I haven't completed all my prerequisites but my only concern is getting the RN license. A nurse in NYC makes about 75-80 a year so paying them back wouldn't be too much of an issue. In this economy the medical field is a smart move. As for their accreditation as long as you get your RN license it doesn't matter. Its not like you don't have your masters. I wouldn't be going to this school unless their are no other option. UCF has already deined me because of my low GPA. If you have other options please take them but a one year accelerated program works for me. 30,000 is alot of money but student loans are often the best investment you can make. Loan interest rates are often low and tax deductable which is a good thing when you move into a higher earning bracket.

this school is too new i would not put my money on it!

keiser is a great school! if you are looking for an accelerated program, having a master would knowdo down most of the pre requisites leaving you with basicaly anatomy physiology and microbiology- wich you can get it all done in 3 months, and then take 12 months to graduate!

Ok the program is a 24 month ADN program.

10 of this 24 months are the pre requisites and if you have them already you only go for 14 months!

it will cost you about 6000 a semester then again (3 semesters is what you need + pre reqs)

if you are in a hurry i recomend the 24 month program, if not, just take those classes at valencia and seminole (instead of 10 months will take you about 1 year and a half including summer) but it will be cheaper...

i just could not do that i am on my last pre req now, and in january i start my core classes!

they also have a ADN -BNS online program...

i live like 6 miles from celebration and would love to work in that hospital!
