Hi everyone.
I hope that someone will be able to offer some advice.
My friend has just moved over from the phillipines. She has a diploma in management from the phillipines, but is now interested in becoming a nurse here in the US.
Her Aunt and other family members (who are currently nurses) have told her that to get into nursing school, all that she needs is her diploma from the Phillipines? How true is this?
Does she not have to have some sort of science background?
I am an MD, so not very knowledgeable about the criteria for entering nursing school. if she was to try to apply for med school, i know that she would have to do pre-med. I assumed that it would be similar for nursing school?
Anyway, any advice would be greatly appreciated.
