Question


Hello!!! I am new to this site and I just wanted to say hello to each and everyone of you. I am in the verge of finishing a bachelor in health care management and I have been thinking of going into an accelerated nursing program. But my question is, is it better to apply to the accelerated program or the traditional program. If someone can help me, I would really appreciated. Thanks.

Welcome. I'm going to move your question out of this thread to the main forum if you don't mind. That way more people might read it.

To answer your question, the accellerated program is probably best, because it's faster and takes advantage of the fact you know what college can be all about.

However it's very stressful and time consuming and moves at a very fast pace that is nearly killer. You have to look at your life outside of school and ask: is it relatively free from distractions? You will more than likely be unable to work at all during thsi time either.

Good luck. Feel free to ask questions .
