Do you want to become a nurse but don't know which school is the right one for you? Chamberlain College of Nursing may be just the college you're looking for if you want:

• A unique college where you will learn real life nursing and gain valuable clinical experience to prepare you for today's healthcare world.
• Small class sizes and lots of personal interaction with Chamberlain's experienced and expert faculty members.
• To earn your bachelor's degree in nursing in three years instead of four, allowing you to enter the workforce and start making a salary sooner than students enrolled in four-year programs.
• To gain quicker access to nursing classes.  Many colleges and universities allow you to apply to the nursing school only after you take all of your general education courses.

In addition, Chamberlain students get a jump-start on their nursing education by starting nursing courses as early as the third semester.
