That's certainly something to think about, thank you! My hurdle with CU is that some of my required pre-requisites have expired because they're too old (Stats, ENG 122, PSY 100, SOC 100). So... CU is at the bottom of my list, simply because I woul...

Ms.Dre22, How is the CCA "pathways" program structured? Do you have to take ALL of your pre-requisite classes at CCA and then you're guaranteed (more or less) entry to UCD (Granted you met all of the GPA requirements and took the needed classes fo...

Oh Snarf, I am so sorry!! So, what is causing all of this? Years ago, when I embarked on this journey, all I heard about was the "nursing shortage". I thought for sure that there would be many options for schools & programs, and job options u...

Wow-- you guys are amazing. You're so helpful and knowledgable. THANK YOU! The ability to do the upper division & Ethics class(es) after being accepted to the program makes a big difference. I don't feel like I've hit three completely dead en...

Thank you, Sand Dollar. Let me clarify about my GPA. I have a 4.0 for my science pre-requisite GPA. In the last 3 years, I only got one B, which was in Algebra (which Regis doesn't need me to have). However, if you look at my GPA from back in 200...

Summit--- Thank you! This is very helpful information. I didn't realize that I could take some of those classes after being admitted into the program. That's good to hear! Just to clarify, does that mean that I can get accepted into the Nursing p...

Wow- I wonder if the "Pathway to BSN" program that CCD is building, has something to do with the traditional BSN program that Metro is rumored to be creating. This scenario would be the answer to my prayers. I'm now looking into BSN programs (not...

Does anyone know of any other BSN programs IN Denver, aside from Regis, CU and DSN? The one that Metro has is a bridge from ADN to BSN. I don't want to move!

I'm in the same boat. I applied. Was told that they were postponing the decision deadline for three weeks, and then received that same letter on Friday. I'm so upset. The BSN programs in Denver don't fit my situation. My plan was to apply to CC...

So I was just looking at their website for the school of nursing at Platt College. They have a BSN Program and there are basically little to no requirements to get in. (I mean, you have to pass some tests and ultimately, the decision is up to the b...

I'm getting ready to apply to Community College of Denver Nursing Program (ADN). In the interim, I'm thinking about taking BIO 216 (Pathophysiology). They offer it online and I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with this. I heard throug...

It looks like I'm going to have .... Is anyone familiar with her?

Thanks so much! Are you taking this through Community College of Denver? I'm not sure what CCC online is. Obviously, class formats will be a little different depending on which school you're taking the class through.

My dream/goal is to be a nurse. It would be a great accomplishment for me if I could get a Bachelors in Nursing. However--- My plan of attending Denver School of Nursing is somewhat shot--- just due to financing. You're not really supposed to wor...

I'm satisfying my pre-requisites right now, so I can apply to nursning school. I have an unrelated Associates Degree- and I am aiming to get a Bachelors (in Nursing). I currently have a full time day job-- so I'm accustom to the work/school grind. QU...

Thanks for the advice! I do not have a previous bachelors. I have an Associates Degree (arts & sciences) from a community college (Front Range) that I received about 8 years ago. I remember looking into Regis, and realizing (as was a similar cas...

I have excluded UCD (University of Colorado at Denver) from my options, because they have strict limitations on how old your pre-requisites can be. That means that I would have to re-take about 8 classes that I took when I got my Associates of Arts...

You are doing something amazing--- and don't lose sight of the end product. This is the moment when life is testing you to say- "Can you handle this?" Now--- if you ask me- 4 summer classes is WAY too much. I have a feeling, though, that you're kind ...

I think that people say the Denver School of Nursing route is about $60K--- because you are not encouraged to work during that time, and so I would have to take out extra money to cover my cost of living...cause I don't have a dime saved right now. ...

I'm working full time in the corporate world, while trying to satisfy my pre-requisites so I can apply to Nursing School. I'm feeling completely overwhelmed. It seems like every time I turn around- I need to take MORE classes. Because I can only go ...

You guys are AMAZING!!!! Thank you for your support and I will continue to return to this post for encouragement when I need. I guess I didn't realize how HARD Nursing is-- and I never took into account how little credit Nurses get for the amount of...
