    Thanks Ladies! I posted that ? before I got your PM Kris, but regardless I am so relieved to hear it is every 16 weeks, phew! They are driving me a little bit wacky though. All I want to do is talk to...

  3. Would I be eligible to go to Excelsior?

    I've just been browsing this website, and saw a lot of threads on Excelsior. I've checked out the website and it seems great. One big thing though.. every single nursing program I have looked into...

    NikNik- Isn't each semester 16 weeks- not 8? From what I can see each semester is 16 weeks, and has 2 sessions. I only ask because it will make a HUGE difference in my choice, if I have to fly there...

    I think Maine is pretty lax. When I called to ask if they'd accept it she said "If the BON of the College's home state recognizes it, then we do." Good 'nough for me! :) We will be moving back to the...

    Thank you both for all of the info! I'm still waiting to hear back from a few schools regarding getting my pre-req's done. Kris- If I do go, I would be applying for the spring 2008 semester....

    CaitRN2be replied to CaitRN2be's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Hmm.. I'll have to think it over. Maybe I'm a huge wimp but I don't feel particulary safe as a young woman flying and staying alone for 4 days in a city I've never been.. St. Louis no less- one of the...

    Ok I just looked at the curriculum again on their website. Tell me if I'm reading this right.. Semester one does not require you to do the 4 day validation, they start after semester 2, for a total of...

    CaitRN2be replied to lindseylou345's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Hi ladies- I have a quick question for you regarding Chamberlain. How often does one have to go to St. Louis? It is required right? No matter what EVERYONE has to go for 4 day validations? Do you have...

    From all of you wonderful, seasoned nurses! A little background.. I was more then 1/2 way through my BA in Elementary Education when I decided to throw caution to the wind and do what I TRULY want to...

    Thanks for the clarification, Eric! I was wondering what could possibly be attracting so many people to that college. Now I

    Thanks all!! TraumaRus- We have a friend at Yokota! I don't have any problems getting the pre-req's done. We have two colleges on our base, Central Texas college and University of Maryland. Both are...

    Thank you everyone! I'm going to research this a little more. Also, I forgot to mention I will be going for my ADN, not BSN. So if more people could respond who got an ADN I would appreciate it so...
