    Doesn’t virtually every University and Junior College have a nursing program?

    There is clear and widespread agreement among the public and educators that all students need to be proficient computer users or “computer literate.” However, while districts are spending a great deal of money on technology, there seems to be only a vague notion of what computer literacy really means. Can the student who operates a computer well enough to play a game, send e-mail or surf the Web be considered computer literate? Will a student who uses computers in school only for running tutorials or an integrated learning system have the skills necessary to survive in our society? Will the ability to do basic word processing be sufficient for students entering the workplace or post-secondary education?

    Clearly not. In too many schools, teachers and students still use computers only as the equivalent of expensive flash cards, electronic worksheets, or as little more than a typewriter. The productivity side of computer use in the general content area curriculum is neglected or grossly underdeveloped (Moursund, 1995).

    Firstly, don´t stress out! There are more options than you think.
    When I was looking for nursing programs I found this website which is kind of a guide to nursing programs in your area. It´s really helpful if you know where you want to be, which it sounds like you do.
    http://www.topnursingcolleges.com/
    If that doesn´t work for you, there are a bunch of good forums where you can actually talk to real live nurses, like http://allnurses.com/ . Also, for a bit more light-hearted fun, and also some good advice, check out http://scrubsmag.com/tag/nursing-school/.
