Lhans333 MSN, RN

Hi @alliejanota, yes I did enter the program back in August 19. I will be finished 1 year from now. My MSN was from WGU and Duq did not accept the transfer of the "three Ps" from there, so I had to repeat those classes. Anyone coming from an MSN pr...

Hey everyone, I'm hoping someone out there may be starting the same program or is currently an FNP student at Duquesne. I'm starting their post MSN program in Fall 2019 and there are very little current reviews about this program. If anyone in the...

Hi @sweetsadie, I found their application process to be easier and more user friendly than most others. The advisor I worked with was great, very responsive and always returned calls/emails. The approval came 2 days after all my documents were in and...

Hi, I did my MSN @WGU and I'm starting a post MSN @Duquesne Univ in Fall. I was also accepted to other universities so it's not a big deal. If you want to go on to a DNP, you may want to see if there are higher GPA requirements for your undergrad/gr...

Hi, I'm one of the recent October grads from the Glendale ABSN program (and yes...a guinea pig to say the least). Let me know if you have questions and I will try to answer them...

Ok, I took a look at what I have and I didn't save much from 1st semester. I'm also pretty sure for liability reasons that I can't post anything specific from exams, even if I remembered anything. I can try to point you in the right direction thoug...

Ok, I've got some "last weekend of freedom" errands to run and I will log on again tonight and post what I can find

Sorry, that can make things difficult when you are used to working and counting on certain people. I will see if I can drum up some hints and guidelines for Semester 3. Which classes?

Hmm, yeah there was a certain person who tried to break up our "cliques" last semester.....nothing ended up changing. So what did they do? Why can't you work with your normal groups?

Oh sorry, I just realized you were asking about the e-books and the quizzes. Yes, we used the e-books for the quizzes. It's always best to read the material before taking the quizzes, since the idea is to test your knowledge, but looking something ...

Yeah, it's actually kind of funny. I could probably sell most all of my books as new and not used. I didn't even open half of them since the e-book package is such a fantastic tool. I'd say I used the e-books about 90% of the time since I started O...

I believe the San Diego Angel is set up a little differently than Glendale, so I can't give you much advice on how to find your calendar information. Our community module was always pretty much empty with no info, and definitely not a calendar. Ang...

Hmmm, there was a lot of talk in Glendale about changing the program around (something like moving Pharm to 1st semester and moving Intro to Prof Nursing to the intersession with Disability), but as far as I know the clinical schedule remains the sam...

I don't know the whole story. Something like.....The 16 students in the 1st semester co-hort didn't all buy the e-book package, but the students who bought did got books that were updated editions with altered content. Apparently enough to make a b...

The books (if you buy them new or with the package) do have extra features on CD-ROM that will assist your learning. For instance, in 2nd semester you will take Family Focus (all about maternal-newborn, reproduction, pregnancy and childbirth) and th...

Sure...back to studying now, but it looks like I get notifications on my e-mail when anyone responds to my posts, so I'll try to answer any questions as I can. Good luck!

Yeah, I wasn't too keen on buying pants online, so I waited until I felt comfortable that the Landau pants I bought from ACE were the right size then I bought the cargo version online. For the first semester, it's really not necessary to have the ca...

Hmmm, I think I ordered them from a website that sold Landau because I was concerned that if it was another brand I wouldn't be allowed to wear them, but another student bought Dickies brand scrubs (in the color closest to wine) and had the patch put...

Totally....best thing each of us in my class bought. I think I spent the same amount. You can cut and paste from it which make study guides super quick to create. I also recommend purchasing a pair of wine colored scrub pants with cargo pockets on...

Hi LaLaws, I can probably shed a little light on your e-book problem. I'm a Glendale OU student from the very 1st co-hort and super busy so I have only posted here a few times, many months ago. I'm on Allnurses all the time now searching for any ne...

We don't have to be at the hospital and the school site more than 3 to 4 times a week (during clinicals) so commuting isn't horrible. Most of us live between 1 and 2 hours away from Glendale. It's do-able. I purchased the e-books and it was defini...

Hi sorry about the delay! The first semester is coming to an end and we have 2 weeks of final exams coming up, so I don't stay on top of non-school related e-mails very well . I'm sure you have had most of your questions answered by staff and I bel...

Hi Heather, we are wrapping up our lab for the day, so I have time to reply right now. Let's see if I can answer some of your questions (you are asking some of the same ones I asked as well! I have a child, so knowing my schedule was imperative!) K...

This program is evolving and changing every week for us. My class is the first class to go through this program, and we are "guinea pigs" (for lack of better words). Glendale Adventist is a great hospital and a fabulous location for our clinicals. ...

Hi everyone, I'm a current OU student at Glendale Adventist. I had a couple minutes, which I can certainly tell you is VERY rare in this program. I had endless questions about this program before I started, so I'm happy to shed some light on this p...
