Issues related to school attendance of black baccalaureate nursing students

Schools of nursing are facing the challenge of educating diverse groups of students. This research examined the differences between Black and non-Black baccalaureate nursing students in the level of importance of concerns and issues related to academic, financial, psycho-social, and personal areas of student life. In this study, two data collection methods were used, questionnaire and interview. The greatest differences were seen in the areas of financial and psycho-social. Strategies to assist students need to start as soon as possible and continue post graduation.
