Anyone beginning UC's online FNP program for the Fall '12 term? I'm looking to network/share information with fellow classmates. -Jay

I posted the webinar PP on the Facebook group page.

I had my welcome call this week. My program adviser talked about paying for tuition, asked if I was familiar with Blackboard, whether or not I had a time management plan, and spoke briefly about what to expect for upcoming classes this fall. She di...

About a month to go before fall classes begin.

I was told it could take up to 12 weeks to hear from admissions, but I received an acceptance email 5 weeks after I submitted all of the required materials.

I'm in NH. I have a couple of NP's that have agreed to take me on. One graduated from an online program so she sympathizes with trying to find good preceptors without help from the university. I have heard from others that it is becoming increasin...

My manager has been encouraging me to look into derm. Funny, because she is a career OR nurse. I thought she would have steered me more in that direction, but she's really promoted keeping an open mind. I'm excited to be exposed to areas I might n...

I work in the OR. I would like to first assist. How about you?

Yeah, unfortunately I don't have a choice. I have to stay as close to 40 hrs/week as possible for insurance purposes. I work four 10's, so I always have a day off during the week to devote to clinicals. My manager is extremely supportive of contin...

Congrats! I'm anxious to get started. A recent grad works within my organization and has had great things to say about the program.

I want admission into this program so badly it is making me ill.

To the members of my clinical group: Thank you for your cooperation, encouragement, solidarity, and sense of humor. You made the 0400 carpool trips tolerable (even enjoyable at times). You praised my achievements and lamented my failures, never jud...

Here are some links I bookmarked when I was taking A&P. I hope they are useful. http://msjensen.cehd.umn.edu/webanatomy/ http://medtropolis.com/vbody.aspx http://americanhistory.si.edu/anatomy/bodyparts/nma03_bodyparts.html http://www.directanat...

I had questions relating to resistance across different types of circuits, force, and friction appear on the NLN exam I took. If I remember correctly, there were roughly ten physics related questions in all, but every test is different.

Hello, all. 35 and abandoning my nomadic ways for a more fulfilling career. Classes begin tomorrow. I am totally pumped. Good luck to all of you in your pursuit of a nursing degree.

Kickin' it into overdrive tomorrow! I am entering our program with a couple of old friends and many former classmates. It looks like we are going to have a fun group.

I'll be taking Micro and Psych over 7 weeks. If I survive the summer I'll have cleared all my pre-wrecks and have a couple of weeks to decompress before I enter my program in the fall.

I just finished up A&P1 with a notoriously difficult professor. She was exacting and demanding and my nose did not come out of our book for four months. All the hard work payed off and I earned a solid A! More importantly, I really learned a l...

Thank you for your responses Tazzi and Myxel67. Does anyone have any thoughts on how logic, set theory, and probability relate to nursing?

Hello everyone, I am currently finishing up some prerequisite course work before beginning in a local AD nursing program in the fall. One of the classes I am currently enrolled in is College Mathematics. We have been assigned a paper detailing how ...
