How many schools will you have attended?

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Published

How many schools will you have gone to when BEFORE you even get into Nursing school? As a military wife I've had to go to 5 schools to get my undergrad in Business Administration. Since I've started my pre-reqs, you can add one more school to the list. Since the school I'm going to now has no concept that not everyone can go to school during the day, I might get up to a total of seven schools. But only two to do my pre-reqs.

Ordering transcripts is going to be expensive.

I will be at 5 before I start nursing school but luckily all 5 give 10 free transcripts a year. I am ex-air force.

I've got you beat! Eight schools through the course of undergrad and pre-reqs. Six schools (in two school districts) just for pre-reqs as all of the science courses are horribly impacted in Southern California and my philosophy was to try to get into any of them at any school as the opportunity arose. More than the expense of transcripts, I was worried that just one school mishandling a transcript order would hinder my application. So remember to keep on top of them! ;)

2 schools. I did prerequisites &a Community College & now I'm transfering to a university to attend their nrsing program. However I did spend 3 yrs @ the CC. My brother &coworker were telling me that I should go to this other private College in town (bout15miles away). The problem is that I would have to spend 1 semester there taking more prerequisite courses AND THEN apply to the program. I was like NO WAY. I am not going to spend $12,000 a semester at a college when there is no guarantee that I will be accepted into the program, duh.
