the hospital i work at prepays for your tuition and books. No work commitment afterwards. :) to qualify for tuition reimbursment/prepayment you only have to work 2 days a week.

So i don't expect a detailed answer, but a general answer is ok I start block 1 this august. The weekend before I start clinicals my friend is getting married. I would basically be going out of town for the whole weekend. I haven't bought my ticket o...

i actually have class/lecture for a few weeks before the clinical rotation starts thanks

Hi Anyone starting Block 1 this august? Have you bought your textbooks yet? I haven't I haven't been in school for about 2 years. What are some good reliable sites to buy books? I'm thinking amazon.com is probably a safe bet.

i'm going to SCC I went on textbooks.com and my total for all the books (except for a bunch of Davis books that are being put together as a special "package" thru the SCC bookstore) was about 375... so i'm wondering just how much this package is goin...

someone asked yesterday how long the wait list is and the advisor said its not at least a 5 semester wait... *****

I went to the info session on monday. You have to be on the waiting list to apply. You had to attend either monday or tuesday's info session to apply because we had to fill out part of the application right there. We had to pick a question they gave ...

I'm sort of in your situation. I"m 26, work full time and i also didn't want to wait. I was accepted into this upcoming class at Apollo, but I didn't get a good vibe (This is just my opinion). I had to retake classes I already did b/c they said so, y...

Hi Everyone, I've read through alot of posts that sorta discuss my dilemma, but I just wanted to ask it for myself... I work at Scottsdale Healthcare and can get into the Scottsdale CC nursing program in about a year I believe... However I was also a...

Thanks all for your input. I spoke with someone at Scottsdale CC and they said the wait time for scottsdale healthcare employees is a 1-2 semester wait. I meet with someone in a couple of weeks. Again I really appreciate your input and thoughts!

Thanks for your input. I would def. want to pursue my education as a nurse and Apollo college only transfers to UofP. I don't think you can be a CNS thru UofP, right? I might just be willing to bite the bullet and wait. Thanks again :)

I was able to talk to someone at iia in the nursing dept. You do need to complete a CNA program, but do not actually have to be licsensed or have been working as a CNA for any length of time.
