Oh no I appreciate it! I talked to a recruiter for the program and she basically told me the same thing. My girls are my number one priority. I've decided at this point to go the traditional route at either UK or EKU. It will take me a long time but I still get to be a mommy so that is good. I appreciate your comment!

I want to apply to a ABSN program however I don't have a lot of prereqs completed so it may be slim pickings. Ideally I'd like to get into EKU's program but doubtful that will happen without completing more of the prereqs. I liked the sound of Bellarmine's program since it's only a year. However, I have 2 little girls (2 and 5) and I have heard it is very intense plus I live in Lexington so it would be a good hour drive. Is it crazy to even consider? I know it's possible but my girls are the most important thing so if it meant not seeing them at all during the week due to the hour drive back and forth then it's out of the question. I don't know what a typical day looks like for the ABSN students there. As far as EKU's 2nd degree option, I will still have to take Anatomy, Phys, Nutrition and Microbiology when I apply to the program. I can complete these before August but I read they give you points based on what you have already completed. My accum college GPA is a 3.4 and I have a bachelor's and master's degree. Do I even have a shot? I just need some opinions. Thanks!

Thanks! I also saw where you said you did your prereqs at BCTC. Did you take the Anatomy and Phys BIO 137 class there or are there 2 separate classes I don't know about. I wasn't sure if EKU would accept the Anatomy and Phys class instead of taking them separately?

AmandaKash, Do you know how much the preq. are vs gpa and references. I won't have completed any of the science preq by the time I apply but had a 3.8 gpa in grad school. Do I have a shot? I will be enrolled in 2 this spring and could take the other 2 this summer but do you think this is really bad?
