I recently accepted a job in Home Health, negotiated my pay rate and received a contract to sign. But when I read it I found that during my 90-day orientation period I would be paid 30% less than the rate negotiated. Is this normal? I wrote to my hiring person and haven't heard back yet but I think this should have been clearly stated during negotiations. While I accept that a slightly less hourly rate might be acceptable during training, a 30% decrease seems like a lot for 90 day period. Opinions, advice? Please?

ro 'smom - congratulations!! i guess we ll be classmates. Enjoy this wonderful feeling - i ve been on a non-stop high since i found out.

aha, so that s the way it works. Well, congrats kayyellow, that s so great. I got my letter today too and am starting in the Fall. I m so excited. It s too bad the nursing dept. didnt explain how this all works ahead of time so as not to freak everyone out like this.

well, i guess nobody got any letters today. even though i ve been told i got in, i don t think it will really sink in until i get that letter in my grimy little hands.

ya, mine still said nursing. they said the same thing to me at the number for the nursing dept., but i have a friend in the registrar office and she said i def. got in.

Thank you for the well wishes...It s the BSN on the main campus. I had 4.0 overall and in pre-reqs, and 3/3 co-reqs. I would highly recommend for the multi-cultural experience co-req to possibly work/volunteer with homeless, or AIDS patients. Project Homeless Connect is a good organization to volunteer at. i also volunteered on a nursing floor in a hospital doing unit clerk work, not even direct patient contact, worked up about 150 hours. good luck to you all...

actually, i just found out that it is indeed an acceptance into the Fall 09 nursing program. was told by registrars office it is official - they ll be sending out letters on Monday.

Has anyone gotten a "COngratulations, you ve been accepted to SFSU" message on their application status web page? because I did, and I called a friend in the registery office to ask if it meant i got into the nursing school, or just the university, and she said I got into the nursing school. But just now, when i called the nursing dept., they said it just meant i got into the university. I m banging my head against the wall. I just told a bunch of people i got in and now i m back to square 1 wonder if it s true or not. I thought maybe some of you others had had the same experience. THis is for the BSN program, and I m applying as a Junior, transfer student. THanks for the info
