Hello, I recently signed up to this site hoping to receive advice from nurses/nursing students. I am currently an upcoming Sophomore student at UC San Diego. I entered UCSD with an interest in engineering but throughout my freshmen year, I decided that engineering is not my route. So instead, I considered taking the biology route. Now I have an interest in nursing, but UCSD does not offer a BSN or a nursing program. I've read that some Human Bio BS undergraduate Alumni from UCSD have applied to other schools to achieve general masters in nursing or a family nurse practitioner program for 2-3 years. I was wondering since I am only a 2nd year undergraduate, should I continue my 4 years here at UCSD to obtain my Human Bio BS, then apply to another school that offers a nursing program or should I transfer into a nursing program right after my 2nd year to save time and money? Is it possible to transfer units to a BSN from a different major? Please help. I am new to the nursing world and college in general. Your time and commentary is highly appreciated. Thank you, Jezreel Janelle
