Navarro ADN-RN program Fall 2012

Hi Everyone :)

Just wanted to start a thread for everyone that's applied to the Navarro College ADN-RN program starting Fall 2012.

Figured we needed a place to post, ask each other questions etc. while waiting on our acceptance letters..... I was told they won't be sent out until the end of May. Has anyone else heard otherwise?

I don't know if they registered me because I registered myself for the classes. I'd say they probably did. It also shows what days and times we'll be doing stuff, so that helps. :) I'm not sure what to expect for orientation day.

Hi everyone. Just wanted to give a quick update in regards to Financial Aid.

In an e-mail I sent this past Friday, I asked about the refund dates (along with the status of my own Financial Aid.) I recieved a reply today and was told that they have yet to determine the 2012-2013 refund dates. So, I know that does not answer many of our questions, but I figured I'd let everyone know who was curious about it that they are still trying to "figure things out."

I got that answer, now I have to e-mail them back since they failed to answer my other question. I swear, sometimes FA is so frustrating!

RaeAnn, it probably won't let you Pm kryssal until you've posted a minimum of 15 times. 7 more posts and you'll be able to.

MrsKennedy- I feel ya regarding how unorganized FA is!! I called the office today because I still don't have an award letter showing up in WebAdvisor and I applied 4/3/12... The lady I spoke with said that I had been selected for "review," I already knew that and I submitted the verification the day after I submitted my FA packet. In my WebAdvisor, it said "verification worksheet accepted 4/4/12" I told the lady this and she was like "oh well sometimes the computers have issues 'talking to eachother' and I'll write a note and hopefully it will be fixed sometime next week"

Ughhhhhhhh so frustrating ! ((this post has no info LOL it's just a "vent"))

[RaeAnn04]

Kryssal. Yes it is

Tim thanks I forgot! Lol

Got an Email today stating she registered my classes. :)))

Oh and found out a little more about our schedule... She said that for the first 6 weeks we will be going Monday through Friday. Then we would take a test to move on and we will break up into two groups. One group goes to clinicals Monday the other Tuesday. That is definitely diff than what's online but she says they r doing things a little diff bc there are so many of us. And there will be lots of bridge student next summer. I guess we will know for sure aug 1, but thought y'all might wanna know. :)

And she did say to hold off on buying books bc there are some we don't need.

Just a little FYI

[RaeAnn04]

Oh yeah and after the 6 weeks we will be off most Fridays.

Thank you RaeAnn on the heads up! I have been debating on whether I should go ahead and buy my books. I like the thought of not having to buy ALL of those books on the list:yeah:As for our uniforms, I spoke with a prior student and she said they did require you to purchase a lab coat and she got one off of E-bay pretty cheap.

[mrskennedy]

Wow thanks for the update RaeAnn! I have felt somewhat in the dark and am so ready for orientation in August. I'm definitely holding off to buy books until orientation, but I'm sure those that have already purchased all of the books will need them in the future.

I start Summer II July 16th, I'm taking the dreaded College Algebra, hopefully that will keep me busy enough that I don't drive myself crazy waiting.
