  1. Need your advice...BSN vs. BS????

    Melcia060 replied to Melcia060's topic in Nursing Career

    Thanks for the post!! The MSN program I want doesn't care what your undergrad degree is in as long as you are an RN. I'm attending a diploma RN program starting in the fall and I'm hoping to work on...

    Melcia060 replied to LanaBanana's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Melcia060 replied to LanaBanana's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Melcia060 replied to LanaBanana's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Hi Amy, If you want to PM me your e-mail address I can try to send photocopies of the lab material. I can't find a way to attach files on here, so I think I'd need a regular e-mail. I don't know...

  6. Edukan A&P2 summer session 3!!!

    Melcia060 replied to LanaBanana's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Melcia060 replied to LanaBanana's topic in Online Distance Learning

  11. Has anyone gotten into nursing school without taking pre-reqs/pre-nursing first?

    Melcia060 replied to manofbess's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Woogy, Even though my school doesn't require A&P and Micro to be done, I will have completed them before the nursing classes start. I took A&PI last semester, just finished Micro yesterday,...

  12. Has anyone gotten into nursing school without taking pre-reqs/pre-nursing first?

    Melcia060 replied to manofbess's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    "Even the most lenient of RN schools won't let you start nursing classes until you have taken anatomy. They'll let you take physiology and microbiology along with nursing as long as you finish...

    Melcia060 replied to lc3's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  16. Are application fees the norm?

    Melcia060 replied to Pixiesmom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My app fee was $25 and the matriculation fee was $50. I guess it does take a lot of time for someone to sit there and sift thru the applications, but I think schools may attract more students by not...

    Melcia060 replied to bumblebeegaga's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
