Hello, Just wondering if their are any current students or graduates from the Darton College Nursing Program in Albany, Georgia. I would like to hear of your experiences or any advice you would like to give in regards to the program. Thanks

Hey Roni! I see your feeling mighty generous I thought you would just want to get the hell out of there like the rest of us did. You are too funny lol.

hang in there ahain0013. my hiring process took exactly one month from start to finish at st. mary's. i had to interview with hr, interveiw with two different floor managers, then also do a peer interview, and was finally offered the position a mon...

hi ahain0013 i was having a hard time even getting a nurse recruiter on the phone and a interview seemed near impossible in the atlanta area so i decided to venture further out with my apps. i was able to get an interview with st. mary's and northea...

i agree lillylyle. i decided to go at the last minute and left feeling frustrated as well. i went through all the stations and made an effort to introduce myself to the managers and left resumes. with the large crowds though i couldn't figure out ...

As you can see your are not alone. I am also a new grad and my commute is 36 miles one way. I started to apply to Atlanta hospitals back in October while I was still in school. After filling out at least 100 apps (could be more) I landed only one ...

I also received an invite by email to this event. I just accepted a job offer so I will not be attending. Do you know if this event is only for people who applied for the August residency? I wanted to tell me friends about it that are still looking...

Hi everyone, Yesterday I had my first interview as a new grad for a RN position. During my interview with HR the nurse recruiter went over benefits and pay. Following the interview I met with two different nurse directors for the two hiring floors. I...

Thank you for responding optimusRN. Well maybe I still have a shot since it doesn't start until the 21st. I was just wondering because my apps have been under consideration since early Jan. Did ever follow stat of your application or did you just ...

Hi optimusRN, I don't have a answer to your question I instead have a question for you. I also applied to Emory's new grad residency program. One for periop and another for oncology the status on both apps say under consideration. Do you know if th...

Thanks for responding hiddencatRN. Well the first nurse director was cordial but a bit under the weather. I still continued to be energetic and pleasant but I could tell she really wasnt feeling well. The second director was more energetic, we spo...

I took the Nclex this morning and the computer shut off with 75 questions. For these last couples of days I would go over meds, priority/delegation, and infection control big time. Good Luck

The summer is easier in terms of the structure of the program. As I was saying in my other post if the program is set up the same then that means if you start in the summer then you will never have to take the harder classes (ie Adulth Health I, Adu...

Hi I am a Dec 2010 graduate of the Darton college nursing program. I think my GPA was around a 2.7 or 2.8ish and Hesi score was 81.92%. @Success88 I wonder why people told you Dartons nursing program was bad. In my opinion the program is straight ...

No can't really say that I have. I think for the most part people who get in are just happy to be in. You will probably get more of a response about what kind of GPA's people got in with on here due to it being more discrete sp?

I think once they close out the Hesi testing then they will start to send out the acceptance letters for spring. It didn't take long for me to get it at all. I was in the same boat as you when if came to goofing off in school. Everything happens for ...

Thanks! I graduate in December so not too much longer to go. You sound like you have the right attitude going into it though. That's the thing about nursing school it's tough so you have to be serious and ready to work hard. It's the difference betwe...

Your Hesi score and Gpa is higher than mines when I got accepted. Not to mention they accept 100 students three times a year. Unlike atlanta getting into this program is not really the difficult part, it's actually making it through the program whe...

I am a senior in Darton college nursing program. My Hesi score was 81.92%, I transferred in with probably like a 2.8 gpa.

Just go the the school website www.darton.edu, from there on the home page on the right hand side there will be a quicklink for class schedules.

Wow I started this thread last year in May and now I am only 3 months away from graduation! I do not have any complaints about Darton. If it wasn't for Darton I would still be in Atlanta on a waiting list trying to get into a nursing program. Unli...

No I will be taking my Micro at the Albany campus. I think the instructor's name is Mr. Wilson.

I am currently in my third semester out of five at Darton College. Yes they do accept 100 students three times a year, so there is a greater chance of getting in with a lower GPA. The HESI test is not that bad just study the study guide. I actuall...

Hi there, I'm only in my second semester but I can share with you what advice I have so far.... First: I would brush up on my math. In nursing school we do dosage calculations. In my required text book for math there was sections with basic math lea...

Ok maybe my break was a little too long because I don't get this problem.... Question Tylenol tabs iii are ordered. The tablets are labeled 325mg/tablet. How many tablets do you give? Answer The answer is 3 tablets but I don't get it. This problem...
