LSU CARE 2017

Published

I am in the process of applying to the LSU CARE program (2017). This may seem silly, but I just want to confirm... The HESI isn't necessary for this program, right? I already emailed the appropriate person with this question, and was told to "look over the admission criteria page "very carefully"... No "yes" or "no" answer. I need to confirm to alleviate some of my anxiety!

Thanks:)

Thank you so much!!! Thats really helpful! I hope it works out for us waitlisters, like it did for the people you know. I think letters have gone out, it seems like they emailed most people. I would try calling the office monday and seeing if they had the wrong email or something.

Hi! It's so great to hear from a current CARE student! I was looking at y'all's block I schedule from last semester. How is it that physiology labs are scheduled for Tues/Thurs at 1-5pm but abnormal psych is Thursday 1-4pm? Also, do your or people in your class currently work at all? Thanks for your help!

We didn't have phys lab. From what I understand from previous years, if you were in psych you had phys lab on Tuesday and everyone else had Thursday. But we didn't have phys lab at all. Some people work/worked. I have two kids, so no way I could work. You could probably swing it during the first block, but it would be hard during the second block, especially once you have foundations/clinicals/pharm/patho. It's a lot to juggle when you're in clinicals. But again, this is coming from someone with two kids, so my study time is a little more limited than most people.

Oh okay! Is that what happened when you were taking foundations/pharm/patho? I see that foundations is 8am-4pm on Thursdays which overlaps with pharm and patho. Thanks again!

The foundations happening on Thurs may be the traditional class. We only had foundations on mon/fri, with clinicals tues/wed. The calendar has the CARE schedule and the traditional schedule on it.

I am on the alternate list for the CARE 2019 program. I am trying to stay hopeful. Anyone that got in previously can you tell me how many people are generally called from the alternate list. Apparently, I am really high on the list so my fingers are crossed.

NGOrtiz my friend was on the alternate list and she was called the week we started school. She is actually graduating next month. So there is a chance they will call you. it was 3 people for sure that were alternates and were called the week we started.
