Accelerated Nursing Site in Baltimore
Baltimore earned the moniker “Charm City” in 1975 because many considered it a hidden gem. Decades later, it still lives up to its name, quietly developing a distinguished reputation for excellence in both industry and medicine.
Today, Baltimore is home to approximately 2.7 million people, the 20th largest metro area in the United States, and it is the key economic center in Maryland, led by tourism, high-tech and biotech industries, and — most importantly for those interested in starting a nursing career here — medicine.
