I was reading this forum and noticed that every school has different number of pre-reqs to nursing program. For example, in my college you can not apply without:
Also, psychology, microbiology, and sociology are strongly advised to be taken prir to NP. GPA -no less then 2.8 (however, nursing advisor said that in reallity it must be at least 3.4;)).
Additional classes to graduate, in addition to the actual nursing classes:
Writing II
Developmental Psychology
A & P II
Oral Communications
Medical Microbiology
Heritage/Humanities
At this point, I'm either taking, or have already taken everything except Medical Micro. I'm still waiting to hear whether I got in or not. I should know sometime this month.
If accepted, I'll have to get in my CNA training this summer before classes start.
At my university, we're required to have all of the core/pre-req's completed before enrolling into the nursing program. Our program is tough and they want the student to have the opportunity to concentrate on the nursing courses without having to worry about other classes. Makes sense to me.
I have a step-sister that lives in GA, She said its very hard to find a school with no waiting list, I think she finished with a different Major because she waited about two years. She lives in Stone mountain.
