hello, mom&student and welcome to allnurses.com

brcc is projected to start the asn program in the fall of next year (2007). they are in the process of hiring a new dean now. they advise their prospects to enroll in the associates science or general science programs to receive pre-reqs. you need to contact them for further information.

good luck.

I went to the rn meeting yesterday oct. 16 @ brcc and so far the school starts in January.

To get in you must have:

english 101

college algebra (math 110)

psyc 201

a&p 1

and a fine art or humanity

To graduate you must have these in addition to the nursing classes:

enlish 102

statistics 1

a&p 2

microbiology

psyc 202

No speech or chemisty is required but if you are getting your bsn you need both of them so you might as well take speech for your humanity.

Do have to have taken six hours or any crap like that for admission or application to the program prior?

Where can I find info on this online?

There is no link yet because the program has not been accredited yet but will be by March and that's when applications will be taken. Information sessions will be held all week and have been going on for a while.

Did they mention anything about deadlines for applying for the nursing program once it is accredited? Are they giving out applications now? I have been trying to get in touch with someone at BRCC for more information but nobody was very helpful:o . I kept getting transferred and put on hold!:angryfire

Applications will be available in March 2007 and I don't know about the deadline. Call and ask for Ms. Vallette in the cypress science building.
