Thank you for this information!!! God luck with the start of the program!!

Well said!!

As of now I am interested in L&D or pediatric nursing. I wont start my nursing program until spring 2015 (completing my pre-req courses over the next year) so something else may peak my interest by the time I'm done. So who knows where the wind may blow.....good luck to you all!!

I too am a mother of two and working full time and have decided to make a complete career change to nursing. I am completing all of my pre-req courses throughout the next year. Those include A&P I& II and microbiology. I also need sociology and developmental psychology but i will be completing the CLEP for those credits. I am applying for the 2015 evening weekend program at Mercy School of Nursing here in charlotte! Good luck to everyone!!

I would also like to know how the scheduling of classes and clinicals are for the evening weekend program. I plan to apply for the Spring 2015 evening weekend program as I will spend the next year completing all of my pre-requisite courses. Good luck to you!!

Thanks in advance!!

Hi peeps, I've recently made up my mind to do a 360 career change. I've decided to go back to school for nursing. The more I think about it the more excite I get. I'm planning to apply to Mercy School of Nursing evening/weekend program for Spring 2015. I know you all are probably thinking that's far away but I have to get all of my prerequisite classes before then. I will be taking a continuing education course called Exploring Medical Language this August to start off but mainly to wait until I am considered an in state student at the community college here in Charlotte since I just moved back to North Carolina from Arkansas a little over 10 months ago. I will then complete A&P I&II and microbiology at the community college and complete the CLEP for Sociology and Developmental Psychology. I will also be taking the TEAS test in January. I have a non-nursing degree and graduated with a 3.6. I said all that to ask this....any other prospective applicants for Spring 2015 for Mercy School of Nursing that will also be taking these prerequisites throughout the next year to fulfill the admissions requirements. Also, any comments or suggestions from current Mercy School of Nursing students or applicants are highly encouraged as I am new to this world. :-)
