Hi there, I am looking into volunteering in the COPE Clinical Care Extender program in Southern California. If you could help answer a few questions, that would be great! 1. How hard is it to get into volunteering for this opportunity? (I do not have...

Hi! Thanks all for the posts! I had one question: could you do a double-shift and fulfill the 1 year requirement in 6 months? Just curious!

They are accredited. Whenever you have a doubt, check this website: Board of Registered Nursing - RN Programs

Here's a link for LVN to RN program: LVN to RN - LVN to BSN - Azusa Pacific University

Just curious if anyone was accepted into a nursing program (which one too) without volunteer experience?

Thanks so much for the encouragement and the posts! I'm more encouraged now that I have a chance to get into a program. ^_^

Thanks for the response!!! =) If I could give super kudos, I would! =) I just feel sometimes that everyone I meet who wants to be a nurse has been in the medical field or has had exposure of several years. So this gives me hope.

Hi there! I have a Bachelors degree and am hoping to enroll in an MEPN. However, it looks like from all the posts that it's REALLY competitive. I don't have all the nursing pre-requisites yet so it'll take me a while to get there. However, I was wond...

Hello Renee! I had a question about the traditional BSN program. Is there a waitlist for that? I'm also interested in the one at APU in Azusa. Thanks!

Hello there! I have a couple of pre-requisites (one Science pre-requisite and one non-Science, Nutrition, pre-requisite) where I had to withdraw from the class. I retook the classes and got As on both of them. Do I have a shot at getting in nursing s...

Hi! The program that lets you wait 2 years before getting the MSN is at Azusa Pacific University in West Covina, California. Here's the link to that EENAP program (it's at the bottom of the page): http://www.apu.edu/nursing/graduate/select/ Actually,...

Hi ac45289! You didn't sound harsh at all! =) I appreciate your input. Short story...when I was sitting in Anatomy class to fulfill a pre-req for Nursing school, I sat by a person who would draw comic book characters on his notebook during lecture (a...

Thank you both Ab0903 and NurseCubanitaRN! I'm now seriously thinking about CNA before going into an ABSN or ELMSN program. Thank you so much! :)

Hi Dixielou, Congratulations! =) I am seriously thinking about going into the EENAP or the SCAN program as well. There's a really good chart that compares the two programs: http://www.apu.edu/nursing/graduate/select/ I would think that doing EENAP wo...

Hi kurlaub, D= I'm so sorry about your denial letter. =( Did they even say why? Did you have a lot of volunteer experience? (That's my main downfall.) As for other SD programs, I only know of the SDSU accelerated BSN program as well as National Unive...

The problem with PCC in taking pre-requisites is that it is extremely hard to get in those classes especially if you are a new student. You are given a priority code for registering and if you haven't been a regular student at the school, then you re...

Hi there, I'm seriously considering taking the ABSN program associate with the Glendale Adventist hospital. I'm busy taking my prereqs at Santa Monica College. My goal is to eventually go into a MSN program so that I can be a nursing practitioner. BT...

Hi smallykitty00! I was wondering how hard it is to get into the SCAN program or EENAP? I don't have any volunteer experience yet and I wonder if that's going to be my downfall. =( Also, if I decide not to do the MSN at APU, is that ok? Can I just st...

Hi reeki, That was an awesome answer to my question! Thank you!!!
