I am new to this site and new to nursing - hopefully! I am applying to the LPN program at GL Tech evening division. Is anyone else here going or has gone to that program? I am taking the NET in June (the last test date) and I just ordered study materials. I have to pass it because it is the last time they offer it!!! I am 40yrs old and completely changing my career so I am hoping I am not the oldest in the program if I get in. So send out a hello if you are going to the program at Lowell Tech.
yea i havent gotten any information other than the financial aid stuff too and a reminder for the tuition down payment. i can't believe we only have about 2 months to go!!
I haven't gotten the packet yet either, but I was reading back in the old posts and it looked like they were talking about a uniform fitting around July? So I was curious if it was mandatory or not because I'll be in Vegas the first two weeks :)
first....you scared me - I thought I didnt get some info that you did!!! I think in July there is the scrub fitting and 4 nites of an orientation. I dont think either is mandatory (they werent last year) but you have to order the scrubs from a specific place (in Lowell) because they have to but the GLTech emblem on them. I wish we would know more too because I am trying to plan some "last hurrah" stuff and I dont want to miss any of the orientations.
Have fun in Vegas - 2 weeks wow - make sure to live it up cause its prob the last getaway for a while!!!! Maybe youll win enough $$$$ to pay for the tuition(or at least the books)!!
lady - I know I cant believe it either - I am mailing my tuition check today!!!!

Thank you! hahaha! I hope so, though were actually going to split the two weeks and road trip to possibly DC for the second week! Cant wait!
Ya hooooo All the day students from 3rd term have passed. Some didn't know until the very last day. Good luck to you all who are getting ready. I know they are starting to plan your arrival. This was the hardest thing I have ever done. As far as the fitting for uniforms, they do have a set day- but I ended up going to Heros after the day and still getting mine in time. Hope to see you all when we come in to talk about our year.
Ohh man I cant believe it is getting soo close now! Thanks for the update Gltech and congratulations on getting through the year!! I will be right where you are place soon enough :)
hello..its been too long too crazy i cant believe i still know my first name.....I graduated....thank the high heavens...i have done some seriously tough stuff in my life but this program was by far the hardest thing i think i have gone and will ever have gone through ever............. congrats to all that have been accepted for 2010-2011...the teachers are absolutely amazing....amazing.... I am getting all my paperwork together in gear for the NCLEX..i shall let you know how that works out... good luck everyone...its an amazing experience but dont be fooled be prepared to work your face off..................:)
Congratulations ladies!! I'm glad to hear such good things about the teachers/program etc. It just makes me want to fast forward to August already!! :redbeathe:yeah:
Congrats to the 2 of you!!!! I am getting so scared and nervous but excited at the same time! I just want to get some info already - I wish that we would get some info on books and supplies that we need so I can start buying them - I like to have time to be prepared!!
So did the majority of people pass - I think that GL has a pretty high percentage of passing. Any word on jobs for the graduates or do you have to wait until you pass the NCLEX? Have fun at graduation and be proud of yourselves - you deserve it!!!!
Yayyyyyyyy the informational packet came in the mail today!!! I was looking at the book list and found a lot of them online. Are we expected to buy the CDs that come with the books?? Anyways very excited to get this process started:D Congrats to the 2010 graduates:yeah:
