admissions and college

<p>My friend wants to become a nurse in USA and she wants to know which is the best college for undergraduate in nursing in regions like :-
1.Texas
2.Colorado
3.Boston
And is SAT compulsory if she is taking GCE exams?
Thankyou.</p>

<p>I know nothing about their nursing programs in particular, but Northeastern and Boston College are good schools in Boston.</p>

<p>Does your friend live in China?
Otherwise schools won't accept the GRE in place of the SAT.</p>

<p>GRE? Isn't that for graduate study? Who on earth would take that while applying for undergrad?</p>

<p>Chinese students. Neither the SAT nor the ACT are available in China.</p>

<p>Er...really?</p>

<p>Check the individual college's web site under internationalstudents admission requirements. Usually they list the equivalent to sat's that they will accept.</p>

<p>Is GCE from the UK like A levels and O levels? I think she will still need to take the SAT or ACT if this is what you're talking about, but ask the schools, of course.</p>

<p>Here is a link for the USA nursing programs accredited by the National League of Nursing. From this list, your friend can link directly to the websites of individual programs to find out more specifics such as sites for clinical rotations. Nursing programs have been challenged to recruit and maintain faculty, so that is one area to investigate along with the location for clinical rotations (academic medical centers sometimes provide better experiences than small community hospitals). </p>

<p>You are still required to take both SATs and SAT IIs where applicable if you have GCSEs/A-Levels. I also study under the British system so I do know that =P</p>

<p>Ohh, sorry..... I misread GCE as GRE..................... ;)</p>

<p>SATs/ACTs are available in China..just not everywhere.
And at my school, a lot of people send their TOEFL scores rather than SATs so if she's international, SATs/ACTs aren't compulsory..</p>

<p>Many selective schools still require SATs from internationals.</p>
