   I just got an email acceptance this evening too! So glad to know before the holiday break since I was debating applying to an ADN program as a back-up. Now the anxiety of actually attending, paying for it, and getting through! Best of luck to all of...

   atkpop replied to wpolorocker's topic in Post Graduate

   The video is new this year and is replacing interviews. My understanding is they did not do interviews last year but may have intended to at the beginning of the application process. I think they were overwhelmed by the number of applicants last year...

   My school offers A&P I and A&P II in one semester - eight weeks of each. In class 10/hours week. It was a lot but I managed to get As in both. I was also taking 6 other units of "filler" classes, not working but two little kids at home. It wa...

    You can most cetainly breastfeed throughout a pregnancy! If an OB was telling me otherwise I'd seek a second opinion, especially if your older child was only 9 months old. AAP makes the "recommendation of exclusive breastfeeding for about 6 months, f...

    atkpop replied to wpolorocker's topic in Post Graduate

    I'm hoping to use part of my husband's GI Bill to cover at least the first year. Recent changes allow spouses and children of active duty military to use the benefit if the service member will not use it. Otherwise, I think the cost would definitely ...

    I can't pm either - brand new and don't have enough posts. I think if you click on my screen name you'll see my profile and then there is a friend request on the right hand side. I'm not sure, but if we are friends maybe we can PM?

    @DC275 I saw your posts here and noticed you are a military spouse, as am I. We have orders to HI this summer and I want to apply to the MEPN for fall 2013. Would you mind "friending" me on this forum so we might be able to correspond? I'd love to he...
