    I guess there are always issues. I have not had any financial aid ones. All I can say is 5 months and I'm done! I'm so glad I did not

    Try Galen if you are near the Tampa Bay Area. They have an online bridge program. You have to be in class for lab and exams, the rest is online. The clinicals are at different sites around Tampa

    Anyone know of any Associates programs here that don't require pre-requisites

    shamrokks replied to nursefan's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I did the same thing. I transferred from SPC to Galen. I will be done by the time I could of applied at SPC. The slightly higher cost will be made up in salary during the time difference. I have...

    Thanks for the info on SPC's rn- bsn program. I was really hoping it was easier to get into. I don't even want to think of going back to school again at this point, lol. I definitely need a

    The whole program. My tuition was about $14,000. I received almost $7000 in grant money and the other $7000 was loans. I transferred in my literature, A&P I&II...I think that was it. I do not...
