I am a student at CSUS that was planning on going into physical therapy but decided to go for nursing/PA instead. I will graduate in Fall 2010 with an Exercise Science Degree, concentration in Therap. Exercise and Rehab. Since I will have a BS degree before going into a nursing program are there specific programs I should look for? The schools are confusing whether a masters program means you are already a nurse or if you have a degree and looking for nursing. I would prefer going into a program that allows me to become a practitioner if such a thing exists. What programs should I be looking for in the Sacramento (or CA) area? If it helps I have about a 3.8 gpa right now.
