2. How many weeks are clinicals usually

   KaTStudentNurse replied to Enoch82's topic in School, College Programs

   I'm not trying to sound cold hearted, but is there any chance you could reschedule the honeymoon after 1 st semester has ended? There's your break right there and you wouldn't have to be worried about...

   KaTStudentNurse replied to KaTStudentNurse's topic in General Students

   Actually my school has this "board post" for future students and present students to speak with one another and asks questions and such. Many on there are selling text books but I've notice their book...

   KaTStudentNurse replied to KaTStudentNurse's topic in General Students

   Haha, actually they do require a specific laptop which, fortunately, I already purchased months ago for $250 after receiving %50 off for it since it is sponsored with my

   KaTStudentNurse replied to Mataylie's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

   My school let some people in with some criminal backgrounds but ultimately it's up to the clinical site on whether they want to accept these

8. Will I be able to do clinicals with a 7 year old misdemeanor?

   KaTStudentNurse replied to Mataylie's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

9. Will becoming a CNA help me get in to nursing school?

   KaTStudentNurse replied to alison86786's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

10. Am I Out of Luck?

    KaTStudentNurse replied to peachshan's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    KaTStudentNurse replied to BlueBoxSearcher's topic in School, College Programs

    Yeah, having 50,000 in student loan is obviously hard to swallow but it is still very common and people do get through. All my friends in college will be at least 30k in debt because nursing school is...

    KaTStudentNurse replied to BlueBoxSearcher's topic in School, College Programs

    I may be the minority here, but I think going in some debt for a stable career is not the worst thing in the world. U.S higher education is not cheap but yet in this day and age going to college and...
