bsnanat2, I'm not sure about the scholarships since I just found out I got in this week. I contacted Samford about applying for the January term, and got a prompt reply that they were still accepting applications for the fall term. If you go to the...

I received my ADN at a community college, then a few years later my BSN at a larger university. I wouldn't trade anything for what I learned at my C.C. There were several hospitals in my area that would hire an ADN as a new nurse as opposed to a BS...
