help about the following programs

Published

hello everyone i am new on here i am 28 years old looking to get started in an accelerated program in which i can get in and is a credible program. i have a 2.6 or 2.7 as of now so these are the schools below that i have a chance at. (thanks to the person in another thread who provided this information). i am on the waiting list for the traditional bsn at my local community college but after thinking about it i have a bachelors degree so i might as well work hard for 15 months in accelerated and get it done. so im new to the applying to nursing schools but i am wondering what is a good school and one that have a high acceptance rate. also, trying to see if i can get in soon hopefully in the fall. if anyone has attended, currently attending or have heard about the following i would love to hear your input.

the schools i was thinking about right now was university of oklahoma and university of new york (no gpa requirements seems too good to be true)

thanks for your help in advance
