  1. Delgado CSN Spring 2016

    Class is two days a week, and clinical is two days a week (6 hours or 1 twelve hour day). Weekend clinicals are available but they are very rare. We get to pick our sections, but it it's a free for all online registration that starts at a certain tim...
  2. Delgado CSN Spring 2016

    People work, but it's pretty difficult. What are you work schedules like? I wouldn't judge nursing school by the number of credit hours that are assigned to it. It's a lot more work outside of class as well. It's not impossible, but I didn't know any...
  3. The HESI exam in New Orleans/Metairie

    OH and when taking the HESI I received my score after each section of the test.
  4. The HESI exam in New Orleans/Metairie

    I took the HESI at the Prometric site in Metarie. I was planning on attending LSU so I followed these steps. http://nursing.lsuhsc.edu/Docs/Louisiana%20State%20University%20HSC%20%28LSUHSC%29%20Prometric%20Exam_Eligibility%20Student%20Instructions.p...
  5. LSU or charity uniform

    For class at charity we can wear Navy scrubs for the RN program. Or we can wear casual street clothes. For Clinical: White top with green trim & SON patch. (They will tell you which uniform places carry it) Any white pants of your choosing. Shoe...
  6. LSU School of Nursing or Charity School of Nursing

    I'm about to start my second semester at Charity and I have nothing but positive things to say. I considered LSU Traditional Program and LSU's CARE program. I decided on Charity because of their reputation for preparing you for hitting the floor, and...
  7. Start saving your money now! The health requirements can be quite expensive once you are accepted. Our books were $765 and they are required ebooks. Save your money so you do not have to work a lot when you are in school! Good luck everyone!
  8. LSU School of Nursing SPRING 2014 :-)

    Just reading this thread is giving me anxiety for ya'll. I hope you find out soon. I couldn't imagine waiting for a letter when some have received it weeks ago. I hope ya'll find out soon. For those accepted I'll be a Charity across the road. Maybe w...
  9. Why Do You Want To Be A Nurse?

    I love this thread. @Levitas your response brought tears to my eyes. I'm right there with ya!
  10. Charity SON Spring 2014

    Yes I know ebooks are manditory but one our required texts is not an ebook. Nursing Ethics is not an ebook. (and only about $20 online) I'm so glad we only have to buy our textbooks at the beginning and we're good for the two years. The uniform tops...
  11. Charity SON Spring 2014

    lol @ nursing school kool-aid! haha, I think we all are on it at this point. Hopefully our enthusiasm will last once we start! Everyone is warning us about not having a life, etc. I think we can all handle it. I went to the open house on Saturday and...
  12. Charity SON Spring 2014

    I went today. It went well. It was mostly an information session on our health requirements. We also received info on applying to state boards. We've got some fees ahead of us lol. You'll also be given the name and info for your advisor. We'll meet w...
  13. LSU School of Nursing SPRING 2014 :-)

    @Chin05 there's always LSU's accelerated if you're feeling up to it! But you'll have to wait until the fall of 2014 to start that.
  14. LSU School of Nursing SPRING 2014 :-)

    @Chin05 I struggled with this as well. I decided the best option for me was to go to Charity for my ASN and then immediately start a RN to BSN bridge when I finished. LSU's RN to BSN is short and you'll only attend class once a month I believe. Every...
