Congrats on getting in kasey! I am in block 1 at MCC right now and I love it! I actually had Mesa as my only choice because i had heard so many good things about the program. It's a TON of reading and information so be prepared to study ALL the time....

I got accepted into Mesa CC....thanks for all of the info. I will have to take a look at what is on there but that sounds like a pretty good bundle of programs!

hi sweetsmuckers, I also have the blackberry storm and will be starting nursing school this fall. I have been looking at some of the programs that skyscape has...do you think the $179 is worth it to download the nursing constellation plus?? Also, I ...

thanks for the insight about block 1 futurern3487!! i am soo excited to start in august! good luck in block 2

I was just wondering if anyone knew.... Can you get a job as a CNA or a tech (or a similar type job) after your first semester in nursing school? Or do you actually have to get certified as a CNA to get a job? I know at CHW you can apply for an exter...

mxems, do you know specifically which immunizations we need to have?

If you can afford to take an extra class, I would definately recommend taking patho. while you wait to get into NS. It's definately good information to learn!

Hi sassiebaz, The wait for everyone who applied before 2008 was pretty long, but now since you only need a few classes for your pre-reqs you can apply and then while you are waiting, you can finish the co-reqs while you wait. So I guess the wait won'...

Hey! I got into the Mesa CC 4 semester program today. My datestamp was oct. 22, 2007 8:01:29am. It was actually my only choice. :)

Isn't it the greatest feeling EVER?!? I also thought this day would never come! KMM, we will definately have to keep in touch and meet up before class starts, I'm so happy we will be going together! The next 5 months is gonna go by so slow....:yawn:h...

YAYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!! I GOT IN!! To Mesa!! I only put one choice and I got it!!!!! I'm so happy you got in too KMM! We will be seeing each other at mesa in the fall!!! Wooohooo for us!!!!:D:D

I am so nervous! I hope they finish soon!

I can't wait 'til tomorrow!! Good Luck to everyone hoping to be placed!!! :heartbeat

HiCalbrunette, The hospitals that i know of that hire nurse externs are Banner and CHW. Banner will hire externs after you complete the second block of nursing school and the CHW hospitals wire hire after the first block. Hope that helps!:) Oh, and t...

Hey KMM03, I am not sure what I am going to put as my other choices...I really don't want to put other choices because I live out in Gilbert near Queen Creek and even Mesa will be somewhat of a commute for me. I was going to put Chandler Gilbert as m...

Hi Chechy, Even though you don't have your application in yet, you can still see what the choices are for fall. here is the website... http://nursing.maricopa.edu/ and then just click on application status to see the choices.

I was thinking about that too.....I'm pretty sure they go down the list of deferrals first, and as long as they are still wanting a spot and as long as one of their choices are still open, they will get placed. But in an extreme case, some of the def...

...and it also looks like there are about 100 less spots open to the public than are normally open for fall semester (I think normally it is about 500) so I guess they are cutting back as well. Make sure you guys affirm your interest too on your stat...

Choices are finally updated!!!! YaY! Only 2 1/2 weeks until placement!!!! I can't wait:D

Hey everyone, I will hopefully be starting nursing school this august and was thinking about going to RSAA during the summer to get my CNA certification. I was hoping to have this so I could work part time during school and to get some experience in ...

hi studentnurse777, How is the program going at RSAA? I decided to take to 3 week day course to get it over with faster. I think I am going to do the july class and then start nursing school in august (hopefully!) That's great that you are trying for...

Hey KMM, I guess I can deal with parking as long as I get into a good program. I had a customer the other day that was a student wearing MCC scrubs and I asked him about the program there...he was in his first semester and he said he absolutely loves...

Hey kmm03, I am taking patho at the williams campus. I was actually going to take it at mcc so I could see what the campus was like for nursing scho ol (hopefully) but I live in gilbert so it was right next to my house... I really like the class thou...

Hey kmm03, Yeah I feel your pain in all this waiting. I am taking patho. Right now to waste time which I'm glad I did. Hopefully choices will be up soon so we can all stop going crazy!

Hey boogs.... I am guessing that unless you can move the trip to another time, you may consider deferring. September would only be the second month so I'm sure you would be missing way too much information... You've already waited this long do you re...
