Congratulations on your choice to get your nursing degree. Your "friends" think you were to old! They will be shocked when they hear that I was 52 when I decided to finish my nursing degree. I have gotten my LVN and I am still working on getting my ADN. If you stop learning you stop living... Once again congratulations on your choice pat yourself on your back and keep moving forward. Hopefully I will graduate in 2016/2017 with my ADN God willing.

I need to get my intermediate Algebra course. My local colleges are full online can anyone suggest an accredited online college. PLEASE I want to keep this going. I only have a couple more classes to do. Thank you, Andrea,LVN future RN

Hi Student 43, I am a recent graduate of Xavier College, in Stockton. I as a matter of fact am the oldest person to graduate from the school. It is worth the money. Anyone can put lip stick on a pig to make it look good but it is still a pig... Don't judge a book by it's cover. The instructors are very caring and helpful. They don't coddle you they expect you to do the work and in the end when it is done and over with you will be thankful for the Tough love.-------------, does everything she can to make sure you are prepared for your career as a nurse and to take the NCLEX. It is a very intense 11 month course and you will question your sanity on why you are doing this to yourself. And then you realize you are about to graduate and you have put the blood, sweat and tears in to your career choice and yes there will be tears and for some of us more then other. But, like everyone kept saying if it was easy everyone would do it. If you want to become a nurse do the hard work. Xavier College, may not be beautifully decorated but you aren't there that much anyway and who care its not the building that matters anyway it's the people in it. And the people that are there are caring and working for your success. Sometimes harder then you do...... So if you haven't decided yet take a second look. I know you will be happy that you chose Xavier College. And good luck on your future choices.....
