I am currently enrolled to become an LVN through Galen college. I do understand the cost is a little high, but I will be able to at least support myself once the year program is completed AND continue my education. I was looking at the SAC website and I guess I am a little confused. (http://mysaccatalog.alamo.edu/preview_program.php?catoid=4&poid=531&returnto=1063)

1st step: go to Nursing Orientation. An advisor will not provide you with accurate information, and Nursing advisors are not available to non-nursing or pre-nursing students. During the semester, orientation is held at 1pm every Wednesday. That could have changed. If I am not mistaken, you should have all of your science COMPLETED prior to application. However, there is a score by which your acceptance will be determined. GPA is a fraction and so is the number of times you take a science course . It would be best to gor to orientation and take notes. Best of Luck.
