I have a B.A. in Biology but have worked as a writer (journalist, grantwriter and creative writer) for many years. Now I'm heading back to school! I'm nervous and excited to finally fulfill my calling and become a nurse!

Hi ElliotPB, I'm a 2nd Bacc. I was wondering the same thing so I emailed T__ (not supposed to use names here) in the Nursing Dept. She emailed back saying that she would get back to me within 3 days....
