And be aware that if you do not already have a green card, then the LPN course will not do you any good. You will not be able to work with that in the US.
There are many nurses in NY that speak multiple languages, so that should not even be an issue. Not sure who you spoke to.
You are going to have to get an evaluation done of your previous schooling to see what you can get credit for, and what needs to be retaken, in addition to the nursing program. Suggest that you start with that, the schools will want to see that first.

I'm a nursing student guy, will be graduated next year. Don't worry about your gender. The nursing program usually asks of your GPA, ACT and NLN before you get in. However, it would be better you do some surveys or ask the competent one before you apply.
Good luck !

Hi there to everybody,

Now is the little problem, i dont know how i am going to start, base on your experience, do i need to take any sat or ged? i am not graduate here but i graduate at my own place which is malaysia. What is the first step i need to do? take pre-nursing course? how long it gonna take? i studied Business adm b4 back in 5 years ago. Should my maths be good?? and how much it cost for the school fees normally, the one i try to attend is like chinese school which located at the NY 'Manhantan' which i never know iwhere it is but i willing to take some advice first b4 i travel.
Any suggestion ??
