[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Weird question, because these are very different schools.  George Mason is a large public school in the suburbs and Georgetown is a private Catholic school in the city.  George Mason tuition is $14,220 and Georgetown Nursing tuition is $71,698.  But Georgetown might offer generous financial aid.

There are other Catholic universities with nursing programs in the area, including Catholic University, Marymount, Loyola, and Notre Dame of Maryland.  There are many other Virginia and Maryland public colleges.  If you are considering Georgetown, then you might also consider out-of-state schools.

Undergrad degree is unimportant if she gets into graduate school.  But college is about a four-year experience.  Your education depends on professors, classmates, and classes outside your major.  Your daughter might change her mind.  The whole point of college is to learn and grow, not to pursue a narrow path you thought of as a teenager.

Save the money for graduate school and go to GMU.  Sure, if money isn't an object, a fun 4 yrs undergrad is great. But, most people don't have that luxury to have that fun experience at a pricey undergrad and have enough money to go to grad school.

Not having a loan after graduation >>>>> fun 4 years.[/quote]
