   If it's true what you said, then I'm kicking myself for not taking Micro at PCC last semester. I know that PCC only offers a 4-unit Micro, so I drove all the way down to El Camino College to take their 5-unit Micro, which according to assist.org was...

   @BeachBedHead - if you consider a 15-mile drive from Citrus College to PCC "down the street" then CSULA is in my back yard! LOL... I was told that the kind of statistics class required by CSULA's SON is not the typical statistics course offered by ...

   Orientations to the school of nursing are given the summer before the school starts taking applications. At that time you will be given ALL the information you need to enter the program. You must schedule the orientation by calling the advisement o...

   Oh, there was one thing I did find interesting at CSULA. As I was walking past the Bookstore and the Kennedy building by the courtyard, there was a banner about a "Cinco de Mayo" celebration on Friday, May 6. From the looks of it, there may be some...

    @ckim - thanks for the compliment. I thought about taking Life-Span Psych in the summer as well, but then I realized I'd have a lot more fun by getting that out of the way now and have the entire summer off before the real grind starts in the Fal...

    I just got word from ---- at the Advisement Office that the letters of acceptance will go out next week. That's really cutting it close to the enrollment confirmation deadline of May 2nd. Anyway, wait another week :-(

    Thank you, TJ Vladin for that useful clarification. Regarding your question on BSN vs ADN it all depends on your goals. Do you want to make bed-side care a life-long career? If so, then ADN is the way to go. It is way cheaper and less competitive...
