Hello everyone I hope you are enjoying the program. I’m considering applying but I was wondering how long you are on campus. Is it M-F 8-3 like most programs? I don’t know if I could make it work...

Can you DM me the schedule as well if you find it. That is really helpful. My dream is to work in the NICU so while it is super understandable hospitals don’t really want student nurses dealing...

Bump. Also considering Concordia because the hybrid program is beetter for me as a mom. Don’t mind the religious aspect since I am Christian. I do care about clinicals... is the peds rotation at a...
Wow your school has pharm as a pre req? That’s interesting all the programs out here have you take pharm in the program. I agree with everyone else. Split up pharm and
How did you get A’s in your science classes? Im very good with english, psychology, history, etc. Math and science have never been my strong suit even though I do find science interesting. I feel...
Wow you did great!! I just read an article a few days ago that discussed sleep. I’m trying to prioritize it more. The article said most moms don’t remember their child’s first year and it’s...
A lot of student nurses keep telling me that strong A&P can make patho easier. So I’m definitely trying to take A&P solo and pull A’s in those classes. I will definitely take my sciences...
Thank you for your input! My school is requiring organic chem as a pre req I’m scared !! But I think it will help later on maybe with A&P? I want to make the best grades I can but I agree it...
I’m taking your advice!! I’m working on my math courses now and I will do chem after I build my skills up. Then the rest of my sciences! You sound like a great mom and I know you will be a great...

It’s a sad day when a security guard gets fired for restraining a violent patient. What are they there for? To just “look” like they will do something when they actually aren’t allowed to do...
Thank you! Since you have clinical 2 days are they 8 hours long? Making 4 days work seems easier than 5. My husband would arrange his days off to be during the week when I have class and I guess I...
Wow thanks for all the info. I wasn’t going to volunteer but now I will when I’m done with my pre reqs. It’s really hard carving out time right now just to do one science class a term. So once...
Interested to see how you guys are liking the program? Also what is the schedule like? Any classes online? I’m a mom and really considering Linfield when I’m done with my pre reqs.
Ok I’m not a nurse yet just working on my pre reqs for school now and I want to give you some perspective from a moms point of view. If you want to be a mom now go for it! Especially if you still...
Thank you! I just talked to my financial aid office and they told me I won't qualify unless I take at least 6 credits every term. Some of the science courses are 5. Sigh. It looks like taking my...
I noticed a lot of new grads feel overwhelmed in med surg. This seems to also be where most new grads get hired on first and have high patient loads. Do you think being a CNA would help in this...
Thank you! I will look into the notability app I have an IPad too. I was thinking about buying a little recorder to record all the lectures. Some people said that really helped. But if my iPad will do...
Thank you for all this! You sound like a really good student. I actually own a whiteboard so I will definitely use it. Thank you for the resources I’m going to subscribe to Armando and the crash...
Did you take statistics and if so did you find that course hard? You think I could get away with taking it with my English course or a humanities elective? Did you find microbiology harder than your...
I’m kind of in your same position but only have one child (hoping to have 2 by the time I start nursing school) and I’m barely starting my pre reqs this summer. I feel like you might be able to...
I like your perspective. I’m Christian and I want to do something for a job where I give back. I want meaningful work. That’s part of what draws me to nursing over computer science. I feel like...
