Thats really cool that you can take your nursing classes and micro together. I have to wait until December when I complete the class before I can even apply to the program. Kudos!

I am finishing up my summer chem class and the I begin my last pre-req. . . the dreaded micro! I'm really excited to start but I suppose I should be nervous too =)

I am finishing up my summer semester chem and then it's my last class. . .the dreaded micro on august 18. I'm really excited to start again, though I probably shouldn't be.

Hi all of you out there! I currently attend a local community college where I am enrolled in my last pre-req for the nursing program at my school. I live in an area where there is a prestigious health care university fifteen minutes away. When I am asked by my co-workers (I work in a hospital's radiology dept.) what nursing program I intend on applying to I tell them the community college I currently attend or 3 other prospective J.C schools. Each time I get, " Oh, so you're going to go to a community college? Loma Linda University has a nursing program." I obviously know Loma Linda University has a nursing program but I cannot justify spending upwards of $30,000 a year for an ASN. I don't want the student loans for the rest of my life and when I explain this they just give me a blank look like I am a leper. I would just like to know if I'm going to be missing an opportunity of some unforeseen sort if I just stick with the Community college route and get my BSN after I pass my boards or does it even make a difference? I really appreciate all your help! S.D
