    Sand_Dollar replied to Sand_Dollar's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Sand_Dollar replied to orchid09's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Sand_Dollar replied to Highschoolfuturenurs's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks juliaann! We home schooled up until we found this school and then switched because of this great opportunity. I tell her it is an equivalent to a $10k scholarship, don't waste it! She is such a...

    Sand_Dollar replied to Highschoolfuturenurs's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  12. anyone applying to CU for 2010?

    Sand_Dollar replied to Sand_Dollar's topic in Colorado Nursing

    So, does anyone know... should we be on the lookout for a thin or a thick(er) envelope? What will be in it, just a congrats letter or loads of paperwork? Just curious. Luckily spring break is this...

  15. Phi Theta Kappa - Haven't we all been invited?

    Sand_Dollar replied to SDChargersGirl#31's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I'm a PTK Member as well and joined so I can permanently have it on my resume. Any academic accolade as RB2000 says, "looks good". I called our nursing school about the transfer scholarships and they...

  17. Late for Simulation!

    Sand_Dollar replied to ctaylo11's topic in General Students

    It's a sign of respect for the instructor and others in the class (other nurses on a job). It shows you are wanting to be there and care about the class (or your job). It shows you are responsible...

  18. micro and a&p online

    Sand_Dollar replied to renge1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I did mine through ccconline. Both had lab components that you do at home with a lab kit purchased separately. You have to sign up with a parent college and the financial stuff is done through them,...

  20. anyone applying to CU for 2010?

    Sand_Dollar replied to Sand_Dollar's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Nope, no aid letter for me either. I would call the financial aid office Ada324 and ask them what you should do. The # is 303-556-2886 btw, I happened to have it open in another window before I popped...

  23. What did you do when you got rejected?

    Sand_Dollar replied to computer101's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I haven't gotten my letter yet, but I too have pondered the 'what if'. I will be disappointed, but I don't think I'd cry just because its just not how I tend to handle things like that. But, I already...

  25. Online Pre Reqs?

    Sand_Dollar replied to sdwahine's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have done all of mine through ccconline. It's a great education, but if you aren't in Colorado, then it's pricey. It's accredited and classes are not noted as being online on your transcripts. I...
