How to get into a nursing program?

Published

Hi. I'm new to this thread. But I need help with a situation. I am at a junior college in chicago. I just finished all my prerequisites and I was excited about becoming a nurse. After I took the Asset test I was already to begin. I am a straight A student and very dedicated. I knew that this program was limited, so that's why I did my best. I got a letter yesterday saying that I was not accepted. I am very disappointed and do not know what to do. I really want to know what other shools or places in Illinois besides trade schools offer LPN or RN classes that I can take at this time?:o

You could always look ahead to further degrees and other general education requirements that need to be fullfilled, I have been working thru the pre-req's for a masters program while in the ADN program, will only need Chem & human G&D to apply when I finish

Consider going to school out of state. I'm in Philadelphia. We have many nursing programs here, 4 ASN, 11 Hospital diploma, and 9 BSN programs. Try to look at other schools in close by states. There are many programs, not many teachers so find a program that is courting you to come in, you have options. Good luck.
