About This School
California Nurses Educational Institute is a private for-profit institution located in Rancho Mirage, California with approximately 200 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $23,231 per year.
Worth considering if you're set on a nursing career and want a small, focused program — with only 114 students, you'll likely get more hands-on attention than at a large community college. The median debt at graduation is a relatively manageable $14,750, and nursing wages in California can support repayment, but at $21,278 per year in net price, you'll want to confirm exactly what credentials you'll earn and how they align with California licensing requirements before enrolling. As a small for-profit school, do your homework on job placement rates and NCLEX pass rates, since those details will matter far more than the school's marketing materials.
