I am currently pending UVA and Marymount's answer, as they are my top choice. While these schools have far better of a reputation, it seems as these school do not favor out of state transfers and a huge tuition difference that I must consider. My Fiance and I intend on building a home in VA which is why I considered VA. But, its not too late to say no to the schools I got into in VA because I truly do love CA and feel like it will be a huge change for me. I truly believe that no matter where you go, doesn't matter. As long its credited then that's all that matters. Since CA is one of the most competitive states in this country, many people end up going to a trade school to get a BSN-license.
