hey! thanx a lot for the reply....i was wondering...wat is tht two-year thing UMBC has for people who plan to do nursing? http://www.umbc.edu/UnderGrad/Catalog/preprofessional_health.pdf that's the link and it says pre-nursing on page 153. I'm guessing its different from BSN..i'm really confused. In any case...I'm really on my own with this because my parents have decided not to support me. I was wondering if you could give me an estimate on the cost for attending and other expenses. Thanks so much!

hey ppl...im new to the forum and this seems like an awesome place to get some answers from what i've read! i'm currently a second-year student at CCBC Essex...i'm a biology major whos planing to transfer to either UMBC or Notre Dame in Fall 2006. The intial idea was pre-med....and when i visited these colleges they told me becos i shifted from business to pre med it would take me three years to complete requirements. The doctor thing is more my parents idea and I don't think its meant for me because I like more human interaction. I was looking into the field of nurse practitioner and am going to be doing some volunteer work to find out what its like. Does anyone here know if having a bachelors in biology is gonna be any help? And i defenitely know I will be going for my BSN somehow...but I dont know if UMBC offers nursing. Is it possible to major in anything else if I plan to go down the road to become a nurse practitioner? Thanks guys!
