I am at the Gainesville campus. I love the teachers in the first year - they are awesome!! Congratulations on getting into Youth Apprehenticeship for your senior year! Good luck to you. Lisa

gainesville college does offer a&pi & a&pii, and microbiology, all of which you need for almost any nursing program. i agree with a previous poster who said to apply to all the nursing programs you can - keep your options open! also, a...

NurseKittyAtlanta, I am currently a nursing student and I'm working as an nurse extern in the ER at Northeast Georgia Medical Center, so i don't know much about the 3 hospitals you mentioned, other than Northside. Northside hires nurses through their...

Hi Princess74, Congratulations on your acceptance to nursing school. I was in your shoes this time last year. It is a very exciting time and you will love it. Our program requires us to have the Hep B series, along with updated Tetanus, TB test ...

Gansu, Talk to EagleGirl06!! She has been a great support system to both me and Juli (your friend from GPC - Dunwoody). PM her, call her, I promise you, you won't regret it! Please talk to her. EagleGirl06, I'm so glad to hear you are doing the B...

I'm sorry, but I don't know what hospitals they will use for the lanier tech campus, since it is new. Maybe the dept. secretary could tell you. (Ann Reid or Linda Stover). As for changing campuses, I don't think they will let you change. I know of...

Hmm - well our instructor told us Friday that the new first year students starting in Aug will be at the Forsyth satellite campus. I am at the Gainesville Satellite campus. We had our finals on Wednesday and we asked her. I have a friend who just f...

I could be wrong, but I think the deadline for Fall 2006 has passed. I know they've already sent out letters to those they accepted. You can check it out on their website. http://www.ngcsu.edu

Hi again. Yes, I am currently a student at NGCSU. I just finished my 1st year and will go into my second, and last year, in August. It is a great program. I've heard about the GPC program, so I know it must be tough on you. Hopefully, you will w...

Actually, they aren't going to be located in North Metro next year. The students who are in first year will finish their last two semesters at the North Metro Campus in Acworth, but the incoming class will be at the North Alpharetta/Forsyth Campus, ...

I'm sorry, but I don't know the answer to that question. Lanier Tech/Forsyth campus is a new location. The previous class was located in Acworth and went to Kennestone/Wellstar. I'm not sure which hospital they will use for clinicals. But I'm p...

NBlessone, GCSU does have a service cancellable loan you can apply for. You can go to their website and look on the Financial Aid page for directions. Get it in as early as you can for consideration. As for OB clinicals, you will do seven weeks of ...

Hi again Gansu, I have a classmate and study partner that lives in the Buford/Suwanee area. It isn't a bad drive at all. She said it takes her about 20 mins to get to the college and the hospital (Northeast Georgia Medical). I look forward to meet...

Hi Sweet Tooth, I do love our program, especially our instructors and the students. All of your lectures, and your labs for the first 6 weeks of 1st and 2nd semester of your 1st year will be at the Gainesville Campus. I don't think we are in the Sc...

Hi Blessone and Sweet Tooth, Congratulations to you both. As EagleGirl just posted, you will love NGCSU. Just like her, I am a Gainesville Campus student. It is a great program. As for being able to do it with a family, I am a "mature" student, at...

Just a quick response regarding allheart.com. My boyfriend ordered a stethescope for my birthday this past August, and he got in in a week (a Littman Master Cardiology). This included having my name engraved on it. He ordered a set of scrubs for m...

Hi Charnurse, I'm a first year attending the Gainesville Campus. My friend, Jules, rode up with me today and we are both all registered and ready to go! We'll see you on Wednesday! Good luck to you. Lisa

Hi blee1, I will be starting my nursing program next week at North Georgia College and State University. There are several of us on here who are starting that program. I've also talked to a couple of people starting GPC's program this fall. Good lu...

Amy, Just start GPC with your core classes and then start applying to nursing programs. I applied to every school I could this past year. Do well in your sciences and you should have no problems. I think what hurt me the second time I applied was t...

Amy, GPC will also be looking at your pre-reqs. They require you to have them all complete before you can apply to the nursing program. Not many colleges take students with none of their pre-reqs completed. NGCSU will accept you with most of them d...

Amy, Both schools are hard to get into. They won't look as closely at your high school GPA as they will your college GPA. So you could start taking your pre-reqs at GPC and do as well as you can. That is what I did. Also, go ahead and apply early,...

Hi shukry, Jules and I are carpooling on both Monday and Wednesday. We are going to go up early on Monday. I am so excited and nervous at the same time! I can't believe it is finally here! Have a great weekend! Lisa

You are quite welcome Reidme. This year you will have class only 1/2 a day on Monday's and then either Wednesday or Friday. If you have lab/clinical on Wednesday, you will not have it on Friday - another group will. Now, next year you will have l...

Hi Reidme, I'm going to be at the Gainesville Campus, but I believe our schedules will be the same. Mondays - you have Nutrition 9-9:50, then Fundamentals 10:11:50 Your clinical day will be assigned by your advisor. My instructor told us (we had a "...

Sheri, is the scrubs store at Discover Mills inside the outlet mall? I'm meeting my girlfriends there next week for lunch and a movie and thought I could pop in there and see what they have. I have already purchased what I need, but it is always fu...
