Hello! I am planning on applying to 3 central Ohio BSN programs for 2009. They are all very competitive, so I am trying all three in hopes that I get into at least one!! They are: -Mount Carmel -OSU -Otterbein I would like to hear from those of you who have attended these schools or have heard a lot about them. Which is the best? What are the pros and cons? Any comments about these programs are welcomed! :)

Congrats on your decision to become a nurse! Mount Carmel hosts an open house where you can learn a great deal about their programs. You can also meet a college representative who can help answer your specific questions regarding the application deadline. (But I fear you are probably way too late and will have to wait until 2009.) Go to their website to find dates and times of their open houses. Good luck!

If nursing is really what you want to do then you should go for it! I would recommend making an appointment with a counselor at the school or schools you want to apply for. They could offer you some great advice and give you a place to start! Best of luck!

Hello! I am currently taking my pre-reqs at a local community college. I would like to obtain my BSN. There are 3 schools that I will be applying for to start nursing school in fall of '09. All three schools are very competitive, there are no waiting lists, either you are in or you aren't. IF (and that is a big IF) I am accepted at multiple schools, then I want to be sure I pick the best one. So I would like to look to the advice of you folks... I will be making appointments to speak with counselors at each college... What sort of questions should I ask? What important things about the school should I be looking for? The schools I am applying to are: Ohio State University, Mount Carmel College of Nursing, and Otterbein College (all in Central Ohio). If any of you have attended these colleges I would also like to hear from you. I look forward to your input! :)
