  1. Withdrawing before classes start

    Fall 2009 would be a new financial aid year. You would apply for it as early as possible after Jan. 09. Basic financial aid isn't based on grades, just as long as you are passing and in school. The...
  2. It sounds like they are putting you under the microscope because you made a very serious mistake (that was caught) 3 times. They are trying to see what mistakes you are making that aren't being...
  3. Applying to Nursing School

    Try going here: http://www.bon.state.tx.us/nursingeducation/info.html And then scroll down to "Approved Programs" That should lead you to the PDF files of approved LPN and RN
  4. Maybe they are looking for a college level chem course? I bet if you took chemistry and then re-applied it would help your chances of getting
  5. How are you going to Vote - US

    No matter which way you vote, I hope everyone does go out and vote tomorrow. I hate to hear people say they didn't vote or their vote won't matter. Voting is a great way to influence the direction of...
  6. Applying to Nursing School

    It would be helpful to let us know where you are located, so we don't suggest schools that are across the country from you. You could also post this in the forum for your state. (Under the Region tab)...
  7. Got my letter last night.

    Definitely not a no. Wait list means if x number of people can't or don't decide to go through with the program, then you have a spot. Maybe a few people got accepted to multiple places, and they'll...
  8. Anyone used WIA along with Financial Aid?

    At my school's LPN program, WIA is giving every student $1500 throught the course of study. I think it breaks down to $350/semester for Semester 1&2, then $800 for semester 3. They will pay for...
  9. What condition is this?

    My husband's friend just told him that his infant daughter has a rare disease that will cause severe mental and physical abnormalities. She was born with a heart condition that had to be operated on...
  10. What condition is this?

    I feel the same way that you all do. I can't imagine giving up a child because it has a mental disability. But then again, i'm not in their shoes. They already have another child, a little boy, who...
  11. Any WKU Students on here?

    Just hoping everyone there is safe. Please update us on what's going on with the shooting if you know
  12. What are my chances?

    I recommend either retaking classes to bring your grades up or go for LPN, then bridge to RN (assuming you bring the GPA up in LPN school). I'm in the same boat as you- i was irresponsible and didn't...
  13. What condition is this?

    I asked my husband if maybe it was Cornelia Delange and he said that sounds right. Thanks so much Suesquatch! Do you know if children with this syndrome require a lot of treatment? They are giving up...
  14. Smelly co-worker

    Exactly how is she interfering with work? Because people don't like the way she smells? I think personal hygiene is very important, but we have to also be sensitive to other cultures and religions. I...
  15. Better nurse

    I've always been told the C student is usually the better
  16. Smelly co-worker

    I think you shold just ignore it. Imagine how she feels. People are talking about her behind her back and telling management that she smells bad? If it bothers you that much, at Christmas, maybe give...
  17. This Is Not Right!

    Show me where is was "specifically stated" that she wanted someone to do it for a dollar amt. Get your facts straight. And I never said she was making it up. I said that she needs to make sure she is...
  18. This Is Not Right!

    I don't think the suggestions are so much to turn the other cheek, but to proceed with caution. Jumping to conclusions and reporting that she's cheating, when it may turn out these people are...
  19. This Is Not Right!

    Do you have concrete proof she's cheating? You say you saw people hand her 5 pags term papers, but you did the same thing yourself. Maybe they are giving her their old papers to use as an example? It...
  20. I agree that this is true, but it makes no sense. You can never get rid of a student loan. Ever. They can't be dismissed in bankruptcy court. Even private loans. They will follow you until you die,...
  21. How do I prepare?

    I found my flash cards at Amazon, but they also sell them at places like Barnes&Noble. Amazon usually has teh best price
  22. Side rails x 4 and falls

    In my school we are taught that bed rails are restraints that require Dr. orders. The instructors stress the importance of lowering the bed to the lowest level and lowering the bed rails before you...
  23. The Black Cloud

    Maybe you could try going to a therapist. My husband has terrible anxiety issues and doesn't react well to meds. He goes to see someone everyone few weeks when he's having trouble and that helps...
  24. Deal or No Deal - Naughty Nurse

    SharonH- This is a forum for people to post their opinions. I have stated mine. I have not called anyone a name, I have not told anyone their opinion is invalid. I stated my opinion. I'm really not...
  25. Lpn Syllabus!

    LPN programs gerneally aren't a "course". They are an academic program consisting of several courses for 2 or 3 semesters of college. Some programs take 12 months, some take 18 months. The one I am...
