Accreditation question...
I possibly want to attend a nursing program that'll give me an AAS degree and they're accredited by NLNCA. I definitely want to pursue my BSN right after, but that school is accredited by CCNE. Will the CCNE accredited school accept the AAS degree even though it's accredited by a NLNCA? Long story shot i'm asking can you transfer between the two? or do you have to stay under one? Side note: After receiving my BSN, eventually I want to go on to a masters or higher... Thanks in advance!

Anyone else...
Lol. There's nothing wrong with that, sometimes the greatest decisions you'll ever make in life will come to you out of the blue. I always knew I wanted to work in medicine, just never could figure out what. I went from wanting to be a Vet, to a Doctor, to a Dental Asst. I gave up medicine all together and was gearing up to pursue a career as a hair stylist. It wasn't until earlier this year when my BF suggested becoming a nurse, that I gained an interest in it. IDK why, it just never crossed my mind before. Anyways, ever since then I've been researching like crazy and really asking myself am I sure I want to dive head first into this, and I can honestly say that I am. I really think I've found my calling. And this revelation never would've came to me if my BF didn't randomly suggest it.

So confused on how to get into a nursing program
Thanks so much you guys for taking the time out to help a lost soul. I will definitely go back and speak to someone at my old school to see what steps I can take from there. Hopefully by Jan I can start taking general ed courses and get this ball rolling. It's not so much that I don't have a good grasp of math, it's just not something I can do effortlessly like others. English and writing has always been my strongest subjects. But I honestly blame my struggles in math on my sheer laziness during my time in school. when I actually gave a damn and paid attention, I would get 80's and above. While the other times I was being a goof ball and getting kicked out of (mainly math) class. BTW are there any math books or anything that I should start reading that'll help sharpen this rusty brain while I have this time off??

So confused on how to get into a nursing program
Hi, I'm new here so i'm sorry if this was asked before. I'm interested in pursing a BSN degree but don't know where to start. A little about my background: In 2010 I was attending a Cuny, taking courses in liberal arts. Well math isn't my strong point, so when I took the placement exam I failed the math portion and had to take remedial math. I passed the 1st semester, but in the 2nd semester I failed math 010 and other courses (I missed A LOT of classes due to morning sickness). I only completed that one year of college. My question is...whats next? I'm reading about pre-reqs and a whole lot of other things that I have to do before I apply. As u guys already know I can't take science courses unless i'm up to date in math. So would I have to go back to my school and at least get the basics out of the way, then transfer into a nursing program? Or can I apply as if Im a freshman again? lol Thanks In advance!
