So I have been reading a lot about different colleges, and I so far have completed all of the pre-req's needed to attend a bachelor's degree program to earn my BSN registered nursing. However, I have been rejected from all the affordable options near me like UNR and Western Governor's. I do not have a bad GPA, but it is not perfect and I did not have the work experience needed for Western Governor's. Anyways, I am looking into Carrington College in Reno, Nevada. I looked at the course catalog and in both options (they offer Reno option A or B), I have completed nearly 30 of the credits that seem to be what the program begins with. The program is around 22 months long, and I do have an appointment to talk to an enrollment counselor next week, but I was just hoping that someone on here would know if that allows me to progress forward more quickly, or have a later start when a cohort finishes their classes that I have already taken, because it seems as though at the very least six months could be shaved off of their program due to the courses I have taken. And I also have read that my courses are more beneficial to me, as I plan on progressing to a bachelor's and even master's degree after receiving my RN, and people are having issues with the pre-req's from Carrington transferring. So any help would be great!
