General advice is only to take on as much student debt as you will make your FIRST year working out of college. If you're going out of state anyway, apply for out of state ADN programs at community...
I transferred semester credits to a quarter system. I actually received 4.5 credits for 3 credit classes. The only issue I would see happening is if it were transferring in the opposite direction. You...

The CNA experience is valuable to have going into your first semester of nursing school. That's really it. I can't speak for everyone but every CNA I know who keeps working during nursing school only...

Wow if the professor is advising you not to get the text they're taking away the opportunity to even teach yourself. I got an A in the full sequence of AnP. I went to lecture, read the full chapters...
