BSc Nursing

Hi, I understand the curiosity. There are actually so many hidden costs you would need to pay apart from the tuition fees of the BSc Nursing course. Though these costs completely depend on the colleges, some extra hidden costs are charged for hostel fees, textbooks & course material, field work & industrial visits, exam fees, library fees, student union fund in some colleges, etc.

No, the AIIMS Delhi conducts its own entrance exam for the BSc Nursing admission. The CUET score is not accepted by every college in India. Though you can consider many top BSc Nursing colleges through your CUET score, like Graphic Era University, Sharda School of Nursing, Apex University, Bareilly International University, and so on.
All the best!

Of course, here are some of my personal recommendations, you must read apart from your regular BSc Nursing syllabus:

• Fundamentals of Nursing" by Patricia Potter & Anne Perry.
• Ross and Wilson Anatomy and Physiology in Health and Illness.
• Clinical Nursing Procedures: The Art of Nursing Practice.
• Nursing Diagnosis Handbook: A Guide to Planning Care.
• RNotes: Nurse's Clinical Pocket Guide.
• When Breath Becomes Air by Paul Kalanithi.
• The Shift: One Nurse, Twelve Hours, Four Patients' Lives by Theresa Brown.
• First Year Nurse: Wisdom, Warnings, and What I Wish I'd Known My First 100 Days on the Job.

Yes, you can take admission directly for B.Sc in nursing in both Santhi college and Sree Anjaneya College.

In Santhi college, the free will be around INR 4.4 lakh for 4 years and in Sree Anjaneya College the total fee will be around INR 2.6 lakh.

No entrance exam is required for management quota.
