Will you have a wait after being accepted? If so I would not take Micro now. My school didn't really care who took what..it was a waitlist; if you completed pre-reqs you were considered for " the list" and eventually they switched to GPA system...Get...

Hi there, Let me first say I graduated from Schoolcraft College with a degree in nursing (RN), and I feel they have an excellent program. I'm just wondering if maybe you want to apply everywhere? I say this because you may want to go back for the BSN...

We wore ceil blue to all clinical sites

I just saw something new...Mag sulfate for migraines. Had never seen it until a few months ago in the hospital and had to go home and google it. Sure enough, found research articles regarding its effectiveness. Interesting.

I'm curious how this would affect mobility?

While things can always change, historically... The preference forms for fall nursing 110 come out in June... you may find out in July or beginning or August what your fall schedule is. Good Luck!

Must be funny to read my old posts because I joined AN before I entered nursing school and now am about to graduate. It goes so fast! One more book I wanted to recommend to you...Fluid and Electrolytes made incredibly easy. I used it all of first yea...

My only suggestions are to never miss lecture and study the power points - they are awesome. I saved mine and still use them today. You will also use them in fundamentals when you need to make drug flashcards. Good luck!

Hi - In answer to your question, the syllabus will be online for you right before class starts at Schoolcraft. I graduate in 4 weeks, so I know how excited you must be. Usually the instructor you will have for that course posts materials on the Bla...

When I was learning, it was helpful to watch some of the youtube videos. There are plenty if you type in how to convert iv to saline lock. All you are doing is disconnecting the long tubing and connecting the catheter left in the patient to a short ...

Good Morning, I'm wondering if anyone read the article in the Freep this morning about community colleges offering BSN degree in the future? The end of the article states a BSN is usually needed to get an ENTRY level position. Thoughts???? Signed, Am...

kcc3- If you want to send me a private message, I would be willing to go into more detail about the first year, work load, etc... Thanks, good luck to you!

Hi there, I am in the second year of the program. 3 more classes to go! Schoolcraft switched last year to a ladder curriculum. Everyone take the same prereqs. Then, the first year is 1 15 week class and the rest are 7 weeks, this includes a spring co...

Responding to MsAshley, There are no longer two seperate programs at schoolcraft. One big long waitlist. We all take the same courses the first year. Then, during the summer there is a capstone course that upon completion allows you to take the NCLEX...

Keep in mind, some of the basic classes you need are available on-line and that's great since you have kids, but once you are in the program, you cannot pick the days and times of your classes. You will be assigned a lottery number and can list your ...

Hi there, If you look online, you can pull up the nursing application and see which pre-reqs have to be completed in order to apply to the program. Then there are a few additional classes you can take while you wait. But not many, maybe an english, m...

That would depend on which school you are at. At my institution, the first class is 15 weeks and the clinical portion began at 7.5 weeks. After that, every class is 7 weeks and the clinical starts the first week of lecture. Good luck

Hello, No it was not a part time program. The waiting list was 2 years when I applied so I finished all of my prereqs during that time. I was moved up a year but when I started the actual "nursing program classes" I only had those left. No anatomy or...

Hi, I've just finished my first year of nursing school and below is a sample schedule. Lecture 1 day/wk 8-1pm Clinical (choosen by a lottery system in which you pick the order say 1-4 choices you would like) I had clincal 2 days/wk 7-2. I had a bad l...

Hi- Students are already receiving letters that say 2013. Keep in mind some of those people will move up to 2012 so don't be too discouraged if you get a letter that says 2014. Good luck! PS) I got moved up a year and am now finishing the first year ...

Good luck finding a job. I was told it's a good idea to go to every floor at every hospital and give my resume to the nurse manager. Sometimes that's a faster in than going through hr. Very best of luck to you!

I don't want to say anything definitive here as the prereqs seem to constantly change but A&P and chemistry have to be done to get on the list. You should go to the Schoolcraft website, you can actually print out an application that will tell you...

Hi- I read your post and wanted to let you know... Schoolcraft usually sends out letters to the fall class (fall 2010 this September) towards the end of March. The letters have to be sent back stating whether you still want your spot or not. When the...

Stay calm! This is exciting, you're almost in! While I did not have to read a passage (not sure why you would be doing that...) I did have to answer questions about my study habits and family/work life. It was less about judging me and more about ho...
