Hello everyone!
I am new to this forum and was wondering if anyone could give me some advice on going back to school for a nursing degree 10 years after graduating from college. I live in Southern California and graduated in 2009 from the University of California, Irvine. My degree was in Criminology and honestly, my grades were not that great. I just need some advice on where I need to start to get back in to school to get my bachelors in nursing.
I understand that I will need to most likely need to retake my prerequisite classes in science and math but I am honestly not even sure where to start. Should I go back to a four-year college or to a local community college to complete those classes and then apply for an accelerated nursing program?
I was thinking I could go to my local community college and speak with a counselor and start that way.
Does anyone have any other advice they can give me? I really appreciate it. Thank you.
