HFU nursing absolutely dropped the ball during the COVID pandemic. My cohort feels largely forgotten and gaslighted as we sit on our laptops day after day being told "there's nothing we can do" by admins when we ask why the program has failed to adapt to COVID while other universities have had success. Nearly all clinical opportunities were converted to virtual assignments which is completely inadequate in preparing one to become a nurse. Until things return to normal I highly encourage all aspiring nurses to seek out other programs which are actually offering in person instruction and clinical rotations with actual patients. Paying full price tuition to watch videos on my computer all day while coping with anxiety and doubt that I can handle real patients upon graduation is a bad joke. SARS-CoV-2 is not an acceptable excuse for nurses to provide inferior care, it should not be an acceptable excuse for student nurses to receive inferior education.

Holy Family University is a great school to go to as a commuter. The small campus provides a relaxing and friendly atmosphere. The nursing program requires the majority of your time, and some of the professors will make you feel incapable of completing the program. However, if you keep your chin up and work to the best of your abilities you will succeed!
