New UALR Students?

dontknowwhen · Mar 21, 2007

I just got my acceptance letter today also! I was accepted into the accelerated program but becauses of my scholarship had to change it to the traditional option.

So to get into the accelerated option, do you need to have already completed micro?

I also got accepted into the Traditional program, however I believe all prerequisites must be taken before you are considered for accelerated.

What is the dress attire during classroom lecture? I was just accepted into the Fall '07 program.

I just came back from the orientation at UALR, so I am able to reply to my own question. I will go ahead and answer my dress attire question for those who may need clarification. If you take classes at UALR, you can wear pretty much anything that you would normally to classes. If you take classes at St. Vincent's, you can't wear denim, shorts, or short skirts. I gotta go.

I wasn't aware that there was a Fall '07 program. UALR's nursing program now (beginning with this year) starts in the summer. I also was notified by mail, not phone when I was accepted...

I'm not trying to be rude, I promise, but I'll be a little ticked off if it was possible to start in the Fall and not Summer because I had to pay out of pocket for the summer session since my scholarship doesn't kick in till August...

Yeah, that one class is in summer, but all the other stuff starts in the fall. Sorry about the confusion. I had to test out of A&P, b/c they wouldn't take the one I took at UCA, so I was put on a waiting list b/c I didn't meet all of the requirements until later. There was an opening and they called me to ask if I would like to take it and I accepted. I'll be getting all information in the mail next week. :)

ok, that makes sense! I was wondering because I would have loved to take the summer off and start in the fall and would have been angry if I was misled.

Congrats!!!

Hey everyone,

I am starting my classes from fall at st. vincent oth for lectures and labs. Can anyone tell me about the dress attire that so we need to wear the uniforms on our lectures and labs everytime. My classes are on Monday Wednesday and Friday. Is anybody with this schedule If yes then lets know each other it would be great!!

Did you guys bought the 1805 syllabus?? I haven't yet.

Thanks guys

No, you are only required to wear your uniform when you go to clinicals and when you pick up your assignments. You cannot wear shorts or jeans at St. Vincent for your lectures though. Good luck to you! I'm starting my second year in the fall.
