Are you looking for a two-year program or a four-year program. That makes a big difference....

I would like to go to a two year. I hear that St. Vincents is a good school. I heard you can take an Extended Program there where you can take all the pre req's. But its also very expensive. So I was thinking of going to a community college for pre req's then apply to St. Vincents. Its going to take a long time either way I choose. Any suggestions are helpful?

My cousin went to St. Vincent's. It was incredibly tough, but I think that is with any nursing school. Naugatuck Valley Community College also is a good nursing program to check out. I don't know where you're located though.

St. Vincents looks like a really good school. I think I might go to Gateway Community College and take courses I need to take and maybe apply to St. Vincents. I havent taken any college courses so I think my chances of getting into St. Vincents is next to nothing. They probably only except people that have college experience and have taken their Math, English and Sciences. Everyone that I have talked to about St. Vincents so far has great things to say about them.

I think you should try to apply anyway because you just never know. When I applied 4 years ago, I did not think I had a shot. I got accepted in the extended program.

The extended program allows you to take anatomy and physiology 1&2, psychology and other classes that you need and you have to maintain a 2.25. I am not sure if the gpa is stipp 2.25 or if that program still exist. It does not hurt to apply and see what happens. I know there is an open house April 5. You can go and ask all the questions that you have.

Good luck to you. I responded to your other thread.
