I heard that at TCC, you can do a full year of pre-reqs and still not get accepted into the nursing program. I just don't have time like that to waste and I can't take the chance of going to school...
Thanks for the info. TCC is too hard to get into and right now I just want to go for LPN and with them it will take me 2 years. I also don't like the admission office there. They were really rude...
Anyone used them to help pay for your nursing or medical assistant education? I am trying to find out what their income requirements are. They won't tell me over the phone and require me to come...
I got this off of a median wage site, and I looked in my local paper and they aren't paying as much as a MA "The lowest-paid phlebotomists in the US work in Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Texas...
did she say why she hasn't found a job? I was considering Community Care College for the MA program because a lady at TCC said it was the closest to their program out there. Are there not enought MA...
Yeah, I got a good guy, it's just that my education isn't highest on the list around here when we are living paycheck to paycheck. I think he would be happier with me brining in something now versus...
I live in Oklahoma and am considering becoming an RN. There is a college here (Platt) that offers a 1 year LPN and a 1 year LPN to RN course. How many hospitals are likely to hire an RN without a BSN?...
Anyone graduate from here? They have a 2 year RN program. Are the credits transferrable if I decided at a later date to get my BSN? I asked the lady on the phone but she has me more confused than...
I sent an email to the HR nurses at both Hillcrest and saint francis. Both wrote back and told me that they hire nurses from Platt college all the time...Interesting..Not sure what to think now...
It stinks, but I can't drive more than 20 minutes because of my schedule and because of my husbands job (long freaking story!)...You would think with the shortage of nurses that more colleges would...
Thanks for the info. I can't believe how hard it is to get into these programs. I am thinking I may just give up. My husband agreed to watch the kids for a year in the evenings, but not for 3...
This is what I found out about Platt: The educational objective of the degree program is to provide the student with a thorough understanding of nursing science and to prepare the student for success...
It was my understanding that they go by your household income. My husband makes like $50,000 a year...Not that I see any of that personally as he pays all the bills and has little left over. It...
I found the staff at TCC incredibly UNHELPFUL. By the time I got done making 5 calls to them I was so discouraged and actually thinking I shouldn't even be a nurse if I can't understand what courses...
I don't know exactly what to do. I might just have to go get a CMA after 10 months so I can work my way throught the rest of college. I am only eligible for $6600 financial aid and no other money...
Hey there, I know this thread is very old but wondered how you all are doing now? I am 32 and looking into going to TCC to be an RN. I have no 'real' college experience and absolutely stink at...
