BYUI's program is very very very very very very very very hard to get into!
...and that goes for any of them (they have 3).
If you are looking for the same general area in Idaho....ISU is fairly difficult to get into the BSN program...mainly due to high GPA and the fact that they keep changing their criteria about every semester or so....
If you want to do the step by step through ISU Tech...it is a little easier to get into than the BSN.
In Idaho Falls, you can also do a step by step. I am finishing up my prereqs in prep for enetering the LPN program myself. At EITC, as long as you have completed your prereqs with a minimum 2.8 GPA, they simply place you in line according to your application date. EITC will be offering a bridge RN starting next fall, so theoretically you can go to EITC straight through until (if) you are ready to do a BSN. Then ISU has programs for RN to BSN that are fairly easy to get into.
If I can help answer any other questions, please let me know. I worked in the BSN Nursing Dept at ISU for several years, so I have a pretty good grasp of all the area programs/requirements/value, etc.

Thank You Everyone! :)
