Seems like UofOk is a special case that recently decided to just accept all qualified applicants even though it didn’t have the room. That’s not normal at all. It was a 20% acceptance rate before that. There’s plenty of direct admission from high school programs that allow you to stay in the nursing program so long as you keep a certain GPA in all your classes. That’s the safer bet. It’s a little too early for my comfort to know the outcome of the surge in students from OK. It’ll be interesting to see what their pass rate will be on their boards.
