North Carolina Nursing Schools and Programs
The "Tarheel" state of North Carolina is full of mountains and can take you to the famous Outer Banks where Blackbeard the Pirate’s ship went down. North Carolina has the infamous Blue Ridge Parkway which winds its way through the Appalachian Mountains. That state is well known for its sweet native scuppernong wines and North Carolina BBQ. The famous Wright Brothers made their first flight on the NC coast. The locals are welcoming and the state is very supportive of upcoming nursing graduates.
North Carolina schools have top notch programs and the most distinguished universities and colleges as well as technical and community colleges. There are options of receiving a diploma from teaching hospitals as well. Since North Carolina is the fourth fastest growing state in the nation, officials are well aware that the nursing crisis will get worse and have a plan of attack. North Carolina has created many incentives to fill nursing jobs. Scholarships and special loans for nursing students are available and employers are increasing salaries to increase and retain staff. North Carolina is proud of their educational systems and are very supportive in helping you reach your nursing degree goals!
