  1. Florida State University College of Nursing

    sherilyn321 replied to courtsnickity's topic in Florida Nursing

    Remember that FSU has an ABSN. You can complete a degree (one that you enjoy more than biology) and apply to the advanced program. It only adds one more year, and you're ahead a year so it works...

    sherilyn321 replied to cdgpatterson's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    sherilyn321 replied to Jessfulce's topic in LPN, LVN Corner
