I need to take an intro to pharmacology course, and since none of the colleges I live around will be offering it this spring, I need to take it online. Does anyone know anything about Minot State University's online courses, or IPFW's (Indiana Purdue Fort Wayne)?? The course through Minot State is HMS 215, and the one through IPFW is PCTX 201D - Intro to Pharmacology. Thanks!

The West Lafayette campus. I'm in the process of applying, I was just curious if anyone has any additional info about it. Thanks!

Does anyone know anything about Purdue University's accelerated BSN program? I graduated from Purdue in 2003 with a BS in food science, but want to go back to school and become a nurse. I've actually been accepted into Bellarmine University's accelerated program (Bellarmine is located in Louisville, KY), but since I already have a bachelor's from Purdue, I thought I might have a decent chance at getting into their program. I know it's competitive, as it seems to be everywhere, but I really enjoyed going to school at Purdue the first time, and it would also save me a lot of money, as Bellarmine is a private school ($$$$$$). Purdue didn't have the accelerated program while I was there, so I was curious if anyone has any feedback. Thanks!

I too was accepted into Bellarmine University's accelerated BSN program for 2006, and am very grateful because that's the only school that accepted me! You're right, it is expensive, but I figure I can do it for one year. If it were a traditional four year BSN program, I could not afford it and would look elsewhere. As far as how reputable the nursing program is at Bellarmine, I have two aunts who live in the Louisville area, and both say that Bellarmine graduates seem to have somewhat of a leg up, at least in the Louisville area. They also say that they've heard good things about their nursing school, so you can take that for what it's worth. I tried to get into IUPUI's accelerated nursing program as well as Rush University (in Chicago) and didn't get into either one, and I still haven't figured out why and probably never will! My GPA for my undergrad was a 3.34 and my GPA for prerequisites for nursing is well above that. I'm just ready to start the program and finish, as I am 24 years old and feel like I'm wasting valuable time. Good luck to you wherever you end up!
