I also will not be able to sleep. I can't wait to get all our books, etc. I wish we could of had them previous to classes starting. We will be reading 6 chapters from one of our books it looks like so far for homework. I do not know how people can work with the fact there is so much studying to do. I also don't know how to manage NOT working! See you tomorrow!

iwillbanurse, can you believe we start tomorrow I can't believe I am finally going to make my dream a reality!!!! Congratulations everyone!!!!!! Best of luck to us all:wink2: Please keep in touch, if possible given the amount of studying we all will be doing

Hi. I didn't get this message earlier. I haven't had time to check the site. They told me you can bridge. When you do you might have to do core english and algebra. I am not positive how it all works. I believe you get some credit for going through the lpn program.

I highly doubt you can become an RN in less than 2 years, unless you have a degree already that covers prereqs.to even allow you to be accepted into a college program. I would of loved to be able to do the state program, but getting in is difficult if you need to start as soon as possible. At P&C, you can bridge.As iwillbanurse08 said " it works for some".

Hi Lucky to be a nurse.Congratulaions! When do you graduate? I am signed to start in Jan.09. I can't wait! Please keep in touch re: the program. Do you have a day off every week? Also, I heard you have to study 4-5 hrs. a night. Is that about right? To the other posts.I am on a time constraint, so I decided to go to P&C because it is 15 months long, unlike other avenues.The Watertown school seems nice and it is $30k. I don't know why you were told $36k.

I was interviewed by Ms. Del Maestro. I have been accepted to the school. :DI have a very short amount of time to get the physical and f. aid in to them! It is all worth it. :ancong!: Thanks for all your input, I am glad to hear positves about the school. I can't wait!!!!!!!!!!

Wonderful iwillbanurse08 !!! Looks like we'll be classmates! I am soooo happy. Congratulations on everything Ella. I can't wait to be in your shoes. Have you found employment?

I just had my interview after passing the tests, so I am just waiting to see if I am going forward. Fingers crossed. Financial aide is my worry.

Hi. How do I reply to your private messages? All has gone well so far. I was at the same NET test too. How did you do? I passed and have another interview tomorrow!

Hi. So how did you do with your interview? Did you like the school? Does it seem like it will be hard to get in?

Thanks so much for responding. Time does fly and I am so happy for you. I am so excited to meet with P&C. They told me to call in July for the Jan. 09 class. Can you tell me more about the hours and when clinicals start. Can you give me more details about the program? I don't mean to bombard you, but i just am anxious to learn more about it. I HOPE I pass their admissions . Thank you so much.

You must be near graduation! I am looking to go to P&C. Can you tell me all about it please. I am desperate for opinions.

I ended up scheduling my NET. The state program changed their pre-requisites, so I didn't have time to get them in before the application deadline! I can't believe it! So many people had no idea and couldn't apply either. Now I am planning on checking out Porter and Chester. Any info. on them would be appreciated.

Hi. I have been trying to get info. from others re: Porter and Chester for almost 6 months. Unfortuneately I haven't recieved mush response. I also am going to apply to P&C ,for the JAN.09' class in Watertown. Which class are you both thinking about? I really want this so bad!!!!! Please, if anyone knows how P&C is, let me know. Good Luck

I don't think people know about this site. I stumbled upon it trying to learn about the various LPN programs in Ct. Initially, I got responses. I have had a question re: the state LPN program. Nothing. I would like to find out more about it from someone who has been or is in the program.

Has anyone gone thru the state LPN program? I just wanted input about it because I will be focusing my efforts on being excepted to the one at Kaynor. The web site doesn't give much info. All help appreciated!

I would be so happy to start at P & C, but I don't think financial aide amounts to much. I would have to afford day care and other bills! I did get the basic outline info. If I went to talk with them, I would want to sign up. That's how I felt when I checked out med. assisting. It is inspiring to see their set-up. I didn't feel that way about Stone. I didn't think they had a L.P.N. program then or I would have looked into that . Once again it is the cost factor. Keep me informed on your schooling. It may come down to going there if I don't get in to Kaynor. Congratulations to you and for getting in earlier than you expected!!!! Thanks for your help. I am so happy I came upon this site.

I called the testing line and they said to call back Sept. 07' ! I appreciate all your help.

Thanks so much. I have read all day, all the messages from this site. I have heard alot about not going to Lincoln, but not much re: Porter and Chester. I suppose it could be similar. I liked it much better than Stone when I was looking to do medical assisting. I have decided to study and test for the state tech.schools. As much as I would love to start sooner than later;I just can not afford the private schools! I have waited this long to attempt nursing, so I can wait a little longer. I am going to call about the program and test now.

It is my first day on this site. I have an interest in attending a LPN school, but do not know what direction to go. Tech. schools are so much cheaper! I heard there is a waiting list and there is only one session at a time. Is Porter and Chester is very expensive? That would be the school I would focus on going to. Please tell me any info. you can about the school. I wonder if I could study and test in time for the Oct. class. I wish I could work part-time too.Thank you for any help.

Hi. I am in the exact same situation. I don't know which is the best school. I don't want to drive too far. Private is very expensive but probably easier to get into. It's been a very long time since high school so i am scared of a college route. I think the state program is the best for me but I read on this site that there is a long waiting list if you even get accepted. It's a long wait for the next class! Ididn't see Goodwin or Prince. Where did you find schools? What did you hear about Lincoln? I am inquiring at Porter and Chester now. Does anyone have info. on them? Thanks for any help. I need to move ahead at this point in my life.
