Question Things to look for when picking a nursing school?

I am going to get an Associate's Degree in Nursing and I'm starting to look at schools... What should I look for in a school? What kind of questions should I ask when I meet with the people in charge of the program? I want to be able to go in and ask intelligent questions and make sure I get the information I need. Thanks!

You should find out what their state board pass rate is, what type of clinical experiences you will get, and at what facilities, you could ask to speak with some graduates of the program, and ask them how well they feel the program prepared them to be nurses.
