They will send out letters to all who are accepted and rejected. I think that classes start around August 20, but early registration is around the middle of July and there will be an orientation but I am not sure exactly when that will be. I am also not sure of what it will cost b/c I have applied for the part time program and for the fall there are only 2 nursing courses and no clinicals....but it is different for the full time program. I hope this information helps you. I know that last year for the fall that acceptance letters went out the first week of July so that is what I am hoping for. Are you already CPR certified? Do you know a place where I can get my certification?

Thanks for the info. I do not have my CPR yet but a friend of mine is a Hoover Firefighter and does the classes. He told me to get a group and he would do a class for us. When does it need to be done? Let me know if you want to do it and we will get started ASAP....Did you do part time as 1st or 2nd choice? I am so ready to get started it is driving me crazy....I thought about seeing what books are needed and just start buying them to get ahead. I am just afraid they will change texts or something...Have you started working on dosage calculations? I need to get the name of that book & start that... It seems most have trouble passing that test! Thanks again for the info

I bought the book "calculate with confidence" on ebay..an old copy and just started it. I also bought The series Nursing Made Incredibly Easy in "intro to Pharmacology" and "Health Assessment". I have started working the math book and am picking through the other. I AM IN FOR THE CPR IN HOOVER IF YOU GET A CLASS TOGETHER.....PLS let me know PM me! Would it be a health care workers certified course? You can also do then with the Red Cross. I have the Person who coordinates the classes card in my car...I will post later. She was at my gym a few weeks ago doiing a community class. I think she has a Health Care worker class in July and I think I remember her saying it was around $75

I have applied for 1st choice night program because I could really use to keep working, but my company is about to go through a territory re-allignment and my job may be on the line....so, my days may just be free again....

If you pay $75 for healthcare CPR, you're being cheated. Mine was free because my dad is a cop in the same town, but he was charging everyone else in the class $5.

I still need to get all my vaccines. Not looking forward to that.

I know there are some cheaper ways to do it...I think it is a convenience factor to go to the Red Cross and take there class that is pre-arranged and scheduled months in advance on a certain day. PLUS some of us have to do it on a Saturday.

The Hoover Fire Station located in Inverness offers CPR for Healthcare, the first Saturday of every month. It's free for Hoover residents, and the cost for non-residents is $25.00 I think. You can access the information from the city of Hoover's web site. I hope this helps.

I put the part time program as my only choice and if I don't get in this time then I will just have to figure out a way to apply for the full time that starts in January. I would really love to just get in the part time progam because I could keep my job. I think that we will need the CPR certification before we start classes so whenever we can get it would be great. A lot of people have told me about the Hoover Fire Dept. so let me know if you think you can get us a time to do it. Is it an all day class? I have looked at all of the "Nursing Made Incredibly Easy" books and they seem like they would be helpful. I am thinking about ordering some of those online. It will give me something to do while I patiently wait to hear something.

Ya'll I'm so confused. So I emailed Tiffany like a week or so ago and she said letters would not be coming out until middle or end of July. Then I thought I'd email the other pre-nursing advisor to see what she said and she emailed me this past Tuesday and said that letters would be coming out the end of June. So, is everyone pretty certain it's going to be next week?? I'm so nervous and I'm tired of waiting =) Also, I've registered for the CPR class for July I'm just hoping it isn't the 4th. Do we have to be CPR certified before classes start?

Which advisor told you that it would be the end of June??? B/C Tiffany also told me that it would be July and she made it sound like it would be middle July......I would really like to know when to start looking for the letter. I think that we have to be CPR certified before the first day of class. Where are you getting your certification?
