  1. Gateway LPN Fast Track

    AZmom posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    http://nursing.gatewaycc.edu/NR/rdonlyres/A0D8A85C-49C1-4E98-8008-3B709C5FF689/0/FTPNInfoPacketSPRING2007.pdf Verah interesting........ Looks to me like it's a separate application process. Don't...

  2. WI tech colleges -- do credits expire?

    AZmom posted a topic in General Nursing

    I received my transcript evaluation from FVTC the other day, and only 3 courses seemed to transfer (only one of them applicable to the nursing program: SOC 101). I have a BA from UWM (obviously 120+...

  3. Any ideas on how to finance a 2nd degree?

    AZmom replied to Emptynstr2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    1. Do you own a home you can pull some equity out of? 2. If you rent, find a cheaper place to live once your lease is up. 3. Does your college offer scholarships or

  4. On-Line Classes through WI Tech Schools

    AZmom replied to nbrody's topic in General Nursing

    How do you like A&P through Moraine Park? Are the exams proctored? What kind of labs are there -- are they all done over the computer? I need to take it soon, and it's looking like online may be...

  5. WI tech colleges -- do credits expire?

    AZmom replied to AZmom's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks everyone. I guess they hadn't worked through all my transcripts when they sent me the notice out. Everything I wanted to transfer did (mostly the general stuff). Whew! My Chem is only good...

  6. Apache Junction Nursing Program?

    AZmom replied to Knit1Purl2's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I moved from AJ a year and a half ago and now live in WI, but I recall even back then, there was talk of opening up a nursing program at the AJ campus. I'd give them a call and see if that's come to...

  7. CHM 130 on RIO advice?

    AZmom replied to Mama2grlz's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I took Chm130 through Rio a few years back and earned an A. However I didn't work (SAHM to four preschoolers) so had the time to devote to it.....somewhat, lol. I spent 20+ hours each week on the...

  8. Anatomy and Physiology I online? Ever Done it?

    AZmom replied to Luv2helpppl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Rio doesn't have a very good reputation in regards to A&P, from what I've read here. I lasted about a week before dropping. I agree with others -- Rio really drops the ball on this course....

  9. I need Psychology 101 HELP!!! Rio Salado

    AZmom replied to aawilwcb's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I began to take it there a few years back and dropped. I felt the professor wasn't very helpful and the course was a joke as far as learning anything. I'd taken CHEM through Rio previously, learned...

  10. Quick (hopefully easy) ? about BIO156 through Rio

    AZmom posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm hoping to get the books needed for this class through half.com or someone cheaper. But unfortunately Rio offers them in a bundle pack. I know which two books I need, and their editions, and have...

  11. Healthcare CPR training...

    AZmom replied to mysunshines0307's topic in Arizona Nursing

    The AJ Fire Department offers it the first Saturday of every month I believe. There are also a few programs in East Mesa. A friend of mine mentioned......Heartsavers? I honestly don't remember if...

  12. Apollo Nursing School

    AZmom replied to Mayaquice's topic in Arizona Nursing

    For some reason I'm thinking it's a very new program. I don't believe they've even had a graduating class yet; perhaps they haven't even started a class

  13. Anyone taken or taking Bio 201 online at Rio Salado??

    AZmom replied to IwannabeaRNAZ's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Wanted to add.....Multi, I think you just convinced me to not attempt Micro through Rio. I'm going to see if/how I can work it into Spring semester, or sometime thereafter even if it takes me longer....

  14. Anyone taken or taking Bio 201 online at Rio Salado??

    AZmom replied to IwannabeaRNAZ's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I started BIO201 at Rio, but dropped it two lessons in. It was just too difficult (and I had taken an online science before, so it wasn't that). Too much concentration on the piddliest of details,...

  15. Help! Any CNA Classes under $500?!?

    AZmom replied to FlyMurse's topic in Arizona Nursing

    If money is tight and you are willing to slow it down a bit, you can get a much better break on your tuition. By taking 7 credits or less through MCCCD you can be classified as an unclassified...

  16. please help with location...

    AZmom replied to dlaura22's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm not sure you will be able to find what you're looking for out here. At least not in the Valley. Some of the smaller, non-metro towns have character, if that's something you'd consider. I'm a...

  17. Anyone going to Gateway CC in the Fall 07 or taking the Mesa CC NA prgram look here!!

    AZmom replied to IwannabeaRNAZ's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I PM'd ya.

  18. Anyone going to Gateway CC in the Fall 07 or taking the Mesa CC NA prgram look here!!

    AZmom replied to IwannabeaRNAZ's topic in Arizona Nursing

    From what "they" say, it should be very difficult, but doable if you put your mind to it. It'll also go better for you if you're not working. We can't comment on instructors here, but can on courses....

  19. Gateway FastTrack LPN

    AZmom replied to Seven, RN2b's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Do a search on it in this forum. I posted a rundown on the program recently after meeting with an advisor from Gateway.

  20. Mercy Gilbert Medical Center

    AZmom replied to RN2B07's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Bumping this thread to ask --- anyone now work at Mercy Gilbert? What do you think of it? (not asking for myself, but for someone else who's interested in working there as an RN in

  21. Quick (hopefully easy) ? about BIO156 through Rio

    AZmom replied to AZmom's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Thanks for the update!!! I'm re-reviewing an old general Biology textbook I bought off of half a while back. My plan is to spend the next month doing so and seeing how well I feel I know the...

  22. Quick (hopefully easy) ? about BIO156 through Rio

    AZmom replied to AZmom's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I believe around $150 for used ones (if they even HAVE any) through Rio. I don't remember what the new ones would cost -- I imagine over

  23. Summer classes at GCC

    AZmom replied to Glina's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Sometimes it's the busier people who manage to do the best. It's all about time management. GWCC is where I was going for BIO201. They have a good syllabus. You get to drop one quiz, one exam (not...

  24. Summer classes at GCC

    AZmom replied to Glina's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Where are you taking BIO201 Glina? I just signed up to take it Saturdays at Phoenix College. Again sort of. (Nah, I didn't flunk out or anything; had to drop it when I got really sick.) I'm...

  25. Summer classes at GCC

    AZmom replied to Glina's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Check into Gateway's LPN FastTrack. They *DO* offer a nighttime/weekend option with that program. Warning: in order to start Spring 2008 (which is their next start date), you need to have your CNA...
