Hello everyone


I'm new here. Alittle about myself. My name is Carolina. I'm 27 years old and I've been a massage therapist for almost 3 years. I enjoy massaging but I've become bored. I started school this fall. I decided that nursing is something that I would enjoy and I know I'd never be bored. I'm in the beginning of my prereqs and I'm up for the challenge. I took A&P in massage school but it's a lot harder now. I'm told that nursing school is hard to get into. Is that true? Anyway any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

Carolina

Hello and Welcome to Allnurses.com

Great to have you with us. Yes, most nursing programs have a waiting list. Have you applied to any programs? Enjoy the forums.

Hi Siri,
No I haven't applied to any programs. Right now I'm just taking A&P.It's been a while since I've been in school. So that is taking alittle getting use to, plus work, and a 7 year old. Have you heard of hospitals that hire you while you go to school thru them? By the way I live in Dallas, Tx.

I am not aware of any programs/hospitals in Texas, however, I can move your thread to the Texas forum for possibly a response regarding that issue, if you like.
