Well this is not exactly the answer you want to hear so it is probably not going to get picked because the best nursing school near Pittsburgh is WVU in Morgantown, West Virginia. WV University is geographically proximate to several states in the northern and eastern panhandles of the state.

Long story short: Any student living in or near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania is going to select WVU as the best nursing program in the area.

I have a friend who went to Gwynedd-Mercy College for nursing it is located near Philly.
