Good grief ... if so, that should be illegal. Seriously.

haha!
i don't know if it's that much, BUT my friend graduated from their LPN program and said it cost $25,000.00!!!!! which, i think is insane. she said it covered "everything" -- like books, uniforms, lab fees, etc. .. but still. that's crazy.
so i figured if the LPN program costs that much, then i'm sure the RN is at least double that .. so probably about $50,000.00?? ridiculous!
i think my LPN program cost $5,000? maybe?
and the RN program that i'm about to start i think will total to be approx. $10,000.00 (southside regional medical ctr. - school of nursing) -- which i think is pricey, but ..sigh .. worth it!
but i don't know what MCI thinks they're doing ..
was it hard to get into southside regional and did u get financial aid. also what pre reqs did u take before u applied. thanks

I graduate from MCI in VIrginia Beach on 4/30/09. The program here and in Richmond was just increased to about $34k for the RN (ADN)...
was the rn program hard and what were the hours for the day class?
$34,000 is insane to me, still! good gracious ..
about SRMC -
i need to have: two semesters of english, a math course, microbiology, anatomy and physiology (2 semesters), nutrition, speech, and medical terminology i think?
all the prerequisites are listed on srmconline.com's website under the nursing program info., i think.
the program will be challenging, of course, like any nursing program, but i have a good feeling about it and i think the instructors are very good.
we'll see..
i start monday! ahhh! so scared!
