Thanks! I think there was only 1 position open but I'm not positive. Have you called HR to see what "under review" means? Good Luck to you!

I was hired in the NICU at CHOC @ Mission.

Southern California

Hi everyone! I am a new grad who just found out I will be starting a NICU new grad residency program in Jan! I am SO excited, this is exactly what I have wanted to do throughout school and I feel so lucky to be able to start in NICU. Any advice for m...

I'm really confused, where are you getting a 30% pass rate? http://www.dora.state.co.us/nursing/education/RN-PassRates.pdf

http://www.nlnac.org/Forms/candidacy.asp http://www.ncahlc.org/?option=com_directory&Action=ShowBasic&instid=2886 I'm glad your "well respected" professor is so concerned with what DSN is doing. Maybe she ought to check these websites out....

I currently work at both hospitals (University and Childrens) and here's what I have been told. Since I am currently employed with Childrens they will honor my BSN from DSON regardless of NLN accreditation. University will honor my BSN if my school a...

I just received this email today regarding NLN accreditation so I wanted to update people on DSN's status: "Dear Students Staff and Faculty, The National League for Nursing Accreditation Council has announced that Denver School of Nursing has been ...

Hi there, I know this post was from awhile ago but I wanted to reply since no one has. I currently work at Childrens as a unit secretary and I will be doing my senior practicum in the NICU. I would definitely recommend volunteering or getting a job t...

They are 2 different accreditations. As I have had it explained to me DSN wanted HLC candidacy before NLN. They are planning on having a MSN program in the near future and HLC is regional accreditation that is required. We were told regional accredit...

Halfway done.......hardest quarter so far is 4th. Hopefully it will be smooth sailing after that! Good luck to you!

Yes I do attend DSN. 4th quarter of the BSN program.

they told us we should have NLN candidacy by the end of the year......we will see if that comes true. ::crosses fingers::

Just wanted to let everyone know we now have HLC candidacy which is the first step towards NLN candidacy. http://www.ncahlc.org/index.php?institution=&state=CO&submit=Search&form_submitted=TRUE&Itemid=192&option=com_directory&...

No problem! I'll let you know when I hear something from her. This quarter (4th) is supposed to be one of the hardest. We have 2 full days of classroom and 3 12 hr days of clinicals. So far it's going well, we're only in the first week of classes. H...

I also wanted to add I spoke with our former dean and now head of accreditation this week. She said to come back at the end of Oct and she will have news regarding NLN accreditation. So yes, we are making progess.

Also they just added a new NCLEX review book to our books this quarter (4th quarter in the BSN program). I feel they are trying to help get the NCLEX scores up, but honestly it's up to the individual to study and prepare for HESI and the NCLEX. Nursi...

Most schools now have HESI exit exams as it prepares you for taking the NCLEX. You get a printout of what areas you need to work on before taking the NCLEX. As far as I understand we have 3 tries to pass the HESI before grad.

hln is regional accreditation. we are supposed to have it sometime in oct. we are also supposed to have nln candidacy a few months after that, that's all i know. our med/surg professor beefed up nclex style questions in her class. i would assume all...

We are seeking HLN accreditation currently. We have to have HLN accreditation before we can apply for NLN candidacy. It's a big red tape process of jumping through hoops.

Our current dean has taken a new position just focusing on accreditation. They have told our class we should have NLN by the time we graduate (a year from now). We've been told it's difficult for DSN since we have so many varying programs (LPN to ADN...

The schedules change dates and times every quarter, so I can't really tell you when you will have class. But you will have Patho and Pharm, which are 2x a week classes. Health Assessment and Topics of Professional Nursing are 1x a week. Health Assess...

They are waiting for us to get NLN accreditation and said they have been waiting for awhile! They look forward to hiring our grads according to the new grad program coordinator. So that's great news for DSN!

Agreed, he's a snake oil salesman, he will tell you whatever you want to sign with the school. Although after talking to the associate dean about accreditation they are on track to submit regional accreditation by this fall and NLN accreditation soon...

I just wanted to let you guys know I am currently in my 3rd quarter and have had a good experience with DSN's BSN program. I just finished my Med/Surg I clinicals and was told we were some of the best students they have ever had. (They have had CU an...
