    Need a nursing school which does not require prerquisites for admission

    Asherah replied to Ewurafia's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Pre-reqs aside, I don't know know of any programs that have application windows open at this point to start Fall 2008. Many programs require you to apply 9 months or so in advance of the start

    financial aide question

    Asherah replied to Audi02's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Unfortunately, that is not true in all cases. I have over 200 credits/units (and a previous BA) and as I will be entering a two-year BSN program, for financial aid purposes, I am entering as a...

    financial aide question

    Asherah replied to Audi02's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    We cannot tell you what the appropriate selection is, your financial aid office should be able to tell you exactly what academic year you should select on the FAFSA. Also, to clarify, students who...

    Asherah replied to Asherah's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Asherah replied to Asherah's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Wow, I'm sorry! I'm not a Columbian, but I've been following along...I think its personally ridiculous that they can't bother do anything when they say they will, including the deadlines they set for...

    Yes, all of us (even Accelerated students) were required to submit the non-refundable deposit before receiving financial aid packages - unfortunately it seems that several schools do this. JHU is the...

    Financial Aid Question-Is this Normal?

    Asherah replied to Lovethefall's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Well, I'm still unsure of how long they're going to make you wait, but I'm in the position where I had to accept my offer of admission by March 12th and submit my deposit ($500) and now I have to wait...

    Financial Aid Question-Is this Normal?

    Asherah replied to Lovethefall's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Well just to clarify, did they state that you would have to submit your letter of intent to attend the program, or actually enroll in courses? Some programs are a bit delayed and do not submit their...

    New Grad in CA needs Advice

    Asherah replied to NewGrad08CA's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Looking for a Program and Confused about Future

    Asherah replied to FutureLadyRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm not sure how you could graduate in May 2009 and finish even a 2-year ADN program by December 2010, most Associate's programs are four semesters long (or two full years), assuming you've completed...

    Looking for a Program and Confused about Future

    Asherah replied to FutureLadyRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Asherah replied to jewelshouse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You didn't mention how long the potential summer session course is, but if you do choose to take it, I would advise that it be the only course you enroll in and give it your full attention. I took my...
