Has anyone applied to the Bachelors to BSN program at Felician College for May 2010?

Who were you in contact with? The program cost around $56,000. I took chem, but got a C, so have to take it during the program and once you get in, you can only take the pre-reqs you need at FC no other place, thats what she told me.

I took a computer course a long time ago. The schedule from what i was told is M-F 7-3 or 8-4, with clinicals being every Friday. You dont know how to drive?? What is your name by the way?

[willyt7]

Its a def expensive but well worth it. The Hospital i work at starts nurses any where from $78,000 to $86,000.

do u know if clinicals will be away from the school? like in a hospital? omg i a screwed if they r since i dont know how to drive to get there, will need to get my permit next week lol. i am a city girl originally so thats why i havent learned how to drive. sorry i am afraid to give name on the internet, but i am sure the class size will be small and if i get in we will investigate and i will thank u in person for answering all these questions. in the meantime i guess u can call me abby.

wow, so the program looks like we cant have a job! i dont have a job now! i would like a part time at a hospital since i live in hackensack. what do u do at the hospital. any suggestion on what i can apply for or do? where can i search for a program? i am sad this school will start in May i need a break!!!!

[willyt7]

The clinicals are def in a hospital, so you mostly likely need a license and car asap. I work as a nurses aide and i think you should apply for the same. If your new to the health care field, it will def give you a step ahead of others. My union pays for a portion of schooling, so you should try and find a place that will pay as well. Im from NYC myself, so i dont know too much about Jersey and there hospitals. I would suggest to go to hospitals you know and look on there employment board on openings. They are always in need fo nurses aides or pca's so it shouldnt be a problem finding something.

LAST but IMPORTANT question:when does felician require a decision that you will attend their school?

[aspiring_nursing]

great! do u need any special license to be a nurses aide? lol, that should be a requirement! learn how to drive! i guess i will have to learn in 3 weeks or so...and have my mom drive me to these hospitals...or have my husband drive me i think he should be off fridays for a couple more months!! i really hope so! i hope felician is not as intense!
