How long was your wait to get into the Gate Way LPN program? I talked to the advisor there and she said there were like 50 people carrying over from last semester and it might be a little bit of a...
I called them last week and they told me March. But you know how it is, the story changes daily. Do you know how to locate the app? I tried to find out how to get to the apps and I couldnt. I want...
Becoming a CNA definitely wont be a fix all. I am currently in a CNA class and there are several people in there who are struggling to find a CNA job. I have not heard of a free program. There are...
I think over analyzing is part of the nursing mentality. We are people who pay attention to detail and dont leave things to chance. :wink2: I was once told that the best place to be during a...
I am attending RSAA now. I am taking the weekend CNA class which I do not recommend. Unless you dont mind spending ten hour days in class. My brain shuts down after like 6 hours so these are really...
Has anyone taken HCC146 medical terminology for healthcare workers? I need this for the EVIT program. I am planning on taking it with Rio Salado online but I am wondering what to expect? How...
So it is getting down to the wire for this semester. Unfortunately I am not doing as well as I would have hoped in BIO 201. I still have two more exams so I am hoping to bring up my grade. I have...

I am taking it at gateway during the week. There is no way I could handel this thru Rio. The last class I took through Rio was a bust and I had to drop it. (I am definitely not an online learner)...
I am considering going into the EVIT LPN program for adults. I wanted to go to Gateway but it seems so sketchy (unorganized and info keeps changing) and I heard the wait was 1.5 years! You need...

For the CNA at EVIT it says that you need Medical terminology. Which class do you need? I see that RIO has these classes but one is a 1 credit class and the other is 3 credits. Which do you need?...

But I wonder if no one can get into school to learn, (the first step) how will there ever be anymore experienced nurses? It is also good to see a nurse who is more concerned about extremely high...
BIO 156 is a pre-req for BIO 201. So unless you took it in high school and it is accepted, then you have to take BIO 156. I tried to bypass it too but was told that since I didnt have it in...

I agree with your reasoning for sure. For example, only a third of the tuition money obtained by ASU is used for the actual school. The state gets the rest to pay for things like the alternative...
I did not have a good experience with Rio Salado. When I tried to take this class I felt like it was twice the work as a "regular" class. The instructor I had was female and she could never...

I wish it was a little later in the day so I could still work. I dont know how I am gonna make it all work. Someone I talked to there said that sometimes they change the hours of the program. Maybe...

chihmom8, Do you already have your CNA? I think I am going to try to get into the CNA class for January. They are more than RSAA but the guy I talked to said they give more hours of education. So...

It is around 8,000 for the LPN program. I think it is only offered for adults at night. They provide education for high school students so I think that is why they do not offer day
I am currently in school taking pre-reqs for the Nursing program. I would like to get a position within a hospital but I have no prior medical experience. By doing this I hope to maybe obtain...

Rhonda, What was the time line for your wait with CAC. I am really considering applying there. I am not a resident of Pinal County but I live close. Have any
Welcome to higher education! (i mean that with the uptmost sarcasm) I feel fo you guys. This is my second degree and it is not unusual for schools to change info, provide misinformation and string...
The LPN Fast Track at gateway requires you to take the HESI and Net. I called today and spoke to an advisor. She also said there was a year and a half wait to get into the LPN
I totally agree. This is something I want to do but since I dont come from a medical background I still wonder, "what is it really like?" There is very little guidance from the schools or assistance...
I have been looking at the requirements on the CAC website. I am wondering if you need to have Chem 130 for the RN program. I know you need it for the Maricopa Community College program. I just...
