Nursing schools where there is no waiting schools

coqui · Jan 27, 2006

There is a school in San Juan Puerto Rico. You can obtain your BSN in 24 months. It is an English trimester program. The school is Interamericana Universidad de Puerto Rico. The school of nursing website is http://www.metro.inter.edu/servicios/academicos/prognotradi/englishtrimester/enfe/nursing/index.htmlThe total tuition is about $18,000. I graduated in May '06 and passed NCLEX. You have to option to exit with an ADN. I applied to the school a week before classes started. Not many know of this school and that is the reason for a lack of a waitting list. Most students are found out about the program via word of mouth. The program always starts in August. Good Luck!

Community College of Southern Nevada (las vegas) doesn't have a waiting list. You are selected on a point system. They accept about 100 ADN students each Spring and Fall semester. If you dont get in, you must reapply to be considered again. Points are given based on general Ed GPA, prior degrees, health care experience, NLN exam score, and pre-req courses completed. There (as of 2006) isn't a difference in points for where you have taken your classes. As long as they transfer to the college, they are considered into your total points. Residency is not a factor. I got in on my first try!

I just received my letter of acceptance over the summer at Columbus State University in Ga. They accept 90 students a year if you have a grade point average of 3.2 or higher you would have no problem getting in. Throughout the state of GA is about the same

Hi there,

Just wanted to let you know I am attending a nursing program at Becker College, Worc. ma, its and associate program and there is not a waiting list and you probably could start in Jan. because they offer the first nursing classes then as well.

I know Worc. state and Quisigamond community colleges both have waiting lists yrs long

Also, assumption college just started a nursing program i believe last year and I am not sure if they have a waiting list, but wouldn't think so seeing its pretty new. Hope this helps

Words of Advice!

If you are looking to get into an RN program that doesn't have a waiting list, make sure to check if they are accredited first. There are many schools around the country that are not accredited, thus they don't have a waiting list. You can definitely still get a job as an RN after graduating from an unaccredited nursing school; however, some hospitals will check up on it, and furthermore, if you plan to do pursue your masters or doctorate, those schools will most likely not accept you if you received your degree from an unaccredited school. Just some words of advice.
