This thread seems to be revived every couple of years so I thought I would give it a try again. For those of you who have finished the program could you give me an idea of the schedule? I have small children I will need to arrange childcare. I already have a bachelor's degree and have been accepted into an accelerated program but I am rethinking this due to the price and how fast pace the program will be. - How many days a week are classes -Clinicals are 2x a week? Is that 12 hours a day? -I also see many people saying it took a year to start the program from application is this true? -Does anyone know the acceptance rate? -What was the drop rate with your cohort? -How many weeks are each semester? (The ABSN I got into the "semester" is 8 weeks and that doesn't seem long enough to retain the information let alone learn it) I called last week and spoke with a nice woman, and I asked her a bunch of questions. I just didn't think of these and they are closed this week. Any info would be so appreciated. THANK YOU!

This is a long shot but I thought I would try here. I just moved to Southern NJ 30 minutes outside of Philly. I am looking for an ADN program that would meet nights and weekends. I have looked into Our Lady of Lourdes, CCC, Salem CC, Rowan, Rutgers, and Philly CC. None of them offer night programs. I am honestly shocked I have kids and a day program won't work. What do working single moms do? If anyone knows of another program please let me know.

Thanks for the info! That's very true, I am just so eager to start this new chapter. I guess I would love some advice from anyone who knows of any other schools with similar prerequs. I am also looking at Tennessee Tech U's Whitson-Hester School of Nursing. I know that this is a competitive field I want to make sure I have some options when it comes time to apply to programs. to shibaowner, MSN, NP - Compleatly unnessisary rudness. I thought this site was for people looing for positive feedback on questions.

I am a 31 year old looking to start my prerequisite this week. I have a BFA from art school looking to change careers. All of the schools I have looked at so far have so many prerequisite and many different ones from one another. I am in Westchester NY and am looking at Pace and Concordia. They have the least prerequisite that I have found so far. A&P 1&2, Statistics, psyche, Microbiology, and chem. Does anyone know of any other schools that has less prerequisite? I am willing to move anywhere.. A lower price tag wouldn't hurt either. I spoke with someone from Pace and he was really discouraging, telling me how competitive it is and how unlikely it would be to get in. Any help would be appreciated!
