About This School
Shawsheen Valley School of Practical Nursing is a public institution located in Billerica, Massachusetts with approximately 35 undergraduate students enrolled. The average net price after financial aid is $20,676 per year.
This tiny public program — just 35 students — offers a notably low median debt at graduation of $4,750, which is well below typical nursing school debt and suggests students aren't overextending financially. The net price of $20,676/year is worth scrutinizing against local LPN salaries, since practical nursing wages in Massachusetts are modest and you'll want to confirm the return on investment makes sense for your situation. Worth considering if you want a small, focused cohort and a straightforward path to licensure, but do your homework on NCLEX pass rates and job placement before committing.
