You might want to consider going back through the community college route. This might sound a little crazy but it could save you a lot of money. You can go 2 years to community college (which costs literally 10% of MENP program) and then sit for the NCLEX. With your RN you can start working and get tuition reimbursement to go to a BSN or MSN program. If money is super tight, this is the route I would suggest. Before you turn up your nose at the community colleges, realize that some of them provide excellent instruction and have pass rates (on NCLEX) similar to DePaul or UIC.

Any one hae any used AACN CSC review material they want to sell? I would like to take the test but the fee for the test itself is steep and to add much more for the review material (that I will only be using for a few weeks) is steep -- appreciate any leads. - Thanks

Does any one have a used AACN CSC review material they might want to sell. I would like to take the test but the fee is already expensive and to spend $150+ on material you will only use for a few weeks seems too steep -- any leads appreciated. Thanks, Laura

What is the program in Westmont -- I also would really like to know. Thanks, Laura

I applied and interviewed for UIC direct entry MSN program (already have BSN). I know entry into the GEP program is very hard -- but I am unsure of how hard it is to get into the MSN program itself? I tried to look up stats (even based on past years) but couldn't find any -- does anyone know? Also does anyone know how hard entry into UIC graduate school is compared to Rush Univeristy? - Thanks
