Yeah!! I will see you there then. I called and spoke with Ms. MacWilliams? yesterday and set up an appointment to meet with her on the 9th of January for orientation for the classes on the 23rd, it is during the day 3 times a week, but then we have 2 "online" days which is perfect, so I will see you in class, I am so thrilled to be going back to school! My name is Nina, so I hope to see you there.

Hello, Yes, I just contacted McFatter and am going to meet with them in January to start then. The rep did mention some additional costs, but even if it goes up to 700, it will save me over 1000 and I can go into the LPN program right afterwards in March. 1800 was just way too much, the LPN program at McFatter starts a bit over 3000!. Wishing you all the best as well, maybe we will run across each other in a nursing home down this way after school! I am getting out of the transcription field to go into nursing, after many years, so really looking forward to the change, only have to get over needles, but I have spoken with several RNs who said that it will happen and become second nature.

I went to a training center in the South Florida area today to meet with a representative to begin the CNA program in January, super excited but here is the kicker...the price quoted was 1,800 for a 9 week course (5 days a week)! Seems steep to me because when I initially contacted the school, I am quite certain I was told the classes were 4 weeks and the cost was 800. They do have a great interest free payment plan over 12 months which makes it really affordable and I do plan on beginning an LPN program at the end of March, so it is perfect timing. My question; is this a comparable price? Also, I have to pay 70 for the textbook Thanks for the replies!
