Anyways, I'm currently a 2nd year student at CSUSB and I'm coming across a rough situation. My parents reach the "middle-class" finance area, thus I'm unable to recieve free $$ aid. It feels like a burden having to pay out of pocket using my parents money, I do have a side job as an AVID tutor but it doesn't do much. I regret not starting at a Community College ( SBVC or Crafton ) and now I'm at the point where I can't decide what path I should take? - My plan as of now is to complete Fall at CSUSB and then go to Valley college for the remaining 2 quarters of the year to complete pre-requisites then come back to CSUSB in Fall'17 (I talked to the advisor and they said I can miss 2 quarters and not get dropped - Summer doesn't count) - My problem is.. I don't know if I should just stay in Community College to become an RN at about $5k then transfer to a University (Public or Private - CSUSB/LLU). If I apply at CSUSB's Nursing Program I will need to finish: Anatomy/Physio 1 Anatomy/Physio 2 Microbiology - Currently taking this Fall 2016 If I apply to Loma Linda University Nursing Program I will need to finish: AP 1 AP 2 - Microbiology - Currently taking this Fall 2016 Lifespan Development 2 Physical Education - Currently taking 1 this Fall 2016 Humanities - Need 2 more
