I am a resident of SC (working on getting my GA license as well) and am curious about AASU and it's LPN-BSN program. I haven't setup anything with an advisor yet and I am still trying to get some info and would love some feedback from current students. I already have a BA with a 3.1 GPA and a 3.75 with my LPN education. I *believe* I have almost all of the pre-reqs that are needed but it all comes down to those world religion/etc. kind of classes and whether or not they would accept those. I am curious as to whether or not my past education may affect my ability to get in (since all of my classes were taken somewhere else) and whether or not my GPA is good enough to get in....
Aside from that, would just love some feedback from current students. How are the hours? The teachers - are they supportive, knowledgeable, that kind of stuff. How are the clinicals?
Thanks in advance!

If you already have a BA Armstrong will waive the CORE requirements. All you need is ENGL 1101, ENGL 1102, College Algebra or Quantitative Reasoning, Statistics, PSYCH 1101, Developmental Psych, Into Bio or Chel 1 and 2 with labs, A&P 1 and 2 with labs, and Microbiology with lab. Well, now that I've written it out, it looks like a lot, but you should have most of that already.
Having a degree already will work in your favor as far as acceptance into the program, and you've got a good GPA. The hours are Monday and Tuesday 9-4 Wednesday and Thursday EITHER 9-12 or 1-4 and Fridays off.
I would definitely apply if i were you. I start the program this Fall and am really looking forward to it.
