Through the first one? Clinicals are the only thing I never asked about because I figured we had to learn what we were doing first lol.

Yes from what I understand starting about half way through the first semester we go to the hospitals.

As I mentioned on my previous post you go to the hospital usually the last weeks of each half. During clinical hours (you might want to call them "Lab" hours) you practice the skills you will be using when you go to the hospital. Once again usually the lasts weeks of each half.

Im an on my second semester on the online option. Clinicals work the same for generic or online. The first week you will go T and W. After the first week you are assigned either a T or a W. Basically the entire semester has two weeks only where you have to go both days. The hours for the other weeks are from 7:30 to around 4:30, when you go to the hospital (usually the last weeks of each half) you have to be there by 6:30 and stay until around 4:30pm. I hope this helps.

Do you like the online option? And what do you think is the most difficult about doing it online.?

so now that we all have received the letters - what campus is everyone attending? What really are the differences other than some saying central is harder or north is this and south is that ... really what are the differences? Also has anyone used ceufast.com for their certifications?

IMHO, the BC nursing program is tough and competitive within itself...That's why they have maintain a really high NCLEX score on the initial try for many years. I really don't think there is a difference only and except where clinical are taken. Congrats and good luck.

Not all campuses take ceufast.com. You will have to check with the campus you are going to attend. They will tell you that at the preadmissions meeting.

Hey Lina - I set an appointment for the week after orientation - this way I dont have to wait longer that necessary and will bring all the paperwork they give. Some people are using a walkin clinic but my insurance is cheaper than the clinic.

Question to everyone/anyone: which hospitals are affiliated with which campuses? I know I saw this somewhere but cant seem to find it.

Thanks

We're only a few days away from our orientation session. When I RSVPed, I confirmed that there is no required dress code. I strongly suggest bringing a notebook and a few things to write with in case you misplace one. Who's excited? ;D
