  2. Mesa uniform color

    I only got a brief summary of shedule in my packet, looks like all days, and maybe nothing on friday or the weekend. Will find out more on Jan 12th which is orientation. I was placed in the 2 year...
  3. Moving to Arizonia

    Jobs are tight here too, all over about the same. So many new grads, so few places wanting to take on the expense of training them. There is a waiting list here too, as far as I was told, one way or...
  4. Jobs for New Grads

    I have read so many posts about new nurses not finding jobs, or at the very least not finding the ones they had hoped for. It's this way, pretty much, all over right now. I know it's very...
  5. Mesa uniform color

    Wonderful! Thank you so much for your reply. I will look for those shoes, not a lot of choices here in Casa Grande, so guess the mall up in Chandler would be a good start; and the price is right. Also...
  6. New Student Supplies

    Aug 8th 2008, around 8:53 in the morning. I was told two to three years, so never gave the time stamp too much of a thought. I got in for the spring, according to what i was told, because so many have...
  7. New Student Supplies

    I have been told by a maricopa admin staff member, that I will certainly be in class in 2010. Since school is expensive enough, I want to "collect" as many things now; before the tutition comes due,...

  9. Where are we on MCC waiting list? Stamped 4/08

    Well I'm down for all choices as well, but then so are a lot of the people on the lists. Think about how many finish up the pre's and apply, quite a lot of us. Tons of would be nurses. And that's just...
  10. What should I do!!

    Hi, you know it's hard right now for many of us to know what to do. The economy is very tough. I am fifty-four, and have probably another year to go to get in; I am on the waiting list as well. I...
  11. banner layoffs

    Heath care is. But in a depression, nothing is for sure. And that's what we are sliding into; fast. Experienced nurses, will have much more job security than us new grads. But some of them will lose...
  12. Where are we on MCC waiting list? Stamped 4/08

    Sounds good to me. The coordinator did tell me it could be longer, but so many are dropping, or not getting grants due to the economy. So that could move those of us that can stick it out, up. Right...
  13. Where are we on MCC waiting list? Stamped 4/08

    Yes, thanks, that helps me. Guess I'm free to go and do whatever while I wait. Hopefully they don't start closing down programs anytime soon, have been following the news. Maybe I should give that up....
  14. Where are we on MCC waiting list? Stamped 4/08

    Hi, no idea of where we are. Mine was in Aug o8. I have tried calling several times to try and find this out. I keep getting directed to call someone else, then someone else, then am told; someone...
  15. Yes, stop crying! It will give you nothing but a headache. In is in, however it comes about. All the red tape and shifting around the schools do, doesn't count, for you, getting in and getting to the...
  16. Sounds like their back up plan for an empty chair. Don't know where you are going to school, but wouldn't worry about being an alternate. If you get in, great. Here we wait on a list, and wait and...
  17. Time to celebrate! The wait is over. You know, people get in to other schools, quit, get married, get divorced, move and get pregnant; there could be so many reasons. Sounds like someone turned it...

    You should get a medal for courage. That has to be tough. I have a husband who cooks, cleans and takes care of everything while I am in school. When my kids were little, I took classes but nothing...

    Nurses are coming out of retirement or back into nursing from other jobs. Quite a few of my friends are back on the floor somewhere. Many reasons due to the horrible economy right now. Husband lost...
  22. I have dealt with this all through school. Either they are texting or having extended conversations about last night's date, or the coming weekend, etc. Being an older student; most of the ones...

  24. Starting Nursing Career Later

    I am old enough to be your mom and am now "lady in waiting". Have been on the list for almost a year, with a predicted 3-4 semester wait. Never too old, considering overall health, to begin a new...
  25. Has anybody taken A&P online?

    Hi, our school did not offer cadavers. I took my A & P online and it was fine. The thing I like about online classes is that the class never ends. You can be online 24/7 and go over and over...
