Question:
I have been attending a community college for a couple of years now. I just about have my general associate's degree. I am moving to Chicago early next year and I really want to apply to a couple of the universities so I can hopefully get into a nursing program there. I have been looking online at their sites but it seems so overwhelming for some reason! What is the best way to go about applying when I don't live in the area? ( I live in Michigan). Also, if I need references, who is a credible person to ask for a reference? I would really appreciate any help I can get since I didn't do this whole process right out of high school - I am 24 years old :-) Thanks!
Answer:
ask a professor for a reference...a lot a nursing programs have pre-reqs; make sure youve those completed...i live in mi also and i want to go to grad school in chicago...request some more info from the places you're interested in...schedule visits also...
Talk to someone in the guidance or councilors(sp) office they should be able to direct you with advice on FAFSA/grants paperwork and transferring credits etc... Also, check out FASTWEB.com there's all kinds of crazy scholarships and grants to apply for- especially for non traditional students... Good luck
