Hey
Im a junior in college, who recently began to consider nursing. I have already completed 51/2 semesters as a liberal arts major, and i am planning to graduate may 2005. I am considering getting my second degree (BS in nursing) at a public college near my home. This way, i won't have to worry about changing majors, or paying the extra tuition for the university i am enrolled in now.
If i take whatever prerequisite courses i can over the summer and the following two semesters, i will probably have 5 semesters to go for my nursing degree after i graduate. Is there any easier way to do this? My parents want me to finish my degree at the school i'm in now...but i wont be able to take nursing courses there unless i am enrolled in the school. Are there any accelerated programs for nursing?
I dont have the resources to go to school far away from where i live (Connecticut) and i will be paying for school myself. Is it wise for me to finish my B.A. in psychology and THEN enroll for a second degree in nursing? Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
thanks,
Ari.
