Hi. I am applying for entry to LSU's CARE program for my accelerated BSN degree in August 2008. I am just getting ready to send my application off, and was wondering if anyone here has done this program, or is currently enrolled in it. Mainly, I'm cu...

I'm not sure when orientation is. I haven't heard anything from them yet, other than my admission letter. Are you getting this information from the website? I would imagine we would be with the regular undergrads whenever theirs is, since we'll p...

jeagle - I'm from out of state, too, but I'm not that far away. Originally my plan was just to commute from where I live now, but that was a pretty stupid idea now that I've thought about it and planned some, so I'll have to relocate, too. I don't ...

Peachy, your good vibes must have helped. I got my letter today. I got in.

Thanks. Hopefully in a couple of hours I'll know something.I'm prepared to accept the decision either way, but I kind of just want to know something already.

I didn't get a letter yesterday. Hopefully it will come today. I don't know how I'll make it through the whole day at work, wondering if it came. :uhoh21:Congrats on your acceptance.

Sorry Peachy. I still don't know yet. Guess I might have the verdict when I get home today.

Oh nooooooo. Now I'm really nervous. :uhoh21: Best of luck to everyone who applied.

I hope it's early in May, too. I can't take much more of this waiting. I'm worried, too, about financial aid, but I haven't been worrying too much about it, because I figured I'd save myself a lot of grief in case I don't get in. I honestly don't...

Haha! I'm glad I could help you out with my sloth-like qualities. I'm also glad that other people haven't heard yet either. I was starting to get a little nervous. Does anyone have any idea when we should be hearing something?

I haven't filled it out either. It's one of those things I keep meaning to do but never quite get around to actually doing it.

Not yet. It's starting to drive me a little nuts too. :uhoh21: Hopefully, we'll all hear something soon...and it'll be good news.

Well, I've got my third Chem test tonight. In a couple of hours actually. :uhoh21: I don't think I'm going to do nearly as well on this one as I did on the first two. But I feel relatively well prepared, so I guess we'll see.

I'm soo jealous! Good Work!Yeah, I've got to keep it up, though. Now we're doing the really hard stuff. :uhoh21:

That's great!! Congrats! I got mine back tonight, too, and I'm very happy with my grade as well. We also got our midterm grades, and I'll have an A average so far, so I'm pretty stoked.

I'll be finding out tonight how I did on my second test, and I'm really nervous about it. The second test was awful. It wasn't all that hard, per se. It was just extremely time consuming and required a lot of focus and patience. It didn't help th...

Hi everyone! Been reading on all of these forums here for a while. I've even posted a couple of queries outside of this area before. But now I'm starting to freak out a little bit, and think maybe I've been a little bit crazy or a little bit stupi...

I got my first Chem test back. I got a very high A, so I'm totally stoked right now! With all our grades thus far, I'm pulling a very high A as well. Of course, it's only going to get harder, but I'm off on the right track.

Thanks, Mariposa! I know just what you mean. Even though I know I won't be hearing anything, I still check the mail every day, just in case. I've also pretty much convinced myself that I'm not getting in and have started planning for what I'm goin...

Ha! That sounds like my instructor.We had our first Chemistry test last night, and there were several typos and mistakes on it. Crazy! On assignments it's one thing, but on the test. Ridiculous. It's okay, though. I think I did pretty well on ...

Actually, I live in MS. I will definitely check that program out. Financially, it might be a little difficult to relocate, but I'm definitely looking for as many viable options as possible. So thanks! :)

Cruffler - An engineer, eh? Some of my best friends in law school were engineers. Thanks for your advice. The program I've applied to doesn't require interviews, but I did make sure to include my drive and passion in my statement, in order to mak...

Thanks, carolina. I appreciate any and all advice, solicited or not. Honestly, the MSN thing is almost definitely not what I'm going to do. Since I don't have much of a healthcare background at all, I'm definitely interested in learning a lot mor...

I'm taking Chem I this semester. I'm in, too. :) We have a test coming up this Wednesday. It's mostly the introductory terms and conversions and some of the other simple equations and stuff, so it shouldn't be too bad. I'm hoping for an A. We'll...

Thanks everyone for the comments. They've really helped a lot. Rianna - I thought about doing the direct entry MSN thing, but unfortunately the program closest to me doesn't offer a lot of different options for master's study, and I'm worried that n...
