I currently attend BRCC and I hope to either be able to apply to Southern, Nicholls, ULL, or BR General maybe even Charity by next spring. The problems is they all have different requirements and timetables. I really wanted my BSN the first time around. I took my psychology, sociology, and english classes already. I am already burnt out because I am constantly having to change my classes to focus on their requirements. The major problem I have is getting into a A&P class. At BRCC the requirement to take the class is BIO101 &101L, 102 & 102L (I have both lecture already and taking both labs this semester), at Southern for instants its CHem and the lab. I found a a&p class online thats accrediated do anyone know if any of these schools would accept that? Do anyone have information on this schools? I heard that Southern do not use their gpa 2.60 they have a lottery system to admit students is that true? Also how many times a year do these schools admit?
Sorry this is so long. Thanks in advance

I would talk to someone in admissions at the school or your choice to find out if the online class is acceptable to them.

I agree with learninmama. You should definitely speak to an admissions counselor at each school.
I'd hate to tell to you put your eggs in one basket because it might not be the best idea.
But it sounds like satisfying requirements for all these diff schools is whats burning you out. And I can imagine how it is.
I would suggest that you just focus on satisfying requirements for the school (no. 1) with the least or "easiest" admissions criteria. Then apply to all the schools that will accept the prereqs you have (can get pretty expensive so you should be confident that youre better than qualified for acceptance). But don't wait idly for an admission decision, be working on satisfying the requirements for the next school (no. 2) or boosting your gpa. It works. Either way it goes, you'll be increasing your chances of being accepted into one of those programs.
If you do this, I'm sure you'll be accepted before you even finish your list of schools.
Also, OLOL College, while pricey, does not require the A&P labs. It sounds like you'll be done with your biol and you can enroll in A&P spring '10...you'll be home free!
