor of the ranking says, “A Master’s degree in nursing is often a crucial step in either entering into a career in nursing or advancing a career of a mid-profession nurse. The most common Master’s degree for nurses is the Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) which is aimed at mid-career advancement. However, there are MSN options for direct entry into the nursing field, as well as RN to MSN degree options.”

The College Choice 2016 Rankings of the Best Masters in Nursing Degrees takes into account several key factors to ensure that you get the best rate of return on your educational investment. These factors include academic reputation, cost of tuition, net cost of education, and average first year salary.

“With our ranking of best master’s of nursing degrees, we aim to provide readers a clear sense of which are the best programs for nursing with an eye toward best return on investment,” said Christian Amondson, Managing Editor of College Choice.
