Are you in SD and is the program going to fulfill requirements for the CA exam?

Thanks!

I will be moving to San Diego the end of June. Yes OU's program is totally accredited and meets all of California's testing requirements for the NCLEX exam. Will you be attending?

Are you from the San Diego area? Do you know anyone that has finished this program? If so, did they give you any feedback? I'm excited and nervous.....

This program has my eye for sure. Like all pre-nursing students I have to finish pre-reqs prior to submitting my application. I'm looking at the 2nd degree program, this would be a career change for me, move from IT to nursing.

.

If you don't mind my prying, what is the cost of the OU program? Is there a wait list? There doesn't appear to be one mentioned on their site.

Thank you and good luck.

I am in the SD area. I do not know of anyone who has finished in SD yet, I will be in the third cohort of students here so there are no SD grads yet. I'm sooo excited and even more nervous. :uhoh21:

At my meeting with the counselor they said its approximately $32K...but well worth the cost of a 2nd bachelor in only 14 months! And they are a non-profit, unlike National Univ. There is no wait list but they are impacted as far as applicants goes (more applicants than spots but that is every where!!) I suggest you call them and make an appointment to meet with a counselor, they are very informative. :)

I have an appointment with them on 5/26 to review my transcripts. In the mean time I'm trying to knock out the pre-reqs at the CC. That has been an event on its own. I tried signing up for anatomy, but wasn't allowed because I didn't have the pre-req for the class, so now I have to get a copy of my transcript to review with them. What a pain right, I just want to take the class and finding micro, physiology and anatomy with open seats is tough.
