Would I be insane to take anatomy and physiology (at IUPUI) at the same time. I am currently admitted there as a non-degree seeking student to get my nursing prereqs. I'm interested in Ivy Tech as well and think I've figured out after my last post th...

Thanks everyone. I wasn't worried about the redness, but it was the swelling. Is this a dumb question (probably), but is swelling different than induration? Can anyone explain the difference? It was swollen bigger than 10 mm, but I guess I just don't...

Someone please tell me I'm imagining here... I have NOT started nursing school yet, so I promise I don't think I know what I'm talking about, but the nurse who read my tb test for a new job at clarian worries me. I had a TB test a couple of years ago...

A few questions if you don't mind! I have a feeling nobody will know, but thought I'd give it a shot! I cannot get a hold of anyone in the nursing dept. at IUPUI so feel kind of clueless right now. Is anyone in this program or have gone through it ...

This is probably a stupid question, but are they in a different category than regular employees? I guess I just assumed that since regular PT and FT workers get tuition reimbursement there that externs would be the same way, but I could totally be wr...

I was under the impression that since Ivy Tech's program (and other ASNs) are associates degrees they could be completed in 2 years. I just got a smack in the face when the Indy RN advisor emailed me back and told me that the nursing courses alone (s...

Just curious if anyone has taken ANP online? How does it work with the lab? I saw one person say they had to order a fetal pig (WTH!?!). It seems a little odd to have a fetal pig in your house, so I was just wondering how exactly this works! ETA: I t...

when applying to Ivy Tech to start taking the pre-reqs, which option do you select in the "Program applying for" section. I see nothing similar to "pre-nursing" or anything. Never mind... figured it out.

Can it be done?? Our problem is that DH and I were planning to have children before I decided to go to nursing school. Now that I've found my career path I'm struggling between feeling like I'm choosing education over children or vice versa. We just ...

Thanks, I just found the course schedule/outline online. I guess I just don't understand why semesters 3 and 4 are part time. That makes no sense to me. Why divide what could be 1 full time semester into 2 part time ones. According to their list, the...

Sorry... just following up to my own message since I don't know how to edit... I am correct in my info that IUPUI doesn't look favorably at Ivy Tech pre-reqs correct? I know it's competitive enough to begin with so I wouldn't want to do anything else...

Thanks, sorry for being one of those annoying posters who asks the same question that's already been asked! I did a search, but I must have been looking for the wrong thing. All I could find were posts about getting pg while in nursing school, posts ...

Thanks, I definitely wouldn't want to attempt that!

Thanks, I have been inquiring about IUPUI's second degree program but it's ridiculously hard to even get an answer from someone. I'm just confused because it affects my prereqs. IUPUI won't take ivy tech prereqs, well they'll take them but look more ...

Anyone know who should I contact at the Ivy Tech Greencastle campus to answer my pre-nursing questions?

I'm so confused! I have a few basic questions that I'm hoping someone can answer for me. I've looked through the other threads and can't find anything. I can't find anything on their site either! - What classes are prerequisites for applying to the p...

How many hours would you say you put in studying outside of class during your nursing courses (prereqs aside)?

Stupid moment... I guess I just wasn't sure what was what and how they actually fit into the schedule! It's overwhelming when you have no idea what you're looking at!

Can anyone tell me what your Ivy Tech schedule is like for just the nursing classes? If/when I get accepted I will already have all of the co requisites. I have NO idea what a weekly schedule is going to be like though. Days of the week, hours, etc. ...

Nah, online tones are hard to tell. Sadly I am extremely bound by cost. I have an undergrad degree already and have near maxed out my undergrad loans. I basically need to get through this will as little money as possible...

I've had a few people tell me that they took a&p 1 and 2 in the same semester at Ivy Tech. According to the website this isn't possible. Anyone do that? It stinks that if I decide to go to Ivy Tech route I will have to sit out (If I get accepted!...

I do "just get that" actually. I've looked into their schedule and days are the best schedule for me. I cannot do evenings. For others that aren't in my place, where would you recommend? I am not familiar with any night or weekend RN programs in cent...

how much study time would you suggest for someone doing this? did you do yours online?

It depends on the program, but in Logan and I heard from others on here about other prgrams doing this too, I finished prereqs in May 08 and was accepted to Fall 08 RN program. Our chair held our apps until final grades were in then made the decision...

Because I have a bachelors degree already I have all of my coreqs done except for 2, which I'll be taking in the fall or spring with A&P. That's what would be pretty stinky about having to wait until Spring to apply! I would literally be doing no...
