DazedB: I just graduated from QCC nursing. I have to say, it is a pretty good school for nursing with cheap tuition. We can apply NCLEX after graduation, and our passing rate is very high too. You can always get a BSN after A.A.S in nursing. Many four-year schools have RN passway, for associate degree RNs. You need to apply to pre-nursing now. You need to take several prerequisite classes such as A&P before apply to nursing major, that takes about one to two semester. Then you can contact nursing department. They will look at your GPA on those classes, you need good GPAs, above 3.7. I hope these information can help you make a decision. Good luck on everything!
