CN4207, I have a similar experience to you--my undergrad was also in music. I did have a good GPA coming out of undergrad which differs from you, but I made good grades on my prereqs and a decent GRE score (I don't even remember what the score was). ...

Well, I have done everything that I can so far. Obviously we can't upload our RN licenses because we don't have them yet, and I am taking CPR at Marquette. I would just get everything else done before you get to school.

I rented a one bedroom on the east side for a little under $800/month. Parking costs extra though ($50-100). There were one bedrooms near campus for that price or cheaper, but the area was really sketchy. There is this annoying rent assistance progra...

They don't offer the MSN courses in the summer. http://www.marquette.edu/nursing/documents/MSN-AcuteCare-NP.pdf Notice that all of the courses are Fall or Spring. So if you only took 6 credits each semester, it would take you 7 semesters (3 1/2 yea...
