I would check Rio Salado, it's an online community college in AZ that transfers right to ASU.

Hey everyone, I recently saw on AZBON that Chandler-Gilbert's program is on probation. Wow. I'm nervous because this is the location I'll be applying to after next semester. I have really liked the school so far and was surprised to hear bad things a...

Hi everyone, I'm in A&P right now and we have our first lab practical coming up, and it's on histology. We have to distinguish between simple squamous epithelial, stratified cuboidal, etc. and the pictures in my book and on the PP look different ...

Hi everyone, I won't be applying until after fall semester but I had a quick question. So basically you all had your class requirements done by last semester (fall 2017) and had to "sit out" a semester in between and then hopefully start in the fall ...

Thank you so much for the amazing links, you're awesome :)

Thanks for your response, and no worries, my lab practical is not until Feb. 7th :) Our class begged my professor to show us images instead of use the microscope and surprisingly he agreed, so I'm not as worried now! I will try your flashcard idea, t...

Thank you so much for your help! I agree, histology is incredibly boring to me, hopefully I enjoy the other chapters more!

Thanks for your comment I'm glad I'm not the only one struggling lol! Our instructor also told us he probably wouldn't test us on simple squamous just because it's flat and hard to see. I've only had 2 lab sessions so far, I'm just used to getting su...

Thank you, this was helpful! I have trouble locating the basement membrane though - is it the darker area around the bottom of the slide? I was looking for the square shape around the nucleus not at the actual nucleus itself.

Maybe I'm not properly focusing the microscope? I don't really see enough detail to see the square shape of cuboidal or the shape of columnar. I have looked on the web but it doesn't really look that similar to the slides I used in class, and our sli...

I'm pretty sure they have been bought by them for a while - they are the same people that run DeVry, which is why general classes run through them. So I doubt that anything will be changing :)

Agree totally with Trauma. I highly recommend a community college program. It will be pretty rough taking out a loan for school and paying it back while you get closer to retirement and need money saved up for that and will have no income.

Well, nobody knows anything about who you are as a person or how you handle stress. I and nobody else here has any idea if you would make a good nurse. But anatomy and physiology is a really important class and you will need to know that information ...

I think only you can answer that for yourself. I would try to become a CNA first because you will deal with a lot of "ick" that way, and build a tolerance. You will constantly deal with poop, vomit, and stress so make sure you can tolerate these thin...

The new point system is scary! I have been looking all over the site to see if anyone has posted their score. I graduated high school this year so I don't have the advantage of a previous degree for an extra two points. I worked really hard to get a ...

Yeah definitely! My school has the regular wait list for an associates degree, and the concurrent program is based on your GPA and entrance exam score so there isn't a wait list for that, and it's the cheapest option for your bachelors. I myself hate...

If you mean Grand Canyon, I have heard of people with a 3.5 being accepted so I wouldn't worry too much, your GPA is great. I was planning on applying but they don't accept transfer students anymore Because of that, your chances are probably higher ...

Hey, never give up! I believe in you! If anything, your personal experience with sickness and how you overcame it to become a nurse will be an amazing story to tell at interviews and it shows the extent of your strength and determination. I graduate...

Hi there! I just graduated high school and I'm in my first semester of community college in Arizona. I pay about $4,000 a year and I believe it is not that much more expensive for out of state students in my state so you might want to look into Maric...

I think there would have to be other parameters because like you said, so many people could have the same score. A lot of people will get the same points for GPA at the very least. And with the old rubric I saw a lot of people saying they never discl...

Hey guys, I just saw someone posted that Maricopa has changed the grading rubric for the CEP. It seems like HESI scores matter more than ever (but thank the Lord English scores more points than math ) and that GPA is more lenient (you get the same nu...

I'm only applying for the regular program this semester but hopefully will apply for the concurrent program after summer. How do you feel about the new admissions rubric? And sending lots of luck your way!

I was counting on getting a high GPA to kind of "ensure" a spot for CEP but everyone with a high GPA (3.68-4.0) gets the same points. I assumed the old one was more focused on GPA (3.8 gets in over 3.7) I'm not really a fan of grouping the GPA togeth...

Wow say it isn't so! That would suck because I know a lot of people have already been waiting for ages. Kind of takes away the point of CEP if you're stuck based on who came first anyways. Especially with this rubric where a lot of people could poten...

I will be applying for the traditional program after the upcoming spring semester and finishing CEP classes during summer. I am already freaking out though! This new rubric scares me honestly. I'm very nervous taking huge tests so I was kinda hoping ...
