Great! Thank you

I'm attending a nursing school info session tomorrow. My question is... What do I bring with me and how should I dress. It's going to be about 85 degrees outside but I'm sure inside will be okay. Do I just bring a notebook and pen and dress business casual? I don't want to look silly. Thanks in advance!

I have an appointment on Wednesday to speak to someone. Problem is, I don't fully trust them to give me accurate info 100% of the time. I want to make sure I have all my bases covered and I am prepared to ask them questions if I need to. Thanks!! :)

That's helpful to know. Do you know if those science courses that are required for your BSN will need to be less than 5 years old when you enter that program?

I am currently attending community college to finish up some prerequisites and retake some of my science courses that are older than 5 years old; I should be receiving my Associates Degree by the Spring 2016. My original plan was to transfer to another local school for the diagnostic imaging or dental hygiene programs but now I'm really leaning towards nursing (something I always wanted to do). My school nursing admission is based on application date. As of right now I won't get in until 2017. Seems like a long way but it works out for me and my family situation with my kids. My question is... I'd really like to get my BSN but I'm not quite sure how to go about doing that from this point. Do I just continue to take classes at my community college till I officially start the ADN program they offer then later do a bridge program? I don't want to waste any time since I'm already 39 years old and getting into the game kinda late. I want to keep my costs down as much as possible but I also want to give myself the best possible start as far landing a decent job when I am done with the program. I feel very lost!!!
