Hi all, my name is Leah. I am new here and need some advice. First, here is a little background. First and foremost I am 27 years old (will be 28 in Aug) and I would just be starting on my college career. I have always wanted to be a nurse and actually that was my plan after high school (graduated 1999) but I fell in love, got married, and had a baby daughter instead. Now since then I have also had a son and I am pregnant with our 3rd and last (due in Aug). I am still very much in love and very much enjoy being a mommy, but my life is also missing the ME part and honestly I still feel the nurse inside of me. I have made the decision to go to school and I plan to be an RN. I know that I am behind the game as far as when I am getting started, but I do finally feel like it is my time. I will hopefully be starting in the fall semester taking some online course (since I'll have just had a baby) and then really getting started in January. So, that was my background. Here is my question. We have a local community college that has an RN program. I was wondering what is the differences between a university RN program and a college RN program and ultimately what is better and why? I will probably take at least the Fall semester at the local college simply because, like I said, I will have just had a baby (via c-section for that matter) but after that....We have several universities near by (since I live in between Beaumont and Houston Texas) and assuming I get accepted, I kinda have my pick of good schools as far as my location is concerned. Anyway, any information that anyone may have would be great. Experiences, anyone who maybe started school later in life with a family at home? Thanks all.
