   cdids replied to lkk0718's topic in Colorado

   Hi future students. I'm just gearing up to graduate CU in 5 weeks, it goes by quick!! I never used the CDs for the earlier classes, but for some of your classes later on in the program they could be required. The CDs do have a lot of practice ques...

   cdids replied to nursestobe's topic in Colorado

   Congrats on being accepted to nursing school! I am currently in the accelerated program at CU and like Summit said, working part time is doable. I also work 2 jobs right now, I am lucky because both positions allow for flexible hours. I would say ...

3. CU Denver Nursing Spring 2012

   cdids replied to kristin6608's topic in Colorado

   For all of you posters that are on the call list... don't give up hope! I started at CU in Summer 2010 and I too was call listed at first. In fact, lots of my fellow nursing students were call listed. From what I have seen/heard, they usually go t...

   cdids replied to Sand_Dollar's topic in Colorado

   No PDA necessary, thank goodness! The only piece of technology that I bought was a laserjet printer, which are relatively inexpensive and so worth it. There are A TON of things you will be printing out, and having the ability to print things out fa...

   cdids replied to Sand_Dollar's topic in Colorado

   Congrats derjac! They say that getting in is the hardest part of nursing school, so you got that out of the way :) I started the accelerated program at CU this summer and I'm really loving it. I don't know if you have this info but I am including ...

6. Seeking information on BSN programs in Colorado: Pros/Cons

   cdids replied to MR1010's topic in Colorado

   Not that it really matters, but the nursing program at CU is actually tied to the Denver campus, not the Boulder campus. I am currently finishing up my first semester with the UCD (University of Colorado-Denver) program and I am very happy with it!

7. New thread for CU Summer 2010 group

   cdids replied to DenRN71's topic in Colorado

   I'm thinking that our classes end 7/30. That's what it says on the course schedules and if you look on the academic calendar College of Nursing is in parenthesis after the 8 week course end date. I hope so anyway!! I think we will need a month off...

8. New thread for CU Summer 2010 group

   cdids replied to DenRN71's topic in Colorado

   It's great to hear that my fellow wait-listers got "the call". I can't believe that school starts in a month!!! So much to do. I kinda got screwed on scheduling because they were having IT problems so I couldn't register until 11:30 so I ended up...

9. What the heck have I gotten myself into LOL

   cdids replied to guiltysins's topic in General Students

   I feel the same way! I start classes in June and I am so excited and yet so freaked out at the same time. Nursing is totally different than anything I've done before. Just thinking about all the things I will be learning makes my head spin. I usu...

10. anyone applying to CU for 2010?

    cdids replied to Sand_Dollar's topic in Colorado

    No, they were supposed to send us all of the information on how and when to register as well as info on the drug testing. All I received in the mail so far was the in state tuition information.

    cdids replied to Sand_Dollar's topic in Colorado

    Did you get a registration packet yet Stellagirl? The email basically said they totally screwed up the information for registration and need to send out correct packets to us. I got a call this morning from Julie, MUCH more pleasant than the other ...

12. anyone applying to CU for 2010?

    cdids replied to Sand_Dollar's topic in Colorado

    Well... I just got off the phone with someone from the Nursing School and she was less than cordial with me! After making me feel stupid for calling instead of just reading the email she said they are still working on it and should get info soon. I...

    cdids replied to Sand_Dollar's topic in Colorado

    I haven't received mine either but I did get the email. I was going to call them tomorrow to inquire about it... seems like the whole thing is a bit of a cluster right now.

14. Call List at CU?

    cdids replied to DenRN71's topic in Colorado

    Thanks! I was very surprised to get a call so quick. Another friend of mine who is on the call list talked to an admissions person and confirmed that they will continue to "call around" to all the applicants in the pool until someone answers the ph...

    cdids replied to DenRN71's topic in Colorado

    Hey all- I was on the call list with you but I got a call on Saturday... I might be the girl you read about :) I went to the nursing school yesterday and signed my intent form and got a little info. There is no ranking system for the call list. Ba...
