I agree with you absolutely! I waited an year and a half to complete my basic GE requirements. Now, I need to wait another year to complete A&P Micro Bio, because of lack of courses, thanks to the budget cuts for the California Community Colleges. Now, they are telling me that even if I get all my pre reqs done by September 2015, there is no guaranty as to acceptance to the ADN!

Two private schools in Los Angeles area want close to $100,000 for four years. It seems Puerto Rico schools are wonderful provided that I can *learn* nursing and *pass* the NCLEX.

PR schools seem accredited by a regionally accrediting body just like the Florida Schools. That means, perhaps, I can join a MSN program online once I graduate from PR.

If you can't find an entry level job, you could always get experience by volunteering at nursing home, or a dialysis center or even at at ERs. Six months at each location will get you the experience to get a paid "gig." In fact, some of these entities will hire you once they find that you are good at what you do and you are a diligent nurse.

Bashing non US or non mainland nursing graduates for your troubles appears very unprofessional.

Jen_Jen88, I think you graduated from UMET, did you not?

I wonder how well you did on your NCLEX? Would you recommend UMET? I can't pm you yet, but I would like to know more about your experience.
