   jhug replied to Bubbles1121's topic in School Programs

   Congratulations on getting into the Nursing program! Unfortunately, they changed the whole curriculum starting with the class behind us (those who started Fall 2016 and will graduate Spring 2018). So there is no way for any of us to really know how...

2. New Grad: Moving When Husband Gets Orders

   jhug replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Nurse Beth

   Given that it's a military transfer situation, they may be willing to waive the fee at that time (with documentation), but obviously you can't count on that ahead of time. Alternately, if you do explain your situation, they may be willing to hire yo...

3. Thinking About Plan B? - Nurses in Business

   jhug replied to Michelle Podlesni's topic in Entrepreneurs

   I got a Bachelor's in business back in 2014 after an Associates in accounting in 2011, and let me assure you that Nursing school is much, MUCH harder by far! If you are wondering about heading down this path I would encourage you to take a class in ...

   I'm just renting the Pharmacology book for Fall until I find out what our professor on the Collier campus will be using. This way I have the book ahead of time and if it turns out we need software access I'm sure it can be purchased separately. I'v...

5. Thinking About Changing My Career Path - Should I become an RN and wait to have children?

   jhug replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Nurse Beth

   Absolutely do school first!!! I'm in Nursing school now, Associate level ASN-RN no less, and it is by far the hardest thing I've ever done academically, and this will be my 3rd degree. Previous Bachelors don't even compare. However hard you've hea...

6. working nurses that started late in life

   jhug replied to momt5's topic in General Nursing

   Mindfulone1 - There is no hard and fast rule that says you have to put graduation years on your resume. Just list your school(s) and the degree(s) you received (and GPA if brag-worthy). If and when an employer needs to know the year you graduated f...

7. Alzheimer's Attack: Coping as Family & Nurse

   jhug replied to jeastridge's topic in Parish

   Having come across this article recently I wanted to pass it along. The potential treatment is probably still several years off, but it's something to keep track of, especially if your loved one is still in the early stages. At least there is a small...

   For Collier campus we received the following email from Prof. Arcidiacono. On the first day of the semester, Jan 7th, I would assume you go to your Thursday class at the room number listed in your class schedule, regardless of which campus you're at...

   That form has to be filled out and signed by a qualified hc provider. If you are not immune to something you need to get the required vaccine(s) for it ASAP. Contact your doctor's office and let them know you need to have that done. I had to get a...

    I ordered one set of scrubs and a polo from Sew Shore in Naples, and just picked up another polo from the bookstore. I want to order at least 1 more set of scrubs too. Other than that, I mostly just need to buy shoes and find some good khakis that ...

    I purchased my clothing at Sew Shore in Naples: 3845 Beck Blvd #809 / Phone:(239) 774-4655 Beck Blvd is what Davis Blvd becomes on the east side of 951...so it is very near the Collier campus. They also give a small discount on merchandise for tho...

    Unfortunately I don't know how Bright Futures works. It's always best to check with financial aid if you're not sure how something like that works. If you don't have time to go in and meet with someone, you can send them an email. They're pretty g...

    No, you're fine so long as you are approved for financial aid in the Spring, and you've gone in and "accepted" it under the Accept Award Offer tab. If you (or anyone else) need help finding that, let me know and I'll list the steps.
