I just withdrew from the program. My decision was solely based upon their rising tuition cost. You are required to take your pre-reqs online through Devry if you chose the evening program. They automatically tack on an additional $80 for books (wh...

WDW, I think you might have just solved my dilemma. I've been accepted to STLCC for this fall which will result in me quitting my job which, for me, is almost impossible, financially. I've also been accepted to Barnes and Chamberlain. I would pref...

I attend Chamberlain now (taking a few pre-reqs) and I don't like it for the money. I think if you don't have any problems paying for the education then it may be okay. But, if you need financial assistance, they do not help you (or at least me) at a...

Hello All: I have been accepted to a ASN fulltime-day program (Fall 09) at a Community College and a BSN full-time evening program (Sp 10). I work full-time days and make a decent salary in this tough economy. The ASN is cheaper, less credit hours (1...

Hello All: I also posted this on General Nursing Discussion... I have been accepted to a ASN fulltime-day program (Fall 09) at a Community College and a BSN full-time evening program (Sp 10). I work full-time days and make a decent salary in this tou...

I'm sorry for what you have experienced but it's really hard to read when you're yelling.

Love34, same here. We just gotta make it work. Unfortunately, I have to work and my job won't let me go part time. Anyway, I'll be at Flo this Fall.

I work in the insurance field so I considered getting a degree in accounting (plus, my employer would pay for it). However, I am at my desk as I type, and I am BORED TO DEATH. There is no way I could do be fulfilled in the accounting/insurance/bus...

FYI - STLCC wait list is only about 2 semester. During that time,you could complete most if not all of your pre-reqs. Just something to think about.

I promise not to give up if you don't.

In addition, you do not have clinicals at Forest Park Hospital (probably wouldn't want to). Why? I don't know but I have asked. Honestly, they aren't worth the money, IMO :)

I'm considering joining a Nursing Association but wanted to know what, if any, benefits I would gain from it. I will start nursing school this Fall.

Chamberlain would definitely admit you.

Wow, this thread is making me reconsider nursing school all together. Once I graduate, I will have roughly $55,000 in student loans (I'm a junior). The hope was that I would get some financial help with tuition reimbursement. This is scary.

I will be attending Chamberlain this March. Who's with me?

Question: Are fluids & electrolytes something that is learned is A&P or in actually Nursing School? I remember this section being in my A&P book but we never covered it. Is this something that I am expected to know once I start NS?

I'm actually doing the BSN On-Site program. I'll be registering for classes today. Still have a couple pre-reqs that they require even though I already have about 68 credits . One thing that did **** me off about the school is when I went to the o...

I'll be there in the evening.

I have applied for March and have the A2 test scheduled for 1/22. I, too, have heard good things from grads and current students. The only negative I heard was the technology (computer systems) and the financial aid office. Now, once I'm accepted...

I've been wanting to be a nurse be a nurse for so long now. But, what am I? Nothing but a wife and mother. I wake up; get ready for work; get my son ready for school; go to work at a boring insurance company; pick up my son from school; stop at th...

I do feel that if you are unhappy with your career then that makes you an unhappy person (whether you express that or not). Therefore, I do believe that if I were a registered nurse, I would feel better about myself and would be able to give my fami...

Yes, you (and all of you) are correct. I am thankful that I have a family, home, job, etc. I'm definitely not going into nursing for ONLY the money as I make a decent amount now. Nursing is my calling, my destiny, my life's purpose. Please every...

I am having a really bad morning and you just made me laugh to tears. :chuckle Thank you!!! BTW...my abdomen does as well

Dr ******** at Flo Valley - she was a good teacher but not easy. Very knowledgable and wants you to succeed.
