  11. Are you talking about the concurrent enrollment program with GCU? I am also considering applying to that program. All things considered I would prefer to do a BSN because you can enter a DNP program...

    No, it isn't too late. But just understand that you probably have a couple years of prerequisites ahead of you before you apply, plus 2 years in a program. Go ahead and get started! Working on...
