Getting to the point to even start considering nursing schools is a HUGE deal. I have let so many distractions keep me from making my dream of becoming a nurse a reality. But no more! I am so excited...my pre-reqs are finished...it's my time now!

Almost 19 months since my initial post...time flies. Life in LaSalle's Achieve Nursing program is never dull! They have put in place so many parameters to make sure that we do well on the boards. This transition is not easy, on the staff or student...

The program is NOT a cake walk. It will take alot of dedication, sacrifice, and hardwork if you want to get A's and B's. The program is set up to accommodate those who work in the day. I'm almost one year in...and I can tell you that I have missed...

I do not think that all hope is lost. I would strive to kick butt in the two science classes that you will take in the Fall B+ or better...that way your grades will average out. Summer accelerated courses are TOUGH (as you know)! I took AP II and it...
I have my orientation on 8/15 and begin classes the week of 8/26. I have purchased basically everything, and the books were gifted to me by a student who no longer needs them (thank goodness they didn't change the books). I too had to get a two-step...

So excited! Found out that I was accepted to my first and only choice. It has been a long journey, as I have applied to other programs in the past...but my grades weren't were they should have been. After many tears, sleepless nights, and course r...
