Ok, I am a freshman in lone star college cy-fair. I am in pre-nursing courses. Well, there are a different set of courses to take to enter the associates at my college then there would be to get a bachelors elsewhere. I do not want to transfer to a school too far because I do not want to quit my job. It may take longer for the bachlors, because I started under the associate plan. If I changed to bachlors I would have to take some different coures. I plan to only work weekends after I get in the nursing program. . I plan to ultimately get my masters and specialize in women's health. But I am trying to decide if it is risky to take only courses for the bachelors, then not get accepted to it. I have a 4.0 but am not sure whether to bank everything on going for bachelors before associates, I do not have time to waste and I need a degree under my belt. As a safety net, I am taking a online course these summer in intro to A & P, even though I will be taking A &P one and two next year. If I decide to go for associates, I will do the rest of my school online. If I apply for bachelors programs, I will be applying to downtown houston medical center colleges. Does anyone have some advice?
