Hey Purple.. I'm just trying to find any school that will accept me. Ideally I would like to be in a 2nd degree program as they are only 3 semesters typically and I have my first semester completed from UM. Just haven't come across any that seem to be in my favor.

I wonder if you can bypass the NET if you already have a prior bachelors degree... I see schools in all these other states want NET, TEAS, and other tests.

^^^ good point. I'm still learning how to use this forum. :)

Just need the CNA... I heard that you can take the exam for CNA after successfully completing your first semester of nursing school. Where would I have to go for this? Local hospital?

hey - thanks a million for your responses. I am going to give them a call when offices open on Monday and ask some questions!

I live in Florida. I am interested in a school in any state besides Florida. I'll move to where ever...

Need to get my CNA to get into my RN school. Anyone know where I can attain this in the fort lauderdale area? How much? how long?

I found one school that I REALLY like and was wondering if there were others like it. They only accept 30 students, so I have a feeling you get a very 1 on 1 teaching experience. The school has a rolling admission, you are admitted based on the number you are when turning in the application. Students are admitted based on completion of pre-reqs, not on who has the highest GPA or # of points, etc. They also have a low attrition rate and high pass rate on state board... the lady flat out said they do not weed students out, they want everyone who comes into the school to graduate and pass the state boards. Anywho, any of you know of schools that this sounds like? I would be looking for a good ADN, BSN, or ABSN program. I already have a bachelors in health care administration and would be looking to start either this spring or next fall. My total GPA is a 2.8... my bachelors GPA is a 3.1... and my pre-req GPA is a 3.3. I'm not a 4.0 student, hence my looking for a program that I can get in to.

I'd def. wait till I got the job and then discuss if they would be flexible with scheduling. Never want to come off as "this is going to be an issue..."

What is the name of the school so I can contact them this week? Thanks for your reply!

Thank you in advance for your help! I am very flexible, I can move to where ever... preferably central US or east coast. (NOT interested in FLORIDA) I am a 22 year old male student, just graduated this spring from Florida Atlantic University with a Bachelors in Health Care Administration. Current cum. GPA is between a 2.8 and 2.9 My GPA for my major is a 3.2 and about a 3.3 for my prereqs. I tried the nursing program at UM and wasn't very happy with it and decided to leave. I am open for ADN, BSN, or ABSN programs. I have completed all the basic prereqs... A&P1 w/ lab A&P2 w/ lab Chemistry English comp 1 and 2 Microbiology w/ lab general psych human development college algebra and stats I would like to start ASAP... preferably Spring of 2010. Does anyone know of any schools that are "easy" to get in to? Community college? State university? Private School? Prefer one with a good pass rate of the state board exam and a good retention rate of students. I have looked online and done tons of research. I have seen many schools that would require me to enroll spring and take a specific nursing math course or chemistry 2 just to apply and obviously do not wish to move my life to another state for the opportunity to apply.
