  • You'll likely have to complete all that and then some.

    See your adviser for additional information.

  • You have three options in Albuquerque, primarily. UNM, CNM, and University of Pheonix. I would assume that UNM would be the best place for that particular degree, becuase the medical section of UNM works extremely closely with UNM hospital. However, you might want to consider taking your general education courses at CNM, simply because of the difference of cost, then start at UNM when you need to start taking classes for your major.

  • Yes, you will have to do all of that.

    You should talk to your advisor at mt. san jac. ASAP for more details.
