I currently have a B.S in a non-nursing field. I struggled in undergrad due to non-academic reasons, but now looking to get a BSN. I have retaken a majority of the required pre-requisites in order to strengthen my application and have a 4.0 in all of the classes I've taken post grad. However, the Accelerated BSN programs are very competitive and I am having no luck getting accepted into programs. Could it be a possibility/has anyone ever started completely over and applied to a 4 year college as a "new freshman" in a BSN program? Would it be possible to get accepted and then have the majority of my previous credits transfer so it would end up only taking 2 or so years instead of the full 4 because I have already taken all the basic sciences? Accepting ANY AND ALL advice!
