New student-from an mba to nursing

Hello everyone! I can't express how helpful I have found this site to be. I graduated last year with a Master degree in Business Administration only to find out while working in a medical center business office that I want to be a nurse. I made the difficult decision to go back to school to get a nursing degree. Sometimes I feel like the six years of education I previously worked towards is all a waste now.

It wasn't until I began searching for nursing schools that I realized how incredibly difficult it is to be accepted. I have spent the last year taking pre-reqs. After being declined acceptance to an ADN program, I was accepted to an LPN program, which I start August 24. But I have applied to Troy State in Alabama in hopes of getting into an ADN program.

I am absolutely thrilled to begin the challenging journey of learning nursing and look forward to someday working with some of you amazing people!
