National University San Diego

[navyvetRNdreams2b]

Has anyone had any luck with applying at National University for their nursing program? I applied back in Oct 06 and have been waiting to hear from them. They are supposed to notify in 3 months. I have called and called and written email upon emails with no response really. Please, if anyone has applied and received some sort of letter, I would greatly appreciate your reply.

Thanks

And by the way, my NU advisor said:

"The orientation that was added to your schedule was to cover the Feb. 13, 2009 orientation that you attended. You will not be required to attend another orientation.”

Just in case you're all wondering!!

No, don't mind at all! I'm just disappointed that they don't have a better selection of colors... I would have preferred red, or green perhaps... something a bit more attractive... but the truth is, I need to value practicality over looks...i guess.

[gnomik79]

Oh, yes, thanks for the status on that email! I was wondering about that.... :)

Ashley, if you will be buying the Jansport off that link I gave you, don't forget to enter promo code winter09 to save 10%!

Ok so I was all set to order it today, went to the website and of COURSE... they sold out. Just my luck! What's funny is a girl in my CNA certification class has that same backpack so I checked it out today and it looks VERY nice. Seems very spacious and lots of room for books, laptop, etc. I found it on a different website... http://www.onlinefitness.com/product2326//style4580/?ref=cj ...Here it was 74.95 and since Inna and I bought ours together (i got black, she got brown) it then became free shipping. We also just googled something like "online fitness promo codes" and found one for 10% off jansport backpacks. So overall, we each paid about 74 dollars including tax. A bit more expensive but I think it's worth it. :)

Hey, that's great Ashley! My total with everything was like $69 and some cents, so what you found on the other website is only a couple of dollars more, but still an awesome deal! :) I'm glad you saw it in real life and that it looked nice, b/c I'm always afraid to be disappointed with online purchases. That's funny, we'll all have the same backpacks.... :):):) I think they will serve us well...

[gnomik79]

Hahaha! I bet you it was sold out because other students on this forum went and ordered it using that link.... :):) LOL! It would be hilarious if we all show up the first day of class and like 15 other students have the same backpack.... I am seriously thinking of ebroidering mine... LOL ... No, seriously....

[prettyinpink57]

NO WAY! Inna and I were talking today about doing that too! How funny!!!

Or maybe I'll put a pink flower or bow on mine....:hehe:

[gnomik79]

I know... something has to be done... this is preposterous!... :) We'll all look like clones::smackingf same uniforms, same backpacks, same scopes, and all in white shoes! I think Janson (as well as those websites we used) owe us some $$ for free advertising! :) Also, I now firmly believe that local embroidery companies' revenues are just about to increase... So, all in all, I think we are stimulating the economy pretty well with our consumer spending, don't you think?

[gnomik79]

I meant to say JanSport, not Janson.... :smackingf:lol_hitti I have no idea where Janson came from.... honestly... :chuckle

[prettyinpink57]

Haha, I figured that's what you meant! And I agree with everything you said! I forgot to ask you, what are you doing about a PDA? I don't have one and I am horrible with technology but would like to get one. Know anything about where to get one??:):)

[gnomik79]

I've looked into the PDA's. Good one's are pricey... around $200. I am thinking... maybe it would be cheaper for me to get a blackberry... Didn't she say that blackberries should work? Or am I just imagining that?
