associates degree

Welcome! U need to see a counselor at the schools u are interested as they all have different requirements. If u decide to pursue an ADN, u probably have most of the pre-req's done and it requires a NET test (nursing entrance test) to get u on the wait list. Most of the community colleges offering an ADN have a 1-2 year wait. If u pursue a BSN, u will have more pre-req's to take but u might finish quicker. Peruse the college websites to get some general nursing program info and then make an appt. to see a counselor. Hope this helps!

I am lil confused about your post. If u have an associates degree (AAS?)already than most likely u have completed most of the gen ed classes and some of the pre-req's. Do u want to pursue an ADN or BSN? $250 per credit hr is steep! It's way cheaper at WCCC, HFCC, Schoolcraft and OCC for an ADN program. And any classes at Davenport will be costly too. Schoolcraft has an LPN program. And they as well as HFCC have a program that has LPN's become an ADN. But definitely look at the colleges I stated websites for their info and then speak to a counselor. I hope this helps! Good luck!

Look into Owens Community College, located in Toledo, Ohio. 99% pass rate on the nclex. Small enough class rooms....the local hospitals would rather have an Owen's grad that a U of T grad. Ohh...I don't work there...just an alumni.
