Where to apply and course route to take

[mrtc0139]

HI everyone, I am hoping to get some feedback, please. I am a PSW from a private college and am interested in the becoming an RN. I need to obtain some high school course in order to even be considered for either RPN or RN; which is fine. I have already started them. I see I would have better luck going into the RPN course and then bridging once complete to the RN program. I also see you can do your RPN in 16 months as long as you do the semesters back to back. Again; also fine..

I am wondering, however;

What school should I apply to? I am really looking at Mohawk but I was advised to have a few other places too just in case. So what do you guys think of these schools:

Mohawk

Humber

sheridan

I am worried about Sheridan though as the reputation doesn't seem all that great but its the closest to my house.

I can take the fast track and finished RPN in 16 months then go right into BSCN and go for 3 more years to be an RN. I just find most schools do not take private career colleges PSW certificates to bridge into RPN.

so when I apply do I put both courses on the application at Mohawk and Humber? and see what one I get into? how hard is it to get into?

I know Humber grads have no issues getting jobs, anyone knows about Mohawk and Sheridan? any feed back on what I should do course wise and where I should apply would be great.

You might get more answers if you post to the forum for the state you're in. Or if you put the schools you're considering in the header. Good luck.
