Whats the easiest nursing programs to get into?

I know all nursing programs are difficult. I am currently taking my prerequisites right now. By the end of them I should be sitting around a 3.5. I live in California but am open to moving out of state. My main goal is to get in the first year I apply. My boyfriend is also doing nursing and has a 3.6 after prerequisites. Even though it’s highly unlikely we wanted to both go to the same school together for nursing. Because of wanting to get in as soon as possible and wanting to attend a school with my boyfriend I was wondering if any school would give me a higher chance of doing both? I’m open to any feed back that would help increase my chances. The program it’s self can be hard Im not afraid of hard work. Also I have a b in anatomy should I retake for a better grade or leave it?

    Your grades are fine. You are going to get in.

    There are a ton of nursing programs and it’s hard to recommend one. I know of Cal States, Azusa Pacific, california Baptist university, UCLA, etc. I considered those schools when o wanted to move to California.

    All nursing programs are not difficult to get into.

    You can go to a for-profit school like West Coast University and you will be accepted in a matter of weeks.

    Another benefit is it's an accelerated program so you will be done in about 18 months

    The cons are that it costs over $80000.

    But do the math, that's not necessarily a bad thing.  You will also be earning RN wages 18-36 months (or more) before you would be if you went to a CC or CSU.  Which also gives you a leg up on salary increases also.
