Picking the right School!

Published

Hi! I seriously need some great advice! I am currently enrolled in Southwest Tn Community College & would like to pursue a nursing degree. I'm 24, no children, but would like to enroll in an accelerated degree program. Southwest, as well as many other schools, have long wait lists, so it's been a bit discouraging! :no: A friend of mine is enrolled in Concorde, I'm sort of considering their 15 month RN program, and then on to Union University's RN to BSN program. Is this a good idea? Also graduating from Concorde career college, would I be able to find a job as a nurse? Please help! Thanks!

Is there a Rasmussen by you? Tuition is a bit more than community college, but no wait list, books included in tuition and if you currently have your LPN you can achieve your RN in 9 months!

Since when does SouthWest have a wait list?? This must be something new...
