It is entirely up to you, of course, but I'd think a BSN would be much for your career in the long term, and I AM WILLING TO BET that you would have more credibility by graduating from the nursing...
It *could* be better at the Leestown campus, but not likely. I've seen enough in my one semester at the Leestown campus (in another program) to know that the school is not organized, and the teachers...
Michigan, you say you love your job, yet you seem so bitter. So intent on painting such a gloomy picture of the nursing field. What does that accomplish? One thing that I know that it would...
Sarah, the best way to find out just how good a program is to call around to places that hire nurses. Give them a fake name and tell them you are thinking of entering a nursing program and you'd...
Is it really any worse than it was generations ago, though? There is more technology today, for sure, more documentation that must be completed, but that just creates a situation in which more must...
That *would* be a problem for me. I have never been one to be able to 'study' when everyone else in the group is chatting up what they're doing on the weekend or some other nonsense. Maybe it's...
Okay.........I made it 3 pages into the thread before I formed the assumption that no one else is seeing that maybe the "nursing shortage" is a doing of schools and not hospitals. The only rationale...

Kina, what college do you attend? And is it the nursing program that requires such a high GPA to get in, or just the college in general? Is is Centre, by the way? Hugs,
My wife works at a facility in northern Kentucky, and some of her co-workers attend Gateway KCTCS. I was thinking of checking out the program. How does it compare to the program that EKU has?...
I'm a student at BCTCS, just aren't taking any classes this Fall 2008 semester. I took an HVAC and Circuits I/II classes last Spring 2008 semester, and decided electricity wasn't for me (especially...
I never thought an Internet thread forum could be so beautiful. I am not even in the nursing program at BCTCS, yet, nor have I even applied for it. At this point, I don't even have my CNA license,...
If you are planning on working in long-term care, being a CNA *would* be a wise decision! My wife is an LPN with 20-something years of experience in long term care, and she will tell you that the...
I hope no one minds a rookie reviving a six month old thread. At the moment I am investigating WHERE to get my CNA license (I live just north of Georgetown, KY). It is so expensive. Yes, BCTCS...
