Truman College Nursing Students starting Fall 2011!!
I have a Bachelors degree and have completed all the nursing prereqs within my major at the University. Since I did not take the prereqs at a community college will they also look at my cumulative GPA or just my GPA for the required prereqs? My cumulative is 3.162 and my GPA for the prereqs is along the lines of 2.5-.275. So what do you think? Can they also take the higher grade for a certain prereq. For example English 101 I got a C because my teacher was a prick he gave everyone C's but I'm an excellent writer. In my Research Writing course which is higher level 102 I received an A in. So would they be able to take this A instead of the C? I checked their transfer guide for biology and Trumans is equivalent to my BIO 198 which I got a C in but I recieved a B in BIO 197 which at their institution is higher level than my BIO 198. Will they take the B?

Anyone get into Truman's Nursing program for Fall 09?? Post here!!
What is the required minimum GPA for acceptance into the nursing program? Do they solely look at the GPA for the prereqs? I have a Bachelor's so will they look at my cumulative GPA and GPA for their required prereqs?

LVN to RN bridge program. Has anyone here done it?
Does taking the RN bridge/transition course to enter the 3rd semester or 2nd yr of nursing school difficult to pass if you're an LPN already with working expierence? Once you pass and get into the final yr of nursing is it easier since you have working experience?

LPN to RN program online??
Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) may advance place into Nursing 210 or Nursing 211 (third semester courses) after meeting all prerequisites and passing Nursing 140 (RN Transition/Bridge course). This is for Trumans RN program in chicago. Has anyone done this whether at Truman/Daley etc? What was it like?

Would It Be Better To Be A Lpn First, Then Go For Rn?
is it true that if you do your lpn then you can be placed into the second year of nursing school and skip the first year? I think you'd have to take an exam and then you would be placed but if the lpn courses are very similar to nursing school's first year then passing the bridge exam would be doable and you can enroll into the second year (3rd semester) of nursing school correct? Anyone done this or experienced this? Let me know!!!

Should I get my RN or BSN? What if I already have a Bachelor's degree?
Here is my dilemma... I initially began my freshmen year of undergrad as a Biology major and actually took the majority of the nursing prereqs (English, Math, Chemistry, Biology, Microbiology) already at my University. However, the only prereqs that I did not take since I switched to Psychology major my junior year are Anatomy I & II and Physiology. Since I already have University credits for the majority of the nursing prereqs and want to apply to Truman's RN nursing program in Chicago, do I still need to get an ADN if all I need to complete are these final 2 prereqs? Can I apply to the RN nursing program with just a BA in Psych and not an ADN? I figured I could because some go to nursing school with an ADN and no Bachelor's. I'm now a senior and will graduate in May 2013; I will be taking the Anatomy and Physio. in the summer 2013 (after graduating) at Truman/Daley community college. I'm also unsure how community colleges work they state that you have to complete the nursing prereqs there but I already have University credit for most of them. So will they award me an ADN regardless if I take the final 2 pre-reqs there? Also, will I make a more competitive applicant for nursing school if I completed a Bachelor's degree and most of the nursing prereqs at the University instead of community college (except for Anatomy and Physio)? Thinking ahead...Once I complete the RN program I was thinking of working for 1 yr or so while saving up for my MSN. I figured since I already have a Bachelor's I can bypass the BSN and go straight to an MSN program with my RN degree and Bachelor's in Pysch., is this possible? Is this a good idea? I would not be able to afford a BSN since it will take 4 yrs and MSN is 2 yrs or shorter so I figured it would be more cost-effective to work during and after graduating nursing school and save up for the 2yrs of MSN vs. 4yrs of BSN. Idk. Eventually I'd like to become a Nurse Practitioner but one thing at a time. HAS ANYONE BEEN IN A SIMILAR SITUATION? PLEASE HELP! WHATEVER ADVICE YOU HAVE WOULD BE GREAT, THANKS. :)
