FRCC Spring 2018

I applied too! I'm more worried I didn't complete my application properly.. haha Good luck to you as well!

Me too! I'm so nervous! Good luck to you! :)

Hey, I am also waiting to hear about Spring 2018 admission, check in my email constantly. Have either of you heard anything?!

I haven't yet. I hope we hear soon! Best of luck ladies!

I just heard back, I was accepted! Hope you all were as well

I just heard back! I couldn't contain my excitement!

Me too! Congratulations you guys! :)

Congrats to both of you!

Question, do either of you ladies plan to work during school? I currently work a part time morning job which probably won't work with the school schedule. I'm wondering what kind of jobs are nursing school friendly?

Thanks!

I expect I'll be meeting both of you at boot camp!

I work overnights as a QMAP caregiver in an AL facility. I usually have time to study and do homework during my shift. At the very least I'm able to watch educational YouTube videos while I'm doing my housekeeping tasks, and it really helps me understand the material.

I was going to drop down to PRN Saturday overnights only on January 1 so I can get my toddler on a better schedule because he's going to have to go to day care in the morning when we start. I can always pick up other shifts if I want to.

I also do taxes during tax season, but I'll probably only do that 4-6 hrs/week.

I'm looking forward to meeting you guys! :)

P.S. I live in Longmont, near Firestone. Does anyone live close by?

Thanks for the imput! I may look into overnight pcp I don't have any licenses but was hoping to find something that'll pay what I get now, which is $14 and it is slim pickings!

Sounds like you are a busy lady with school, a child and working! It's too bad they took down the longmont nursing program. I live in Fort Collins so luckily I have no commute

Yeah. The commute kinda sucks, but I'm hoping I can listen to lectures during my drive to make the most of my time. My QMAP license was $55. I don't know what they are now. I get paid $25/night to be on-call and $11.25/hr so it works out to about $14/hr. At least we can get our CNA license after 1st semester. It would be nice to have it under my belt so it's not all new, but I really didn't want to pay $900 when I can get it for free after we finish our first semester. I'm sure you will find something that works with your schedule. :)

I didn't know we can become a CNA after a semester! This is all very helpful! Thanks a bunch :) I knew you can become an LPN after two semesters which I plan on doing so I can get some experience. There's a good few months before our classes start so I'm sure I will find something!
