Thanks for your responses! I actually want to go to an out of state school, and I don't really plan on moving back to my state after I graduate. So I guess wherever I go I'm probably going to stay in that area. I'm also looking at schools relatively closer to home that have a direct entry freshman program, but the out of state school is my number one choice. It has other classes that I would like to take for electives and stuff and a reasonable tuition. Thanks for your input I really appreciate it[emoji4]

Is it worth it to go to a college across the country(that is my top choice school) if they have a very competitive, but very good upper division nursing program? What would you do if don't get in and staying an extra year isn't an option? I know transferring is an option but would it be worth it to attend that school in the first place? I just want to know your opinions or experiences if you were/are facing a similar dilemma! Thanks guys [emoji4]

Hello, I am currently a junior in high school and UW is my top choice school. I was wondering if it was worth it to apply (if I even get in) then possibly not get into the nursing program and transfer somewhere else? Their website says only 94/400+ students get into the program so I would really have to work my butt off to at least get to the essay portion. It would be great if anyone could share their experiences! Also, what are you all's opinions on having a minor? I've looked through other threads with some saying it's impossible and others having done it. I really want to minor in Korean, but would it be possible with the intense nursing school schedule? Another thing, what was/is your nursing school schedule like? Sorry for all of the questions, I just haven't found the answers to any of them yet. :) Thanks!! PS.- I am in a dual enrollment health/nursing class with a local community college and by the end I will be a CNA, will that help any? I am also starting a volunteer position at a local hospital in December and I'm really excited!
