Still researching myself. So far I've heard of Excelsior, Deaconess and University of Indiana. Go to the distance learning thread and you have enough reading/research materials for the next couple of nights I live in California so Excelsior is out b...
Hi, any replies yet on Kate930's questions re: Deaconess clinicals? Am interested to know too because I'm looking at Deaconess as a possibility. Thanks everybody.
Hi, I'm trying to network with other new grads, or almost graduating students of an LVN program who's also looking into an ADN, RN or BSN online course. Other students from other states are also welcome but I'd like to hear from other Californians be...
My school is the complete opposite. they don't welcome technology at all. I was the first in class to bring a laptop to school and the first to bring a PDA to clinicals. Everybody struggled with writing down the teacher's lectures except for me. It m...

Magz80 is right. There is a longer wait for community college bec. they're cheaper. I think average wait is minimum 2 years for cc. Accelerated programs for ADN (at least where I am, near L.A.) won't even start a waiting list anymore because the wait...

THis forum is absolutely amazing. :rotfl: I am learning a lot and getting a lot of info. I was told in the beginning of my LVN program (by our instructor) that I should not even contemplate on enrolling in an online/distance learning program (for my...
Thanks for the reply. I must say the turn around was pretty quick for you. Did you submitted your own paperwork to the state or your school did it for you? I guess I don't mind waiting anymore. After reading a lot of the threads, it seems everybody t...
