Best accelerated programs/ Prereq questions!

Published

HI Everyone!

I graduated with a Public Relations degree a few years back and have been working in a very corporate world - I knew I wanted to go into nursing since my senior year in undergrad but just now I am able to afford to take classes again. I am looking into going into an Accelerated BSN program and I still have to take all the pre reqs. I enrolled into 3 classes this fall and plan to take another 3 in the spring and then the last science i need next summer. - so I will be ready to enter a program next fall. My problem is a lot of applications are opening now and a lot of the programs say that they prefer to have you finished most pre reqs. My GPA in undergrad was a 3.6 in PR.

If I apply do i even have a chance without any finished pre reqs even if I show proof I am on track? Has anyone ever been successful doing this?

What are the best accelerated programs in NJ/PA/DE?

Thank you!

each school has its own policy. You should talk to the school's advisors. Some won't accept your application until all the prerequisites are done, some others require to finish at least all science classes.

In general you should have A and P 1 finished before you apply, but check with the schools you are applying to. There are many, many good schools in the area. Pick one that will cost you the least amount of money, and one you live closest to. These things are the most important. PM me for more info, I went to school in the area.
