University of Kentucy-2nd Degree BSN

[wildcatwant]

Hi all,

I am about to graduate from the Universty of Alabama with a B.S. however I have known for a little while that I do not want to pursue employment in my major's field. I am interested in hearing from anyone who has gone through or are going through the University of Kentucky's 2nd degree BSN program. Application, interview, GPA, and any other information you know of, have heard, etc is welcome. I will graduate with a 3.2 GPA and am finishing up my prereqs to apply in August 2011 for the program. Any info out there?

Good luck with finding a good program.

I'm in the traditional BSN program at UK, but I'm friends with several of our 2nd degree students. If you can ask some more specific questions, I would probably be able to answer them.

For what it's worth, I had a 3.4 GPA with 3.5 science grades when I was accepted, and I was accepted into the Spring rather than the Fall semester. This means that the students accepted into the Fall semester likely had a better GPA.

I just recently got accepted into UK BSN program and I will be starting there in the Spring of 2012. I was wondering if you could tell me a little about the program. I am very excited and nervous to start, and I was wondering if you had any advice?
