  2. Where to study?

    ryanalice replied to ruzhyo's topic in General Students

    ryanalice replied to Naturally Brilliant's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes you can apply for the traditional BSN program at many schools. They should accept a lot of the core curriculum stuff you did with your first degree, so it won't take you the full 4 years but it...
