I just finished my first semester at forest park. Some semesters you will jump up by quite a few numbers. I put my name on the list summer of 2009 and was about 221 on the list. I heard a girl in my class say one day she was number 36 on the alternat...

I am in hte program at FP and I bought a laptop for the program. To be honest though I haven't really needed it. You will need to print things off blackboard but thats abotu it. We just started clinicals last week aqnd its not too bad. I was really n...

I am in my first semester of nursing school at FP and I LOVE it! It is so much better than some of the other community college programs. They are very helpful and so far its been hectic but worth it! I know it seems like you have so long to wait but ...

I put my name on the list at FP and Meremac back in July of 2009. I just got my acceptance letter for FP this past month for spring 2011. I think the wait will be worth if now that I realize the amount of money I am saving. I think the wait list may ...

I just received my acceptance letter for FP abotu 2 weeks ago. I put my name on the list at FP and Meremac in mid July of 2009. When I started I was number 221 at forest park and number 197 at Meremac. For some reason it went quicker at FP but I did ...

I've had the same problem. I have been applying for PCT jobs for over a year now and don't even get a call back. I don't know if they still are but i know a lot of hospitals were on hiring freezes for anything not deemed necessary to hire for at the ...

i was just wondering if any of you were on the waiting list at any of the st louis cc schools. i put my name on the list last july and meremac sent me a letter telling me my number after the fall class but forest park was only through spring of this ...

ok thats makes sense! Thanks a lot! BTW did you get that many updates on where you were on the list because you requested it or was it sent to you because you were so close? the reason I ask is because I don't remember but i think the last letter i r...

Congrats! what month did you apply?

I have been thinking about applying tothe BSN programs at these school instead of waiting for a spot a one of the ST Louis Community Colleges. Anyone ever applied to them and what steps did you take? I have my applications ready to be mailed but not ...

what type of college were they refering to? Do you not have any college credits or any prereq classes done? I find it odd they said that!

I am also wanting to apply fto Chamberlain probably, spring 2011 but was wondering a few things. Could anyone tell me how you apply? I have turned in my application along with my fee but was wondering, am i supposed to meet with an admissions rep? An...

sorry i mean starting IV lines. When i was in the program in 2008, our lab time was only used to test outs. There was never a specificteacher in their every time that week to teach us what we needed to know. Everything had to be done on your own time...

Unfortunately I know exactly how this school abuses their power. I don't know everything for a fact but some of the things that happened to me at this school have be rediculous and that goes for not only the programs but the schools themselves. I was...

I agree that nurses need to make life threatening decisions, but that does not mean that I person should be failed out when tthe school doesn't even help them study for test outs. I can assure you that I understand the RN program works differently th...

yeah i would call them on monday. My friend just entered the program a few weeks ago or something like that. lol But they did the same thing to her. She shadowed the person around and then was asked if it was something she was still interested in. I ...

i agree about the LPN school at SCC. This is, if you have experience in the medical field, you probably would do fine. Their program starts in january and i went in december 14th and they told me to come back after the new year and take my test. I st...

i have. The admissions process in general si rediculous. Although this doesn't have anything to do with the quality of the program, it is a big comlaint of people at the school. Program wise here is my vent: They will flunk people out that feel will ...

exactly jillybean! that is how i feel! If they can't take the time to help me out when i am completely lost on the process, then why even waste my time and money. Especially since the chances of you graduating are only like what? 60-75%? Plus if you ...

Just wondering if anyone on here knows how many students the STLCC programs take. I don't know if all three take the same amount of people or different because i know some have classes every semester and others only have classes once a year. Any info...

thanks for all the info! I applied to Forest Park in July and when i received my number I was number 223 on the list. Whether or not this included the people that were going to be attending in August i don't know. Either way the wait seems alot highe...

Although i have never personally taken the program, when in clinicals my instructor had just graduated from there. At least in STL Chamberlain nursing are normally always hired, it is a bachelors program. The instructor was able to find a job no prob...

I don't think something like that is worth the money. You will never make enough money to really be able to make it worth it. I also have a friend who is doing that same as Angie. She is taking the classes through the hospital. I wouldn't spend the m...

I don't think it has to much to do with the changes once you are in the program. They tend to change the way you apply is what we are saying. Some people love the program, others hate it. When i spoke to an advisor it wasn't that they didn't want to ...

oh yeah i agree that they have shaky ethics. I started the LPN program there and ended up being failed out over something really stupid. They do not teach you in labs, but expect you to teach yourself and pass the test on the first or second try. In ...
