Hi all, I just ran across this older post - I have finished up 1/2 of my program at USF's CNL program. You can find out some more information regarding the CNL role at: http://www.cnlassociation.org/index.php Take care

Hey - I'll answer these questions for everyone to view. Let's see... First semester you start off taking 15 units: Health Assessment (includes Fundamentals) Health Assessment Lab Pathophysiology & Pharmacology Instructional Systems Design Epidemi...

Congratulations to all who have been accepted! :yeah:I'm currently in CNL Cohort 7 and finishing up my first semester at USF. Feel free to write me if you have any questions - I know I had lots when I started !!!

I am just starting nursing school in a few weeks here in the Bay Area, and our Dean of Nursing said that it's true - there are hiring freezes everywhere right now in the Bay. She suggested to look out of this area and you should be able to find a job...

USF does not do interviews for the ME-CNL program; just the application! Hopefully you hear soon. Good luck and let us know!

I'm going the full loan route too. I'll be FT and at $895/unit (first 2 semesters will be 30 units). I had to apply for GradPlus Loans to cover the amount above the Stafford Loans. Yes, I will be debt, but hopefully not for too long afterwards if I w...

Did they remove this requirement??? I noticed it is gone from their web page. It used to be, maybe from here on out it isn't. Hmm..

Let us know if you got in!!!

Good luck! Did you apply to the BSN or MSN program?

Nothing yet! I submitted my updated FAFSA when I received entry (late November), the website says it will take at least 4 weeks once received. You can email the Financial Aid office; if you do - let me know!

Hi FijiIslands! I have also been accepted for the Spring '09 with Duke. Personally I have almost 2.5 years of volunteer experience at the local hospital where I was helping out approximately 4-5 hours/week (not too terribly much), plus do you have y...

Yep, send in your $500 check to reserve your space. I won't be living on campus since I'm a mom of 2 - where do you all currently live? I'm in Pacifica and I'll have about an hour commute. Also, you can find out our schedule (already!) online. Clinic...

Me! Me! I'm starting too! I just got my acceptance letter the beginning of this week! I'm so psyched to be starting this program - I got rejected from both SFSU's & UCSF's master's program since I wasn't very sure on which specialty I wanted to f...

I just passed the CA CNA exam; it is given by ARC (American Red Cross). Contact your nearest facility to see where they will be giving their next test. Good luck!

Congratulations on both of you passing your tests! I'm taking mine on Friday; my last day of skills practice was today!

I'm starting a CNA program at NCP's S. San Francisco program in July. It's a 5 days/week, for 4.2 weeks program. Take a look at it: http://www.ncpvocational.com/ It's about $1200 for the full course and they offer the certification test on site. Let ...

Thanks for all of your advice! I have foot problems due to running and my orthopedic surgeon recommended the Dansko brand. I start my CNA class here in a few weeks! I'll let you know how they hold up.

Hey all! I was really bummed not to get into nursing school this year (applied to 3 programs), but I am still determined to keep applying. I've decided to go ahead and get my CNA. Here in CA it's an 8-week program and I'll be done by October. Questi...

Congratulations! You give me HOPE!!! This was my first year applying, but I am DETERMINED to try again for at least a few more years!

Can you retake it if you withdrawal now? I think it would be better for you, GPA wise to make sure you get better than a C. OTOH, there are many schools (mostly CCs) that only require you to pass with at least a C. It would depend on these two factor...

Hi all! I just found this board and it's awesome! I wish I had had this information a few years back when I was starting all of my pre-req's! Just a quick question - I've still waiting for letters from SFSU's Generic MSN program. Has anyone else hear...

So, I've been rejected. Via the website: "After a careful analysis of the admissions materials you have filed, we regret to inform you that your application for admission to San Francisco State University has been denied admission. An official letter...

I've also received 2 denial letters - and one still out (probably another rejection since most people have already received their acceptances). For those of you who "thought out of the box", what did you do? There's honestly not much more I CAN do.....

I'm still waiting for mine too! I'm hoping - against hope - that it's a positive, but I'm moving on with my life and am going to re-apply next year (though probably not to this program). I'll let everyone know when I get mine too!
