I think so.

Can you guys share your stats?

Hello, I am applying to Front Range Community College this Fall for a Spring semester start. Does anyone know what the daily schedule is like and is it possible to work?

Thank you!

Hello! I have all my prerequisites finished and I am looking for a hybrid type program. I thought I could initially start with an LPN and then do my ADN. I have a bachelors degree and just finished my CNA online. I would like to attend an accelerated type program but I simply can't afford it! If anyone has any information I would appreciate it. Peace, Love, Light.

thank you!

Here is the list. Master list of Direct Entry Nursing Programs: - College Confidential. I contact several of these schools and found it not to be accurate. Thank you so much for your reply.

I hate to bust in on a thread but no one is replying to the one I posted so I am hoping to get some answers here, please. I can't find any information." I am looking for NP programs that are set up the way that Vanderbilt's pre-speciality program. I have a BS in another discipline and I am working on a masters in public health but I have no nursing degree (LPN, RN, BSN). Also, I do not think I can get funding for another undergraduate degree? The only program that I have found so far is Vanderbilt's, but I have heard Vandy is so expensive and I am not sure my GPA is high enough. I have heard you need close to a 4.0? Any information would be greatly appreciated. I have found some list of "direct entry" programs but I have researched them and they are not accurate."

You are very kind!

Thank you for answering this is helpful!

I am wondering the same thing. Who got in?

Hey guys would you mind sharing what your stats are? I am thinking of applying next year?

I think it is awesome! I am an older student too! You Go!!

Hi, I am located in Colorado and will apply to two accelerated nursing programs here. In order to have options I have been searching for other programs that might fit my needs. Having grown up in TN, i started looking at programs there. Vanderbilt's Pre-Specialty program seemed to be a good fit. I don't want to be away from Colorado, but if I have to TN would be my obvious choice. The fact I could finish the RN part of the program in one year and then be free to do the graduate years at other locations seemed practical for me. I Also like the idea of apply to a program one time instead of having to apply for the RN portion and the reapply for the MS portion. Thank you so much for answering.

Hello, Does anyone know of other programs that are similar and give the same flexibility as Vanderbilt Pre-Specialty? The way I understand this is that the student only needs to be on campus the first year. I do not have any nursing experience or degree in nursing. I have a BS in geology. However, I am in the process of completing my prerequisites.

Hi, Colorado Hopeful! I am so excited that you are willing to share information and experiences! I have more questions for you at a later date!

I have applied to the school but I do not think I will have all my prerequisites finished to apply for the upcoming nursing program. I am curious to be apart of this thread so I can have some insight for the future! Good Luck and keep us posted!! I would love for you to share stats and experience if you feel comfortable.

I am very happy I found you guys! I am getting ready to apply for this program. I would love any information that I could get including stats, housing, intensity, quality, etc!!!!

Hi! I am interested stats from people who were accepted! Also, wondering if there are similar programs like this at other universities?

I did. Thank you. Apparently not much out there on this program.

Yes the stats do seem higher than medical school? Is this really the case?

Thank you for sharing.

35 and a full time job! Anatomy and Stats left. I am so glad you guys started this group!

Kar, Is it a direct entry program? May I ask what your overall GPA is?
