Anyone attend a nursing school that...

[Coruscatedgirl]

doesn't require pre-reqs, that is the pre reqs are rolled in with the nursing school curriculum? How's that working for you? How long was the school? I'm checking out one that is 2 years (associates degree) and the pre-reqs are rolled in to the program. It takes 2 years.

So, those of you on this board who speak of "getting acceptance letters", are you going straight to nursing school and jumping right into clinicals? How many clinicals do we do? How long are they in weeks?

This school I'm considering going to has about one year set aside for what you would say were pre-reqs such as micro, a&p I and II, and even math, english and such! I already have a BS in something else, so some of this I can skip. Then, year two, we get into clinicals. Do clinicals go the entire year? Thanks.:redpinkhe

I'm not in nursing school yet, but I understand that NYU accepts bachelor-degreed applicants without prereqs. You would complete them there in the 1st semester before starting the Accelerated BSN. Check it out here, see around the middle of the page:

It's a 20 credit prereq semester ... kudos to those who take on that monster!!
