Hi, my name is Melinda and I am currently a SAHM to a soon to be 3 yr old princess. My husband is in the Navy and we are stationed in San Diego, originally from Kentucky. I went to a community college last year for my pre reqs for nursing and after being told that they wouldn't accept half of my credits and I had a wait list of atleast 3 years and they lost their national accredidation I decided to transfer to Maric College and get in and out in 2 yrs. We just decided that my husband is getting out of the military after this enlistment so the pressure is kinda on to get in and out before his tour ends in 2011. I just took my entrance test, which I stressed way too much over (LOL) and completed my entrance essay and now I am waiting until January to start the rest of the stuff so I can begin classes in February. I am so anxious and can't wait to start. I've been hanging out on the boards all evening and you all seem so wonderful. Is there anyone else out there that plans on going or is going to Maric?

Melinda, welcome! :balloons: I'm not familiar with that college, but I have a son who will be 3 in a few months and I was an Army brat. lol This is a wonderful board, but do keep in mind sometimes there will seem to be more negative talk than positive talk. I think that's just due to the nature of a forum - people are more likely to complain than come on and talk about a wonderful experience they had. It sounds like you have everything in order! Keep up the great work and I look forward to seeing your "I graduated!!!" post.
