   Hi wishinguponastar! I don't know how long it will take to get your acceptance letter, but the night classes never fill up. You should be fine!

   I also bought a lanyard for my name badge so that I wouldn't lose it. When I went to clinicals, I was told that I could not wear the lanyard. So you may want to consider that before you purchase one.

   Yes they have the accreditation of the COE! The same accreditation that hair salon schools have! LOL If you go to the COE website, you can see what type of schools are accredited by them. The bottom line is that Galen is working to improve their pr...

   Still selling the future accreditation! I was really not impressed with Galen at all! I still can't figure out why the tuition is so high. I am getting ready to move the the Miami/Hollywood, Fl area. I might look for a school there eventually!

   I attended Galen college for one week and one day. I was not impressed! Yesterday we had major flooding going on in the Louisville area and people had to keep leaving class to move their cars, because they had water up past the tires, but they didn...

6. *BBFRN* Galen College question

   slmcdo05 replied to krltdy's topic in Kentucky

   Hi BBFRN! That makes sense to me. I have heard that during our pedicatric and delivery clinicals, we will be very limited to what we can do, hands-on. I guess that the hospitals have to be careful when it comes to children and babies. Enjoy the ...

   Hi Jsadler! I actually live in Sellersburg, so the location is great for me. My husband has his clinicals in Louisville, near Fern Valley Rd. So he has more travel time than me. They have a new rule that couples cannot go to clinicals together an...

   slmcdo05 replied to krltdy's topic in Kentucky

   Thanks BBFRN! I have been really excited about getting started and I still am, but now I am a little concerned. We just found out our clinical sites today and I got the site that one of the current students told me was horrible, scary and nasty; on ...

    Hi everyone! I just went to orientation and for the first quarter, we have clinicals on Thursdays. I don't know about future quarters though. Hi BBFRN, how are you doing?

    Hi Jsadler! I don't know the exact details, but my husband owed $1500 and he was told to pay it all by July 15th, so we paid it by check yesterday at orientation. Later, the head of the financial aid department mentioned that they had a monthly pay...

    Hi again Jsadler827! Yes, you have to have records of 2 MMR immunizations and 2 Varicella immunizations. These are immunizations that we get when we are children, but if you don't have your records, you can get the shots again. We lost our records...

    Hi again JSadler! Well the physical will be something that probably has to be maintained yearly or something. Once you get your acceptance letter, then you make your financial aid appointment to make sure student loans and grants will cover everyth...

    Hey Jsalder827! Yeah, it's alot of waiting, but once you get your acceptance letter, you'll be busy taking care of everything that you'll have to do. Especially all of the medical paperwork. Like I mentioned before, do yourself a favor and make su...
