Toya, did you try getting a loan through Discover? I was very surprised at how easy they made it for me after all the trouble with other lenders. I would definitely give it a shot if I were you, I saw on your profile that you are 28 - I think the onl...

I am starting a BSN program in a couple weeks, so I can't really say how difficult it is, but from what I've heard and read on here - ADN programs seem to be more difficult because it is a shorter amount of time to learn the same amount of informatio...

I'm from Redding and Shasta College has a crazy long waiting list! Currently I am # 210 on the waitlist and they take 30 people a semester!! But I applied to Several BSN programs and I got into one of them and will be starting in the fall, so I wwill...

Wow, Im sorry I did not mean to post incorrect information at all - I had no idea you could go on without a BSN, that's why i wanted a BSN in the first place lol. However now that I think about it I remember that there is a program at UC San Francisc...

No you cannot apply to an MSN program without a BSN, and Yes it is absolutely required to have a BSN. Have you looked into any Accelerated BSN programs?They are for those with a Bachelor's degree in another field and want to pursue nursing. More than...

I was able to get a loan through Discover after getting rejected from PNC and Wells fargo. However, I have a cosigner. PNC rejected me before i even got to the part to put a cosigner in though, and my dad who is my cosigner has good credit, but not g...

I just read that Chico state will be accepting new transfer students from the North State ONLY. . Im in Shasta County, so i dunno if other counties can .. . http://www.redding.com/news/2009/jul/26/north-state-students-get-chico-state-admissions/

Nicki - Usually after your fafsa is processed it takes 4-6 weeks to hear back from the school. You definitely need to talk to your financial aid office though, because they require you to submit all your w-2s and taxes, as well as your parents if you...

I am having a HELL of a time trying to get a student loan! I have pretty good credit but i still need a cosigner, i was rejected for a student loan through pnc because i have to be currently employed?? how stupid is that?! And my dad was even rejecte...

You are going to come across a lot of people that are going to have the same attitude as your "friend", especially once you get in your prereqs - It seems like many have that ****** attitude that assumes that they are better than you and you will nev...

I took them together, and am so glad i did! At my school they are separate - Anatomy class and Physiology class . . Anatomy was much more memorization and physiology was more concepts. In my opinion, they really complemented eachother - Anatomy gave ...

$266.00 . . . really?? I took the TEAS and it was only $45.00 at a CSU . .that is so strange. What school do u go to? I've heard that many nursing schools are working on incorporating the test into their entrance requirements, and many CCs make their...

Oh man . . i wish i didnt read this thread . LOL. . I wasn't even worried about it until i read this. I don't know if I'd rather expect the worst or just go in blind not knowing what to expect. Geez . .i keep checking to see when someone's gonna say ...

I am moving about 300 miles to attend a BSN program. And i have not even found a place to live yet!! Ahhh!! Im going next weekend to hopefully find a place. . but yes I am very stressed out! Especially since i am waiting for my financial aid to proce...

May I ask what you dislike about being a CNA? And also what appeals to you about being an RN ? I was a PCA, which is very similar to a CNA, and though i cant say that i hated it, it definitely wasn't my cup of tea. I worked in a nursing home and I ca...

To clarify - when i said that "i hope NS tears them apart" I did not mean literally. I meant that i hope that it strips him of this horribly cocky attitude, makes him realize that there is much more to nursing than the money, causes him to rethink hi...

Congratulations on your acceptance! ! I am not going to Chico next semester, but i am from Redding . and I am actually going to be moving to attend Stanislaus State's program in the fall. I just wanted to say Congrats! I applied to Chico last semest...

Hi :) Im starting Nursing School in that fall at Stanislaus State University, its about 2 hours South of Sac. I dont know too much about the program yet, but I have heard nothing but good things about it thus far. I just went to the orientation and g...

Ya, i guess i was a little harsh on him . I just think, as others have mentioned, if you're going to go into a profession for the money, why not go all out and go with the real moneymakers?? I strongly believe that you need to go into a field that yo...

What a disappointing post to read, honest, but disappointing. I will be starting NS in the fall and i dread having to deal with fellow students like this OP - who sounds extremely arrogant and selfish. Even more so, i feel so sorry for the patients t...

I start NS in the fall - and im so worried about this! I gained weight just in prereqs! Ahhh! Anyway my solution for now is working out like crazy and eating really good BEFORE i start NS and hopefully getting into this good habit will help me reliev...

Hi there! So i am patiently (as possible!) waiting to hear back from CSU Stanislaus and Sonoma - Im getting to the point where Im reaaly anxious and nervous - and checking my email and mail 13872194 times a day :) Anyone else out there waiting too? L...

Oh no, Id rather live in Turlock! Its just that there is more AFFORDABLE housing in modesto, but im sure I'll find something. Oh ya about the PDAs, Ive been looking into them, i want one haha, but it seems like we dont really need them until we star...

No i didnt go. . ugh just too far. lol. . im gonna go on july 10th i guess. so lame. . Did you get to register for your classes?? Ya its a pretty boring area, but Id rather live there than modesto for sure. Pretty nice campus though :) Im so excited ...

Ya - I dont think most nursing students can afford 40,000-60,000 for nursing school - lol. At least I know i cant
