Expensive but easier to get into schools- Fear

[Clodoveo]

Hello everyone,

I just finished 4 years in the Navy and am returning to my hometown in Dallas, TX. I currently have 75 credits but they go towards an associate in computer science....I am going to start my Pre-Reqs this semester and have started studying for the HESI. My biggest BIGGEST fear is....the wait period. I know I am not the only one but I do not want to wait 1, 2, 3 years to get into an ADN or maybe even a BSN program....I decided to do this over Pharmacy and certain goals I want to reach at a certain time....

I have heard everyone say there are school that have no wait period and aren't as competitive and in it for the money, I wouldn't mind going to one of these schools as I will be using my GI- BILL, and I don't mind what state. I am willing to work hard and live anywhere in any condition if need be, as long as I don't have to wait years........

Could ANYONE provide me with the names of these schools across the nation? Preferably TX?

If you ever want to work at the VA or go on to pursue a higher degree, do NOT go to one of these for-profit schools. The saying "if it's too good to be true, it probably is" applies here. There are so many stories of people having their degrees withheld because they can't pass ATI or other modules. The school will keep charging you for more modules and keep your degree. In the end, you have spent thousands, you have no degree and you can't sit for the NCLEX until the school releases your degree.

Caveat emptor!!!!
