Fort Morgan Community College-Long Drive

that is one looooooong drive. is relocating not an option? driving 92 miles X2 is gonna be exhausting. you will be soooooo tired to concentrate on your notes. factor in the gas price too. good luck. have some really nice music to play while you are on the road.

Hi Studentnurse3,

I was wondering what book you used for the enterance HESI at Morgan Community Collge because I was thinking of applying this year 2014 but I was also not excited about the long drive but I dont have much options of either (private school or community college) and I don't want to pay all that $$$.

Also how did you do on the HESI?

I say you should move closer to Fort Morgan if at all possible. I believe there is housing in that area that is more affordable than Denver area. I think this could be a dangerous situation because I know clinicals are also in Fort Morgan. It is a good school and the local hospital hires the graduates too. I have known of students or employees with long commutes who get a spot to stay the night for those long days or bad weather. Think of this, you may have to go to the hospital in the afternoon to get the information about your patients, then go home and study about the diagnosis, care of the patient and medications. I was sometimes up until 2:00 AM doing that. Sometimes you might have to be at clinical at 06:00 AM. I don't know, you could call the school and talk to the nursing department about what their schedule is like.

Did you end up making this drive and going to this program? If I get in the LPN program, I will have to drive 82 miles one way so I am debating that. Would you recommend it?
