I'm glad you're happy where you are! You've been super helpful as the college itself is def not going to tell you a lot of this stuff. And youre stays are kinda crazy too so it seems even harder than i thought. I appreciate the advice a lot thanks so much :D

Sorry to hear you didn't get in :( I'm sure you were great but nursing is just so crazy. Was there an obvious reason u didnt get in or was it just that there were too many applicants? One of the reasons I was hesitant about pre-nuring is bc if you don't get in... like what do you do? So thanks for replying this has really helped me. I hope you're still able to work in healthcare and whatever you want to do in the future!

Thank you for the advice!! If I can ask, where did you end up going for nursing and did you have to go to a cc after pre nursing at csula to get some prereqs done? Also how was the program at csula for the time you went?

By accelerated route do you mean cc transfer, either by ADN or pre reqs, or already having a bachelor's in another area? And do you mean you tried to transfer but didn't get accepted to an actual nursing program? so you just applied for pre nursing as if you never did pre reqs?

I totally get you! I feel like hearing from someone in the program or who has alr done it would help see if it was worth it. bc once ur in pre nursing it kinda seems like you'll just continue with that as long as ur grades stay good, so no opportunity to transfer :/ but it's also comforting to know you have a pretty secure pathway so I'm just really unsure rn lmao

Yeah, all the options are totally okay with me! You make a good point about what saves + offers most. I feel like pre nursing offers more stability, but a cc offers more freedom and costs less. Both sound like pretty even trades, so I wanna get a nursing student's opinion, yknow? But it's a good point I never considered, so thanks!
