Top Answer:
Take it from me. I've lived in Las Vegas for 10 years. UNLV is probably your best bet for all three.
IT doesn't really matter if it's a "good School" for a particular subject, what matter most are the teachers/mentors/advisors you get (and that just takes a little perserverence, and motivation to find them).
If you want to go into Law School, UNLV's law school is definitely improving. It is actually RANKED in the Top 100 law schools. So you won't have a problem there. They have fairly updated buildings, and a really "brand new" moot courtroom (Just built in the last year).
Careers with Philosophy and Sociology are hard to come by, I won't sugar-coat it. However, if you market yourself as a "well-rounded" educated person, many big corporations could want you for a variety of types of jobs. You just have to look and well... ask. There are resources at UNLV's Career center that would help you out, as well. UNLV has a job fair every year too, so you can actually show up as if your doing an interview, bring resumes and seriously talk to company reps to see if they want you.
Don't worry about it being "UNLV".... Because I'm here to tell you that in 4 years, I'm getting my B.S in Biotechnology, and am heading off to grad school (all expense paid for 5 years) in the fall. It doesn't matter that UNLV isn't the best school, you can make it work for you, just you NEED to put the effort into it. Get to know professors. They help you with a LOT of things, especially because they've been there before.
Good luck. If you have anymore questions about UNLV or nevada in general, you can message me!

Well, there is CSN- Community College of Southern Nevada which has a campus in Henderson and many, many campuses in Las Vegas.
There is Nevada State College which is located in Henderson.
Then there is University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV) which is about a mile off of the strip and across from the airport.
Each college has its pros and cons. You can visit the websites to determine which might be best suited to your needs.

You have a number of choices - and it is highly unlikely that they would require you to repeat any courses if your LPN courses were satisfactorily completed at accredited institutions.
Here are the community colleges with an RN program:
College of Southern Nevada

Elko, NV
Nevada State College
Henderson, NV
Truckee Meadows Community College

Top Answer:
UNLV
I think it is 3rd in the country behind Purdue and Cornell
Top Answer:
Such programs aren't usually part of the curriculum at a four-year college. You'd need to look at a community college or an occupational/vocational program. Do a search on "fashion merchandising training, Nevada" [state names are capitalized] and you should find some leads.
I'm currently a nursing student here in the Philippines and my family is planning go go back there. Do you guys know any Nursing schools at Southern California and Nevada (preferably near Henderson or Las Vegas)?
Can you please include reasons why you think I should try on that school and an estimated range on the tuition fee per semester.
Good nursing schools in terms of quality of education, environment, facilities, and job opotunities when I graduate.
