Pre-Nursing Background

[dedicated2Help]

Well I'm one year away from transferring out and have been working FT and going to school FT. My work was never affected and I got good recognition until my new boss, who is about n

My age began to harass me about work, with nothing solid to base it on, when i asked her. but Because I was a temporary employee I was told she didn't have to deal with me period, what she said supersedes what I say ( O_O) I've since been diagnosed with anxiety and asked to see a psychologist, I was so devastated and had a panic attack. now I fear that this will affect my application to any college. ; ( to top things off, I was laid off before I could turn in my medical leave documents. Any advice? I feel like what I have been working so hard is slipping off my control ;(

What does this person's opinion have to do with your application to the college? I ask because it doesn't appear that she has any say in what college you go to or the application process... unless I read wrong somewhere.

I was told that your Medical background affects your acceptance in any college. Would then this be one of those things that can disqualify me?

How will they know your medical background? I don't think they can ask for your medical records.

I'm just afraid that I will be judged if I have to file for some type of disability. This can come up from just typical questions, normally found on applications.

I have never heard of a college discriminating against a person because of their disability. In fact I'm pretty sure it's illegal. Most colleges will even make it easier for you if you have needs that need to be met. As for something like getting into nursing school, I have never been asked about my own personal medical background the only thing that I know may happen is the school asking for your shot record and basic medical clearance to do clinical at the hospital.

Thank you! That answered my question, and as far as my physical health is concerned I'm physically healthy and a very hard worker. Whew!
