Disappointed about nursing school :(

[UofLchick]

Ive been so exicted about going to our public university. :) I got the financial aid I needed and I had great grades in high school, but I cant be admitted b/c I havent had two years of foreign language. My high school didnt even have foreign language classes. LOL. I was so looking forward to getting a BSN. Now it seems like my only option is to go to a "career" college and get my LPN (only takes a year) but its $16000.

My question is after I get my LPN can I go to a public university and get my BSN even if I havent had a foreign language class?

nah, I hear ya...I did the same thing kind of...all the ADN programs here had 18 month waiting lists...they would have been a lot cheaper...but I opted for a more expensive MN program...it started in May (right at the time I was looking) and is only 15 months! More expensive but worth it to me:)

Awsome . I know exactly what you mean. I really cannot wait that long. My husband gave me the opportunity to go back to school and it would be so unfair for me to take all that extra time just waiting. Besides, I don't really care about the money. I will pay whatever I run my student loans up to, little by little until I am done. Thanks for sharing your experience and reassuring me that I did do the right thing :)
