Anyone starting at DSON in April 2008 for the ADN courses?

Hey guys- I'm new to this website and I just wanted to know if anyone else is planning to start at the Denver School of Nursing in April 08? I just found out there is a new program offering the pre-reqs and the ADN all in 1. I'm going to find out more on Monday b/c I think they just got approved for this. Does anyone know if you have to have health insurance when you start school? I read something about it on their web site. I would love any info regarding DSON. Thanks!

That is very interesting if it is true!! I currently am working on my last prereq. and if DSON now allows you to attend while you are completing the prereqs then maybe I could start there earlier than I thought. When you find more information out Monday, will you pass it on? That would be great!! Thanks

Hey Trixy819!!

I just graduated from DSON w/ my ADN this past Dec. You have to have your pre-reqs done before entering the program and you will need to have proof on health insurance too!

Good luck... The school is tough and good luck!

Ok everyone, heres what I found out! First off DSON did just get approved to offer this program so theres no real details on class schedules and things like that. But what I do know is it starts April 7th and it cost 35,250. They are offering all the pre-reqs and the ADN program. If you've already taken some of your pre-reqs then of course you wont have to take them again and the cost will be less for you. The school is 24 months with 8 11 week cycles with 2 weeks off between each. This is all I know for now and they told me to call back in 2 weeks b/c that is when enrolment will probably begin. You do also have to take a test over Math and English and he said you have to be at a strong senior level to get accepted. I'll update you guys again in 2 weeks! Let me know though whos all interested in this program.
