  1. Wayne State University

    WayneStateKatie replied to SillyRabbit's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I'd probably attempt to register for both 1020 and 1030-- see if it will let you add both classes through pipeline. If you can successfully register for both I'd email Santalucia and explain your...

  2. Wayne State University

    WayneStateKatie replied to SillyRabbit's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Barber's a pretty good prof. She usually has you do a lot of "busy work" that most chem profs won't assign like quizzes/online stuff all the time through blackboard. I haven't personally taken her...

  3. Wayne State University

    WayneStateKatie replied to SillyRabbit's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Unfortunately 1030 does have to be completed for your application to be considered at WSU. I just double checked the website and it's still a prerequisite. They won't consider your application for...

  4. Wayne State University

    WayneStateKatie replied to SillyRabbit's topic in Michigan Nursing

    If you're taking chem 1000 this winter you're in for a treat because maguire is teaching it! He's an awesome prof. You can sign up to take 1020 without 1000 first though and that would be...

  5. Wayne State University

    WayneStateKatie replied to SillyRabbit's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Hi there! I'm finishing up my first semester in Wayn'es nursing program so the admissions process is still fresh in my mind, and I can answer any questions you may have. All prereqs must be completed...

  6. Working options while in school?

    WayneStateKatie replied to breakinglightx's topic in General Nursing

    Many places you don't need to be 18 to work in the hospital. I know several girls who worked as nurses aides in the hospital while they were still in high school (they were 16). It was great...

  7. Anatomy @ Macomb CC

    WayneStateKatie replied to Sirena922's topic in Michigan Nursing

    No waitlist-- MCC has a competitive admissions nursing program. The only schools that use a wait list are HFCC and Schoolcraft. I can't tell you specifics as I'm not familiar with the application...

  8. Would like some info on getting started.....

    WayneStateKatie replied to pashari's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Hello and welcome to all nurses! Hopefully I can help answer a few of your questions. You mentioned waitlists-- only a few schools use these still. Most have now switched to competitive admissions....

  9. Who Loves Their Nursing School

    WayneStateKatie replied to jpeters84's topic in General Students

    I'm only in my first semester but I really do love my program. My pharm teacher is a phenomenal lecturer and I learn so much from her (she's one of the two authors of Davis' drug guide). I genuinely...

  10. BSN where??

    WayneStateKatie replied to finola's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Yes WSU's nursing program is more difficult to get into than EMU's. This year wayne accepted 48 students. Hundreds applied. They give preference to students who complete all/some of the prereqs at...

  11. Which of these books are beneficial?

    WayneStateKatie replied to Raas4555's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Lehne is what we're using for pharm and it's pretty good. We're also using the Porth patho book and jarvis' health assessment. I really like jarvis and porth is pretty good as far as patho goes (just...

  12. Oakland University (OU) vs Wayne State University (WSU) - BSN

    WayneStateKatie replied to Sadie525's topic in Michigan Nursing

    They're in the process of changing things-- the info I have is from a couple years ago. You probably want to go to an info session to get the most up to date info. As of a few years ago they didn't...

  14. Oakland University (OU) vs Wayne State University (WSU) - BSN

    WayneStateKatie replied to Sadie525's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Sadly the fee was upped this fall but that only applies to certain classes in the college of nursing(mostly ones where they need to secure outside faculty like clinicals or have labs). There is a...

  15. Oakland University (OU) vs Wayne State University (WSU) - BSN

    WayneStateKatie replied to Sadie525's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Hi Sadie! Hopefully I can help you out with a few questions. Wayne admits students once per year for fall start. Oakland has both fall and winter starts. I also believe Oakland takes more students...

  16. Have to take prerequiste first

    WayneStateKatie replied to merge's topic in General Nursing

    Most schools don't start nursing courses in the summer. Most programs are usually fall and many offer January starts as well. I can not tell you if you can start in summer of 2009. I can not tell you...

  17. Have to take prerequiste first

    WayneStateKatie replied to merge's topic in General Nursing

    Some schools do offer a condensed AP1 and AP2 in one semester. You will not find a RN school that will allow you to complete PRErequisite courses at the same time as nursing courses. A prerequisite...

  18. HELP!! Which BSN program? How does licensing work for USA?

    WayneStateKatie replied to MyBSN's topic in General Students

    no, especially with the current nursing shortage. hospitals are happy to have rns and rarely will it matter where you went to school. in employers' eyes a bsn is a bsn (and often times public state...

  20. Working RNs help me please!

    WayneStateKatie posted a topic in Michigan Nursing

    Good evening everyone. I need to interview a working RN for an assignment I have due in a couple weeks. I only know two RNs and they live in Ann Arbor. I'm trying to avoid making the drive if I don't...

  21. how would your school respond if you broke your arm

    WayneStateKatie replied to shann106's topic in General Students

    Mine wouldn't let me in clinicals since we need to be free of restrictions. You're lucky if you only have to sit out a semester-- in my program I'd have to wait a whole year for the course to be...

  22. Something that shocked me

    WayneStateKatie posted a topic in General Students

    Today in class a large group of about 6 boys were sitting in front of me during special topics class. We were doing our group work when I overheard one of them tell the others "I'm not cleaning up...

    WayneStateKatie replied to WayneStateKatie's topic in General Students

    I have no idea! Maybe he thinks his doesn't stink

  24. What Happened after you received you Acceptance Letter?

    WayneStateKatie replied to Sl1011's topic in General Students

    All these things vary very widely from program to program. I received my letter that I was accepted for the fall 2008 class in the second week of june. It didn't really say a whole lot other than I...

  25. Best Route to Become a CRNA

    WayneStateKatie replied to Celicastrtrcr's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Sounds like you've got it pretty much figured out. Once you have your BSN and have a few years of work in adult ICU under your belt you'll be eligible to apply to CRNA programs (these are masters...
