How Many Schools Did You Apply For?

Published

I'm almost done with my pre-nursing courses. And because nursing applications deadlines are coming closer and closer, and I was wondering how many schools I should apply for. I just don't want to only apply for a couple of schools and not get accepted, when if I applied to such-and-such school I would get accepted. I know many people don't get in on their first shot but how many different schools did you apply for before starting a nursing program?

I was going to apply to four programs 3 adn and 1 bsn. I took a chance and applied to the BSN program and got in, Thank You Jesus :)

One, early admission application. It never occurred to me to apply to another one since that was where I wanted to go, and I couldn't bear the idea of not getting a response until April 15 (the traditional college-acceptance day in those years). I knew by November of my senior year where I would be the next fall. Load off my mind.
