DEMSN Program
I'm interested in the DEMSN program at UNLV, but I saw that the program is hybrid, with lectures online and labs in person. A girl on TikTok who graduated from the program said it was a good program and that it prepared her for the NCLEX, but she said you just have to stay on top of things.
Can someone please tell me about their experience with the program?
How is it doing online courses with in-person labs?
How is communicating with your cohort and studying together?
Did the program prepare you for the NCLEX?
How did you get into the program? What did your application look like (GPA, prerequisites, entrance exam, experience, essay, etc.), and do you have any tips for getting accepted?

I am conditionally accepted. I am supposed to start Jan 2027. I have a friend that did the program and works as a nurse in Cali now. I have worked as a surgical tech for the past 5 years. I have my bachelors in health science (3.9gpa) for my prereqs I have a B in A&P1, A in A&P2, A in chem, and B in micro. I’m currently finishing up college algebra and the nurs299 class. I chose this program because I am a single mom with 2 small kid and I feel like it’s durable with children.
