I'm in the evening class also. I can't register yet until I pass this class...so keeping my fingers crossed.

Hey, I'm taking Med Admin for the first time next week also. Hope to see you there, maybe we can study together??

Hey, just wanted to know if you heard anything. I know it's late, but I just received my letter in the mail today for the advanced standing spots. I actually applied last year, was told no because I didn't have med adminstration so I just forgot al...

I'm in South Jersey, right near the bridge. I'm one class in so far. The only thing really holding me back is $$$. Let me know if you want or need a study buddy!

Hi, I'm an LPN looking to apply to BCC for the Fall of 2011. The people that I have spoken to at the school advised me that I would have the opportunity to skip Fundamentals and go into Nursing of Families which would make it easier to get in since ...

I graduated about a year ago and was in the exact same boat. I started by finding a new agency to take a chance on me. Then, I just applied EVERYWHERE. I finally got a part time job on a sub acute unit of all places and once I had a job, finding a...

Hi All! This thread has motivated me to register for my first exam. I graduated as an LPN about a year ago and I have been stalking similar threads since then, putting it off due to financial reasons. But what better way to earn more money than to...

What has helped me the most was coming in a little early and flaging all of my blood sugars in my MAR so that I can knock those out first. It's going to be hard in the beginning until you get to know your residents. Also don't be afraid to ask ques...

snowflakeprincess, if you don't mind can you pm me the name of your facilty? Thanks!

I'm a recent LPN grad with very little experience. I've been sending my resume out to every facility that has a website. I was wondering if anyone knew of any facilities that may be hiring. I'm willing to commute to the suburbs if necessary, I jus...

I'm in the process of endorsing from PA into NJ and I sent off my application on the 27th of Jan. I received my finger print letter today (suprisingly). I have my appt next Tues to get those done. Do you think the process will be a little faster t...

Hi guys, I am in the process of applying to a bunch of different schools in Jersey and the Philly area and I just wanted to know of different peoples experiences with applying to some of these schools. I already have a B.A. in Sociology from Rutgers...

thanks a bunch!! my school was pretty far out and i didn't want to make the trip if i didn't have to.

I have a few questioins about EC that I was hoping someone could help me out with. I have most if not all of my prereqs already completed from a university. With that being said, do I still need to forward the school a copy of my LPN transcript eve...

I've applied already for Fall 2011. I am so anxious. I applied about a year and a half ago and got discouraged when I was waitlisted due to them not being able to locate my HS transcript. Since then I got my LPN from BCIT which I was hoping would ...

St. Francis awards you your RN diploma so to speak, your ADN will come from Mercer CC after you complete all of the necessary courses. Even if you already have a BA from some place else, not all of your credits will necessarily transfer or the schoo...

I'm in the day program and intense doesn't begin to describe it. I was fired right b/f the beginning of class and it was a blessing in disguise. Granted we do get finished faster, but it is a lot of work. Clinical days for Westampton right now are...

My advise would be to take a trip to Barnes and Noble and browse through the nursing section. If you think you will have trouble with math, brush up on some stuff. If you haven't already had A&P pick up a review book for that so that you can be...

I would definitely recommend a Fundamentals of Nursing preparation book. For myself and many of my classmates Funds was incredibly hard because it's a completely different way of looking at questions. I would take a trip to Barnes and Noble and try...

Your ATI's count as part of your grade??? For my school at the end of each class we take the ATI and based on our profiency level 1, 2, or 3, you get those points added to your final exam grade which is 20% of the class grade. So if you got an 89 f...

I don't go to the program but I've been researching it for after I graduate from LPN school this summer. From what I know it's only a one year program, you need to have already passed your NCLEX-PN, and you have to take a placement test. They are a...

I'm so sorry to hear your story. In the end, only you know what's best for you. My only advise is that you get as much out of the program as possible. From what I hear LT is a lot of self study, just try and go above and beyond what they are teach...

If you want to PM me your email address I can give you all of the info you need, trust me I have tons of helpful info for you!!

Well Congrats PTYME!!! That little postcard means you are in the program!! I don't know why they drag it out, I think they just like to torture you. Just make sure you get your hs transcripts in asap and get the background check done as soon as th...

BCIT does not offer financial aid, but what I did was start saving as soon as I found out I was accepted. The idea of being over 20,000 in debt after graduation from a sub-par school just did/does not sit well with me just for a LPN program that's n...
