Other threads about Resu applications had a lot of questions for me and other students about the program that are more personal, not technical, such as what it's like, the difficulty, etc. Rather than derail an existing thread and going off topic, I started this thread so you can ask me your questions.I just started at Resu in the daytime BSN in fall 2012. I love it! It's a lot of work but so far it's about what I expected. Please keep in mind I won't have all the answers right now because I just started my program, but over time hopefully I can help you even more.So let's keep this conversation going with your questions or concerns, and hopefully another present or past student will drop in as well!
So happy to see someone who is currently in the program on this post! I am looking to start the summer '17 program and have a couple questions.
1- I am curious on location and experience in clinicals. I know everything is through Presence but do you find yourself in more hospitals or nursing homes?
2- Has your experience so far been good? Are professors helpful? And are the ATI tests extremely difficult?
Lastly, have you been able to get scholarships or grants from the school to help with cost?
Thank you in advance!

Clinicals have been good so far, I haven't been in one nursing home in 5 clinical placements so far. Obviously some hospitals are better than others you just have to make the best of your placement. Peds clinical was at Luries so that was a great experience.
My experience has been good and I've found the professors helpful when I've had questions. The ATI tests are tough, definitely make sure you start studying for them early.
They offer a variety of internal scholarships, hopefully you qualify for them and get some money.

Thank you!!
Can you describe to me how it is? Do you feel like you are learning or you are just being thrown so much information there is no time to learn it all?
Sorry for all of the questions:/ I am just trying to compare it to my old nursing program!
Thank you!
