2. Denver jobs for new grads

   Penny8611 replied to verklempt's topic in Colorado Nursing

   I have to be honest...I was ready to dive in head first and it was only the wait-list at ACC that slowed me down. I was going to get my credits together to apply to CU, but the wind has kind of gone...

3. Denver jobs for new grads

   Penny8611 replied to verklempt's topic in Colorado Nursing

   I'm not even in nursing school, so I could be completely wrong on this, but...the job market for new grads is dismal here. The link above is to the "Colorado Center for Nursing Excellence" which, as...

4. Looking for LPN school in Colorado

   Penny8611 replied to phines8098's topic in Colorado Nursing

   I know we're not supposed to name names, so I'll stick with initials. I took it through ACC. TH, was the instructor. Nightmare. Complete and total. I withdrew rather than have it tank my GPA....

5. Looking for LPN school in Colorado

   Penny8611 replied to phines8098's topic in Colorado Nursing

   I took it online as well. NOT easy. It was the toughest online class I've taken. My experience was that if I didn't know the answer to a quiz question, there is very little time to look it up....

6. Looking for LPN school in Colorado

   Penny8611 replied to phines8098's topic in Colorado Nursing

   I can't really tell you anything about either school, but I would say that I, personally, would not choose to live in the Springs if I was going to school in Pueblo. During good weather it's not a...

   Penny8611 replied to angelstrings's topic in Colorado Nursing

   If you are open to living anywhere, the southeast corner of the state is usually hurting for medical people. However, much of the southeast corner of the state looks like Kansas. I grew up in Canon...

   Thanks for the reply, CalebMommy! Here's part of the email I got back from ACC: >> All candidates who had applied to the program and received a waitlist number by the "cut-off date" of December...

    Calebmommy, I'm dying to know what school you go to!!!!! I attend ACC. This is the info I got from them recently: >>> Your waitlist number will not change. ACC enrolls twice per year; one...

11. Anyone hear the waitlist is changing? Again?

    Penny8611 replied to CBsMommy's topic in Colorado Nursing

    All I know for certain is in regards to ACC...I don't even know if it applies to all the Front Range CCs or not. Very frustrating, I know! The ACC info:...

12. Drive from Ft Collins to Denver?

    Penny8611 replied to Cmunst45636's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Hate to be a downer, but I wouldn't be able to do it every day. It's a four lane (badly maintained) road most of the way, heavily traveled by 18-wheelers, and one of the more dangerous stretches of...
