Hello lady dee...the hospital im employed here in Houston, TX partnered with ASU and Lamar State College Port Arthur. I got accepted already to the program which gonna start n January 9.Both of these schools need to partner with your employer. Ask your DON if they will partner with either of these schools so u can do ur clinicals where you're employed. So far Lamar is easy to approach just let your d DON or your educator contact Lamar State College Port Arhtur's director of Nursing and they'll talk. The tuition is $5100 plus for 15 months, You can check their website as well and a rep. will call u and explained to u further. Regards and keep in touch.

I found that the University system hosp down here is an affiliate so I'm going to contact them about a preceptor. I wanted to do ASU since they award financial aid. I'm not employed with any hosps and am trying to work in one currently.

For asu, were the nln exams hard? Also how did you find a preceptor? Did someone from your college have to contact your employer? University system will only accept reps from the school to fill out a rep for a preceptor.
