Accepted at Bridgeport Hospital

NurseKeiKei · Mar 5, 2008

oh okay. Well our paths will cross one day. I wish classes started in June. I am so ready to stop working and begin classes. Ugh 6 months. Can I just go to sleep and wake up and it be September? Wait did I really just ask to go into a 6 month coma. LOL.

Hey future nurses, congratulations. I will be starting at Bridgeport in the fall too. I am considering moving into the area or boarding at the school. Does anyone know anything about the housing they provide or interested in finding a roommate?

NurseKeiKei · Mar 14, 2008

Hi. No I dont know very much about the housing. I may need a roommate in September. Email me with your information and I will keep you posted.

I might be interested in having a roomate next year when my son goes to my mom. I live in a huge 2 bedroom apt in Ansonia but I think I might want to move to the black rock area in Bridgeport. Im only 15 minutes from school right now, but my lease ends in December. It will be too expensive for me when I stop working. Where are you going to move from ob la de ob la da? Where are you located Futurenursey? ob la de ob la da did you choose the evening or the day program?

Future Nursey...

Did you get your orientation date yet? Mine is July 10th at 3pm. Im taking Anatomy and Physiology I at HCC right now. Its soooo crazy! I go to school from Monday thru Thursday from 330pm to 8pm and its only 5 weeks long. Wish me luck!! Im taking Anatomy II during the second 5 week period. So I will be done with atleast the anatomy courses by the end of the summer and I'll only have to take Microbiology during nursing school. Do you know if you got accepted into the day program or not? Did you get your financial aid award paperwork? I sent an email to your hotmail account, im not sure if you got it or not...

Hey NurseK,

I was accepted into the day program but I am in the process of making a request for the evening program. My employer was supposed to pay for my tuition but a delay has forced me to assume the cost for the first semester. Im pretty upset that I didnt have the forsight to choose the evening program when I had the chance. As of right now I am going to be placed on a waiting list for the evening program but if space does not permit that accommodation, I may have to go with Norwalk's program in the spring, which I was also accepted to. With all that said, I am expecting to attend the Orientation next month. Did you get your first bill?

2bNURSEKENIA · Jun 11, 2008

I just got my bill for 2300. I didn't finish my financial aid paperwork yet either. Im sending my 1040 over today. Hopefully its not too late. Thats unfortunate that you were hit with that unforseen circumstance. Well, if you get into the evening program, you will be in my class... So lets cross our fingers. Would you rather attend BHSON or Norwalk?

NurseKeiKei · Jun 11, 2008

I would really prefer BHSON. I find that program to be much more hands on from the very beginning. However I have heard so many great things from several people about both programs that at this point I just want to start somewhere. Thankfully I applied to Norwalk as a back up. Hopefully we will be classmates.
