Rose state is great. I just finished all of my pre reqs and applied for the spring semester nursing program. I do not have kids so that is an obstacle that I did not have to over come. My advice would be to take some easy pre reqs like med term, intro to psych, and maybe a history or government. If you have any more questions let me know.
They had told me that they would know the minimum amount points to get in by the first of November, and that the letters would go out around thanksgiving.
I applied for the beginning track classroom option. I have 131 points. I talked to the program coordinator and she said the last two semesters had a cut off of 120 points and that she did not think it would raise that much. Hopefully for both of us that is true. Good luck!
