I am a college student at University of California, Riverside and am still Undeclared - Life Sciences going into my 3rd year there. However, I am struggling in some of my science courses and will be changing majors to something in the humanities area (most likely either Art-Studio or Psychology). My advisor and another counselor has told me that nursing and med schools do not just accept bio majors but ANY major as long as you finish the prerequisites and all other requirements for the school you're focusing on. Is this entirely true? I was planning to finish all my nursing prerequisites at my university while being a humanities major and graduating with a B.A. Also, the school does not have an undergraduate nursing program. If this was possible for any of you, please let me know and how you were able to go through the process. I would appreciate any advice given and maybe this post can help others too!
