1. Portage Learning in Metro Atlanta

   I believe they do. SL is not associated with any college. Portage is, and your transcript will say "Geneva College". Check with them though to be sure.

2. Do CRNA schools accept degrees earned through competency based programs?

   jlmcgrot replied to imblest11's topic in SRNA

   From what you're describing, it sounds like this structure might be the opposite of what you need. Much better to take one or two courses at a time and be done in a year, than to pay for 6 months and find out you aren't able to complete everything d...

3. Ga Highlands Nursing Program 2021 Fall

   jlmcgrot replied to Nechk's topic in School Programs

   Here are some "old" samples of the sheet. I think these are before the TEAS was updated and I'm sure there have been other changes. It may give you an idea though. Sample worksheets

4. Bjorn Hall Stethoscopes?

   jlmcgrot replied to AngusBeef's topic in Uniform/Gear

   It looks nice, but... Is grabbing neck hairs really a problem? Seems to be an issue she made up to differentiate the stethoscope. I've had matte finish stethoscopes slide off my neck, so a little stickiness might be a good thing. MDF...

   jlmcgrot replied to Nechk's topic in School Programs

   Yeah, it was 4/1. They had to make some exceptions for the TEAS and CNA license because of covid closures, but that shouldn't be an issue this year. They typically mail a packet also, but we received email acceptance letters just due to impact th...

   Last year we got them mid-June, but it was a different year with Covid and all. Not sure if it will be the same this year. Good Luck!

7. PORTAGE LEARNING

   jlmcgrot replied to Kcometh's topic in School Programs

   What kind of support were you expecting that you aren't getting? It's a completely online class at your own pace that you have a year to do. If you need a lot of 1:1 time with a professor, then a live class is the way to go. They answered emails f...

   jlmcgrot replied to Surgtech97's topic in School Programs

   I would think that if you've made it this far into the ASN admissions process, you'd have a pretty good chance of getting into the LPN program. Who Knows? Maybe more RN candidates than normal are opting for LPN as a backup this year due to reduced...

   good luck with that...that stuff is basically benadryl and would make me groggy during a test where I had to critically think...I'd pass...LOL

    jlmcgrot replied to Surgtech97's topic in School Programs

    What did the update you received say? I got one that said the deadline was 2:00 pm, because I had not registered, however, there were 86 recipients, all of which I assumed were the ones that had not yet registered. There were probably 100+ more that...

    jlmcgrot replied to Surgtech97's topic in School Programs

    Has anyone gotten any feedback with how the classes are going to be structured with COVID, or how they were structured in the Spring when it hit? Some schools are moving to a primarily zoom/online structure, and I'm not a big fan of that.

    I hope you get in, but I think CTC is even more competitive, especially this year. They've said only 40, with closer to 400 applications. The closer you get to Atlanta, the more competitive it will get, just due to the number of applicants.

    jlmcgrot replied to Surgtech97's topic in School Programs

    I got the email invite for the CTE, but it's doubtful I'll take it since I've been accepted elsewhere. That should clear up a spot (I had an 85 on the TEAS and A's in all the science prereqs as well as the extra classes like psych and sociology and...

    jlmcgrot replied to Surgtech97's topic in School Programs

    Has anyone gotten the CTE invite yet? They are cutting it close. Maybe CTC does not have all the requirements of some other schools as far as vaccines, physicals, TB test, certifications, etc... Trying to get all that done in such a short window is...

    jlmcgrot replied to Kcometh's topic in School Programs

    Then make a list of schools you want to attend and check their equivalency transfer system. If it's not there, have a conversation with someone in the registrar's office. It's on you, because as I've mentioned earlier, even schools say they accept ...
