Because of costs I had to change my plans as well. Instead of doing a traditional BSN, I'm going for a 12 month LPN, theirs then a local LPN to RN bridge at the community college which will take 12 months (plus two semesters of prereqs I can take whi...
I start classes next week. I'm taking my final prereqs and will finish in the end of July. I had a possibility to start the nursing program in fall if space was available. Well, now I get this letter in the mail from the college I previously attende...
What happened from what I understand so far was when enrolled, they enrolled me for two semesters and did my financial aid together in a "package". Since I dropped the second semester to persue nursing, they took all of my financial aid away But my t...

I have about 20-25 minute drive depending on traffic, add on 10 minutes to find the street only parking and I'll be leaving about 35 mins early for classes

I'm in the same boat. I will be starting in Jan 2013 with nursing classes. My school advised me not to work but I will be working 20 hrs and if I'm still at my job (banking) I will also volunteer at a hospital for my resume.
Though I am still a nursing student, not a nurse yet, I'm with the previous poster. My parents are still together, they weren't abusive and they didn't do drugs. Also, I am very close with my parents and all of my siblings.
I was talking to my advisor at school today and I have two options for fall, I can take A&P II, microbiology, psychology and literature OR A&P II, psychology and start my nursing classes. The first option will help me cut down on general clas...

I've only applied to one school. I have all the prerequisites done except for A&P 1. I'm taking that this summer and hopefully I'll get into the nursing program for fall or spring.
