Before I explain what's going on, I have checked into every community college in the area. I live in PA and have always wanted to be a nurse. There are no colleges around me that have nursing. I would rather live in the NY or even NJ area anyway thou...

Can anyone explain Hunter's pre-req's and what else you need to get accepted into the program? Is it a double acceptance as in you must be accepted into CUNY and then the program itself?
I'm looking for an ADN program in New York. Does anyone know the requirements to get into City Tech's ADN program? It says you have to have pre-req's for the introductory semester and that you need to take the NLN during your introductory semester. I...

Does anyone know if there are any housing locations in Manhattan other than Educational Housing Services? They want at least $18,000 per year and that's ridiculous. I cannot find any other housing. Any suggestions?

do you know where it states what biology course you need? I have Intro to Physiology (a BIOL course at Penn State) and I'm also taking A&P I, Chem I, and Microbiology.
"Fast paced multiple physician practice seeking fulltime Medical Assistant/LPN" MEDICAL ASSISTANT/LPN?? I emailed them regarding their job posting and they said "its the same thing and they get paid the same". What are your thoughts?

Yeah. They are just two very different things. They said they will pay $12 an hour. I'm not sure what salaries are for LPN's but it should be more than that. They worked hard to get where they are. They should be paid according to their skills.
I do not mean to put medical assistants down by any means. It's just not the same thing. Medical assistant programs is not nursing school. They are not licensed to be nurses.
I applied to Northampton Community College for the Fall 2010 semester but did not get accepted because I was missing a few classes. On their website it says that you do not need any prerequisites other than HS courses but since there are a lot of app...
