1. New Grad Friendly Hospitals in Georgia

   Atlanta6789 replied to NurseBunky's topic in Georgia

   NurseDawg06, I am thrilled that you landed a job at Kennestone's ICU - and are so happy there. Congratulations! I'm starting my final year at NGCSU, and was wondering if it was difficult getting at job in ICU at Kennestone. ??? I've heard ICU jobs...

2. Another Acceptance, I don't know what to do?

   Atlanta6789 replied to Blessone's topic in Georgia

   Personally, I think you should go for the ASN. I had the same situation (BSN and ASN acceptances), but opted to go the ASN route - simply due the 'cost' of the BSN. Not financial cost, but the 'cost' of having to go to school five days per week, wi...

4. North Metro Tech- day classes?

   Atlanta6789 replied to justagirl992's topic in Georgia

   North Metro Tech doesn't currently have an associate RN program. They only offer a LPN program. HOWEVER... North Georgia College & State University (aka "NGCSU") DOES offer an ASN program at the North Metro campus. It is a two-year program, but...

5. what is on the TEAS???

   Atlanta6789 replied to FNPhopeful's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I personally didn't think the TEAS was difficult - and I'm pretty much an average student. I do agree with the previous person who said that the worst part about the Math portion was the fact that you didn't have enough time to finish all the proble...

   Hello. I am a first-year NGCSU student, and just like EagleGirl - I have nothing but praise for the program, thus far. I have been extremely happy at North Georgia - I think you'll find that most people here on allnurses.com feel pretty much the sa...

8. Who really loves NGCSU?

   Atlanta6789 replied to abmsam's topic in Georgia

   I am a first year NGCSU student, and I have to say that I really do love it. I am extremely happy with North Georgia, thus far. I am at the North Metro campus, so I cannot personally speak for Gainesville -- but there are others, here, that do atte...

9. Lanier Tech or NGCSU

   Atlanta6789 replied to jiffynick's topic in Georgia

   As far as I know, the CNA certification classes are NOT transferrable to your ASN or BSN from NGCSU. I know that if you are an LPN, you can bridge over to the ASN program, but the CNA certification is simply good for working as a tech (CNA) in a hos...

10. NGCSU- 2005 Dietary Guidelines

    Atlanta6789 replied to Reidme's topic in Georgia

    Hey, gals. I remember Michelle saying something about us needing those guidelines, but I am not sure if we need to print them out before tomorrow. (That is one LONG printjob!!! Yikes!) I started printing them out (ten pages at a time), but then ha...

11. NGCSU- Need Info on Fall Schedule

    Atlanta6789 replied to Reidme's topic in Georgia

    Sounds great! Regarding the driving issue, I, too, will gladly relinquish that job of teaching my kids to drive to my hubbie. I think he has more patience (and a lot more courage) than I do! LOL And, the more I think about it -- those days are not...

    Atlanta6789 replied to Reidme's topic in Georgia

    Hi, Jules. I will be at North Metro -- is that where you will be, also? Yes, the whole middle school thing is kinda' throwing ME for a loop -- she's handling the whole thing just fine, but I keep thinking "I'm too young to be the mother of a middle ...

13. NGCSU- Need Info on Fall Schedule

    Atlanta6789 replied to Reidme's topic in Georgia

    :) Hey Jules, Althea, Lisa, and others... Do we need to plan to be in Dahlonega at 9:00 a.m. for advisement and registration, or is registration simply on a "drop-in" basis between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m.? (Just trying to plan around trying to drop off my...
