Hello, I am starting my pre-reqs for the BSN program with National University in less than one week. I am transferring in with some credits from a community college. I was just told that they only allow you to apply 3 times to their BSN program, and that is it. (I live in San Diego where there is a BSN program and they have 2 other locations in Fresno and L.A. with the 23 month BSN program, but if I apply to those locations it counts as my "3 applications.")
I am wondering if anyone knows of other schools that accept National Univ. pre-reqs and their G.E., since they have tailored their education for their own program?
Any advice on National University or other BSN programs in CA or NV would help greatly. Thank you.

Hey,
I'm not sure if I'm interpreting your post correctly but it sounds like you are planning on applying to all three campuses at once; if so, you cannot do that. You can only have on active application at a time. Say you apply to San Diego and don;t get in, you can the apply to the same campus again in the next application period, or to another campus in the next application period. If that's not what you meant, then ignore me .
For me, I was able to apply to a couple of community colleges in my area with the pre-reqs I had taken, but I'm in Los Angeles.
Your best bet is to look at other programs you are interested in and make a list of all their pre-reqs, you can then see which ones you have and which ones you still need. Good luck with your application.

Hi Babeinboots - Yes that is mostly what I meant. I thought I would be able to apply to all 3, to increase chances. Thanks for your help. I am mostly concerned that due to the high demand to get into the BSN program, that if I do not get accepted after 3 applications, I have to find another school to apply to and I feel like National Univ. caters their pre-reqs to their own program which may further delay me getting into a BSN program if I need to complete more G.E. for another school. Hope that makes sense, too. I am trying to search for other schools but the pre - reqs and G.E.s are sometimes not listed the same as National. For example, their "information literacy" is an Eng. 202 + another class that makes up their "info. literacy"... *sigh* I guess one step at a time.
