St. Pauls School of Nursing or Swedish Institute

[Ac4414]

Hi i recently just got kicked out of the 4 year nursing program at my school for not passing two nursing classes with a C. My GPA is quite low right now, 3.07 because i did poorly on my nursing classes. Im considering switching over to a private school and get my associates first and eventually getting my BSN. im considering between St. pauls or swedish institute. Are there any current students attending this school right now or recent graduates. I know the tuition is quite high for both of these schools but i have several credits i can transfer over. will having my prereqs be able to lower the tuition in any way. I have heard that St. Pauls is not accredited and that can be an issue as well. im planning on getting my bsn later on in the future, will no accreditation be an issue at other schools? overall, any information on these two schools will be greatly appreciated, was finding a job hard after graduation, any graduates continue on to getting their bsn after graduating? Thank you so much!

Hello!

The first thing you want is the school to be accredited by ACEN... Search ACEN Accredited Nursing Programs

Get your ASN, pass the NCLEX-RN, get a job, then worry about the BSN. There are plenty of BSN online programs that are affordable and very doable while working.

Hope this helps!
