  1. Aspen university 3yr BSN

    @m.higgins5 not trying to be your doom and gloom, but if you are starting your last couple of pre-reqs in September, you most likely will not be in the muring core for November. Pre-reqs are 8 weeks in length and your courses need to be complete befo...
  2. Aspen university 3yr BSN

    @nmsanch I just started the last of my pre-reqs with them (health and disease). Then will be starting the their nursing core in November
  3. Nurses that “only do it for the money”

    I think it truly depends on the person!! It takes a lot just to get through school...so it’s not like someone just waltzes in and makes a decent salary; they have to put in the time and effort to ge there. I will be honest and say as a middle age nur...
  4. Maricopa CEP (Summer 2019 Start)

    I applied to CGCC this past round and did not get in...my rubric points were 83.7. Granted every round has different applicants, but CGCC has one of the lowest numbers of student placements (from what the advisor told me, they only had 32 seats in th...
  5. Aspen university 3yr BSN

    @nr0415I have yet to start...but have a few friends currently going there. Happy to relay any questions or insight your way ?
  6. Maricopa CEP (Summer 2019 Start)

    CGCC/GCU...86 points. Good luck to all!! Less than one week for acceptance letters to start going out!
  7. Maricopa CEP Fall 2018

    At least for block one, the schedule mostly ranges from 2-3 nights per week (5/5:30 to 9/9:30), then Saturday lab all day 8-4:30. Near the end of the semester when clinicals start, the lab day goes away and clinicals are either on Saturdays or Sunday...
  8. Current RN pay scale?

    Can't comment as I have no clue...but saw your name and am assuming you are from AZ?!?! I am currently in AZ hoping to move to Montana once I have completed nursing school :)
  9. Rio Salado HCR 240 Human Pathophysiology

    I took the course last summer...assuming things have not changed, you do not need the online access code. An older text will be just fine and for most of the work I used other previous course texts (A&P, micro,etc) for my references and citations...
  10. LPN vs. RN

    Arizona is a bit odd; unfortunately, there are huge waits for both on the plus side, of you get your LPN (two semesters) you can transition to a BSN within community colleges or universities with ease and finish the last two semesters.
  11. LPN vs. RN

    Where do you live? If you haven't already, you may want to look in to central Az college. It's in Coolidge, so it's out of the phx area, but if you live on the east side, it's closer than some of the west side options. And, they don't have a wait!!!
  12. LPN vs. RN

    I can see that you are in AZ, so you have some great options!! I am also in AZ, so I understand what you are going through. In my opinion, its all about timing and money. Yes, EVIT is expensive, but I have heard they have a great program and there is...
  13. Maricopa CEP wait time?

    I was just accepted and will be starting my blocks this fall. Although with each semester things are changing, 20 points seems to put you in a good spot for acceptance. This was the first time I had applied for CEP (but I have been on the traditional...
  14. UIU CEP (hybrid) questions

    Currently, the additional UIU pre-reqs are CIS 105, a public speaking course (COM 225 or 281), a social science course and an arts/humanities course. I would recommend checking out the CEP website. The requirements are listed in each schools brochure...
  15. HCR 240 prerequisite

    I took HCR 240 before completing micro...the pre-req for HCR 240 is EITHER Bio 202 or Bio 205, but not both. I was able to enroll easily in it, but I had to phone Rio to enroll so that they were able to confirm my transcripts were sent I took the pre...
  16. Currently in Arizona obtaining my BSN...but our long term goal is to move to Montana!!! I will be honest and say it will be atleast 5 years down the road. I will also say that I have not done a lot of research on the subject, but does anyone know how...
  17. Rio Salado HCR 240 Human Pathophysiology

    When I took it, everything was online...exams were not procured and were taken from the comfort of my own home. The course was writing extensive and in my opinion a lot of "busy work" essays.
  18. Maricopa CEP Fall 2018

    Once your background check has been completed through castlebrach, you will eventually receive more instructions on uploading all needed documentation into castlebrach.
  19. Rio Salado HCR 240 Human Pathophysiology

    You may also want to go and relook at the website...it appears that people from any county within Arizona actually pay the in county (maricop) tuition because of an reciprocity agreement. It is below the tuition chart next to the first asterisk. I am...
  20. Rio Salado HCR 240 Human Pathophysiology

    Cost is relative...although I am a maricopa resident, I have taken other courses online from other community colleges that were more costly because they fit into my schedule. For example, I ended up taking my BIO 182 and microbiology courses online t...
  21. Maricopa CEP Fall 2018

    I was accepted in to the Gateway Evening and FPU program!! Yay!!! As a side note, for anyone else accepted into the evening Gateway program, I started a Facebook page to allow us to communicate "Gateway RN Evening Cohort 2020"
  22. Moving to Montana in the very far future...

    Lol!!! What's not to love?!?! In all seriousness, why did you only last a year? Weather, middle of nowhere, weather :) both my husband and I have visited numerous times, have always lived in the west and want to stay on this side of the US and feel M...
  23. Maricopa CEP Fall 2018

    19 points; gateway evening and FPU. I was told they would start doing placements around February 26th...so Good Luck everyone!!!!
  24. CEP Fall 2018

    Starting this round of CEP applications, you can only "choose" one university on your CEP app...so you have to pick one. (You can still choose multiple maricopa options)
  25. CEP Fall 2018

    In addition to the above comments, you can do a lot while you wait. You could obtain you CNA and then get hands on knowledge, training and experience. I have been told Block 1 covers a lot of the same info, so it may give you a slight one up. You cou...
