   ST. JOSEPH’S HOSPITAL SCHOOL OF NURSING

FINANCIAL FACT SHEET FOR NURSING SCHOOL

The following table reflects an estimate of the costs incurred by nursing students during enrollment in the Diploma- Based Nursing Program.

Potential applicants are reminded that nursing students are required to have independent transportation to clinical facilities.  Public transportation is very difficult since student clinical hours are often scheduled for very early morning - sometimes as early as 6:30 AM or in the evening, occasionally until 7:00 PM.
