Kinda scared at how much that will cost.

Are you applying?

[barbielaura]

Hey! How is the program going???? What are the pre-reqs you had to have to get in the program???? If you could respond and let me know I would :heartbeat it!

Thanks!

The program is going good. I am currently in my last quarter. When I signed up the admission requirements were...

a high school diploma or GED, Interview with an admissions associate, pass the accuplacer assessment (reading, math and english), NET exam, two letters of referral or recommendation, and a one page essay saying why you want to be a nurse. If you have any more questions just let me know.

The MS BON does not approve/accredit nursing programs. The PN program at Virginia College (Jackson MS) is accredited by the MS Board of Community & Junior Colleges, the same as all other state PN programs at this level.
