TNMommy 131 Posts Dec 19, 2007 I left a post about this also. I thought that it was great news too. I am not sure how they are going to do the clinicals though. Are you going to apply for the 2008 program? I am still taking some pre-reqs. I want to get them out of the way before I apply to any program.

The home page just states something briefly. They are supposed to be posting some new info later. Probably as it gets closer to summer.

nursesherry 44 Posts Dec 19, 2007 Yes I am going to apply for Fall 2008. I was just getting started on Excelsior but this will be so much cheaper. I think it will be worth the wait. I plan to clep out of some pre-reqs. I am already an LPN but I don't know if they will have a bridge or not. It will be great if they do.
~FutureNurse~ 254 Posts Dec 20, 2007 Wow! That is so exciting. Well, I am waiting to hear back from Walter's State for their Spring 08 program, I should know something next week or so. If I do not get in there, I am going to be applying to : LMU, Roane State, Walter's State (again), Tennessee Weslyean, Carson Newman and the new program online. Thanks for the GREAT info!
