Hi! First of all, thank you for sharing what your experience was like in this program! I am definitely leaning toward this now! I was wondering if I could ask you more specific questions about LSU and LSUHSC in general and what you went through - if you wouldn't mind, of course.

As a senior in high school, the time has come to look into colleges and future careers. I have decided to pursue the highly rewarding field that is nursing. Ultimately, I want to be a CRNA. That is incredibly far down the road for me right now, but it's never too early to plan! I have really been considering going to LSU for their pre-nursing program that would introduce me to the LSU SON. I've heard the program is incredibly hard but great to prepare you for whatever you're going into. If I go with it then I would spend a year at LSU in baton rouge finishing prereqs and then transferring to LSUHSC in New Orleans for my bsn. I could just get my bsn at any other college and later apply to LSUHSC to be a CRNA after I get ICU experience. I'm wondering if LSU pre nursing program is the way to go and if anyone here has done/ is in it right now. The only reason why I'm hesitant at doing this is because I don't really like the idea of going to school for only one year and having to go to another school and start over the next year in a different city. So can someone tell me if this program is worth it or not? I would really appreciate it!
