I am soooo close to finishing up all my pre req for the BSN program. I was planning to take Micro this fall and Chemistry in the Spring of 2010 in time for the BSN program start in Aug 2010. However after the open house and speaking with the recrui...

I believe that you do have to complete the TEAS before they give you response on acceptance. Take your time and study for the teas test. It covers everything and the better you do the more likely you are to get accepted. Good luck!

I hate to admit but you know some patients you just have to chase down! No matter how hard you arrange a time to visit and they agree they somewho are not home!! These particular patients tend to do well with the drive by method. Most of the time you...

I am also a student of Riverside Lpn to RN program and must say that I have had a great experience so far! The clinical time is amazing and you will definitely come out with the skill you need to be a successful nurse!

Good Luck with Riverside. I took am going to Riverside Lpn to RN program and I must say that I am very happy so far with the clinicals and what I have learned. There definetly is an advantage to attending a hospital based program. I have seen MCI ...

Hi, I am starting Riverside program in Jan 2011. I believe that you indeed need to take a college level chemistry. That was the last I had to do and just finnished the exam yesterday!!! Apply as soon as you can. It is a rolling application and adm...

Hey Bob N VA just heard that I too have been accepted into the Riverside evening program starting in Jan 2010! I am very excited and cant wait! I will be taking the bridge program and joining the class later in the year for the last 2 semesters! ye...

Well I can tell you just from my personal experience I took Hum A/P during the summer. I wanted to continue to get the A/P out of the way. So if you are currently taking A/P now take A/P in spring and then take Micro in the summer. It was hard (esp...

I have a great bag that I bought from Walmart. It is actually a tool bag called Fat Max. Hard bottom and soft sides. It has a lot of compartments on the inside as well as the outside. Also has 2 great places to hang and secure a couple of scissor...

For the BSN program there is a class starting in Jan. however it is all online. There are a series of classes that you take to start that are all online. It starts in January.

That makes good sense. What can you tell me about TNCC program? Are they very competitive?

Hey ... is there anyone out there in the same boat as me? I decided to bite the bullet and apply for Sentara 2010 BSN program. I am excited and nervous. I hate waiting and waiting is excatly what I will be doing. The deadline is Sept 01,2009 with...

Good Luck Everyone... Meriwhen if and when we get accepted I will be looking for you in the fall of 2011!

I use to work in the gi lab within Leigh Memorial probably about 6 years ago. I did all kinds of procedures including colonscopy, endoscopy, ERCP,bronchoscopy, paracenthesis, insert peg tubes, remove foregin objects from every body opening and so on...

Yes... I have heard that Sentara give the most hands on clinical experience in the nursing program. I have from some older nurses that students from MCI and Nofolk State seem to take longer to catch on then Sentara or TCC.

Wow... that is a dilemma. I think TCC is anything over 7 years for science classes .... That's a hard pill to shallow. You have to do what you gotta do! Will MCI give you check for all your pre reqs. If they do take your classes then I think that ...

I do a lot of long infusions. Where I work we are all given wireless laptops. All of our charting is done online. We dont even use paper charts. Needless to say... I am kept very occuiped by looking up things on the internet. Sometime(most of the...

You are not alone in trying to find the right fit for you and your schedule. I can give you my 2 cents.... I think while mci is easier to get in I am leary about the transferring of credits if you plan to continue on with your education. I am also ...

Hi.. If you are already a nurse you do not have to take the CNA class. They will take off the first 2 nursing classes since you are a LPN. It wont hurt to apply to the BSN program. I believe that they only offer new starts once a year in August. ...

wow thanks for the info... I guess it is sort of like MCI with the accelerated classes. I plan to check them out next week and make start applying to some schools.

Hey Two sugars What book do you need. I have one that I would gladly give away. I refuse to sell it back for only $25.00. It is a brand new book I just bought in Jan!!!! My A&P book is titled Human Anatomy & Physiology seventh edition, is...

I have a friend (in Va bch) that is taking the MCI route and states that it is right around $40,000! Thats a lot and I heard that your credits wont transfer! To know for sure you can look up the accredited schools on the board of nursing website.

Hi Sara. I too am wrestling with the same problem. I am an LPN now and would like to obtain my MSN/MBA. This fall I will have completed all my pre reqs for both programs. I have decided to aim for sentara however If I can get into the Riverside pr...
