UC Davis and nursing program?


Recently, I saw an organisation partner with UC davis, and sponsored them to start a school of nursing. Is this school going to be admitting undergrad students now to study nursing and get a BSN degree?,
To go into pre-med, what year in college is the best year to take the MCAT exams,
I am planning to tranfer to UC Davis this sem. as a junior transfer, Does that mean I will be in the third year in Davis, as a junior?
Lastly, apart from finish a bachelors degree with 120 units, are there any other things/situations that must hinder one from finishing at the earliest possible time.
I will appreciate answers from anyone, even if not all. Your contribution could help my decision

1) According to www.ucdavis.edu , they are starting a nursing program. This program will award doctorate, masters, and bachelor degrees. Looks like though they'll start admitting to their bachelors program starting 2010 or 2011.

2) If you want to try to get in the year right after you graduate from college, then you should take your mcats towards the middle to end of your junior year. If you plan to/want to take a year off in between, then you can push that back a year.

3) It depends on your transferable units, or what UCD has approved to transfer over. After that, they're coverted to quarter system units and if they're enough to put you at junior standing, then you're a junior.

4) There's more to graduating than just getting 120 units. There are requirements you have to fulfill for your major, then for you college (letters and science, ag, engineering), then for the university. Don't worry, you will be informed of your requirements, if not in person at a meeting, then on paper, or in the General Catalogue. You can always meet with a counselor in your college to figure it out, as well as on-campus resources like an advisor in your major or First Resort. If you're trying to finish as fast as possible, then you need to plan out all your classes that you need to graduate, along with when they're offered (not all classes are offered every quarter), and when you're gonna take them (including probably summer sessoins). After that, you still could run into the problem of not getting in the classes you need due to them being full. Basically, to maximize your chances, understand what you need, plan ahead, be flexible when things don't go according to plans.

Go Aggies!

The nursing school launched the school in July.

You will be a junior at Davis as long as all of your credit transfer.

Are you interested in nursing or pre-med? I am confused.
