Thanks MaverickPrime! I'm doing as much reading as I can but most of it is still confusing....

There are so many schools but only a handful seems to have sterling reputation. Most seems to be either shady or re-branding of shady schools... if not the school itself, then their affiliate schools in USA or Europe.

There are different opinions regarding Integrated vs. Modular... but at least this is easy for me if I want to keep my Nursing job after training.

What do you mean by this? I'm getting a feeling you're talking about more than just the initial debt for training...
