    lakmom12 replied to NiftyGirl2014's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    lakmom12 replied to Navykids's topic in Government, Military

    Navykids, that's what I've spent the last few years doing. Prereqs were the easy part and having them paid for made life way better. It does take a little longer going this route due to restrictions...
