1. CCD discontinues ADN nursing program.

   dddduncan replied to B_OTT's topic in Colorado

   That's certainly something to think about, thank you! My hurdle with CU is that some of my required pre-requisites have expired because they're too old (Stats, ENG 122, PSY 100, SOC 100). So... CU is at the bottom of my list, simply because I woul...

2. CCD discontinues ADN nursing program.

   dddduncan replied to B_OTT's topic in Colorado

   Ms.Dre22, How is the CCA "pathways" program structured? Do you have to take ALL of your pre-requisite classes at CCA and then you're guaranteed (more or less) entry to UCD (Granted you met all of the GPA requirements and took the needed classes fo...

3. CCD discontinues ADN nursing program.

   dddduncan replied to B_OTT's topic in Colorado

   Oh Snarf, I am so sorry!! So, what is causing all of this? Years ago, when I embarked on this journey, all I heard about was the "nursing shortage". I thought for sure that there would be many options for schools & programs, and job options u...

4. CCD discontinues ADN nursing program.

   dddduncan replied to B_OTT's topic in Colorado

   Wow-- you guys are amazing. You're so helpful and knowledgable. THANK YOU! The ability to do the upper division & Ethics class(es) after being accepted to the program makes a big difference. I don't feel like I've hit three completely dead en...

5. CCD discontinues ADN nursing program.

   dddduncan replied to B_OTT's topic in Colorado

   Thank you, Sand Dollar. Let me clarify about my GPA. I have a 4.0 for my science pre-requisite GPA. In the last 3 years, I only got one B, which was in Algebra (which Regis doesn't need me to have). However, if you look at my GPA from back in 200...

   dddduncan replied to B_OTT's topic in Colorado

   Summit--- Thank you! This is very helpful information. I didn't realize that I could take some of those classes after being admitted into the program. That's good to hear! Just to clarify, does that mean that I can get accepted into the Nursing p...

7. CCD discontinues ADN nursing program.

   dddduncan replied to B_OTT's topic in Colorado

   Wow- I wonder if the "Pathway to BSN" program that CCD is building, has something to do with the traditional BSN program that Metro is rumored to be creating. This scenario would be the answer to my prayers. I'm now looking into BSN programs (not...

   dddduncan replied to B_OTT's topic in Colorado

   Does anyone know of any other BSN programs IN Denver, aside from Regis, CU and DSN? The one that Metro has is a bridge from ADN to BSN. I don't want to move!

   dddduncan replied to B_OTT's topic in Colorado

   I'm in the same boat. I applied. Was told that they were postponing the decision deadline for three weeks, and then received that same letter on Friday. I'm so upset. The BSN programs in Denver don't fit my situation. My plan was to apply to CC...

11. Pre Nursing: CCD Pathophysiology online?

    dddduncan replied to dddduncan's topic in Colorado

    Thanks so much! Are you taking this through Community College of Denver? I'm not sure what CCC online is. Obviously, class formats will be a little different depending on which school you're taking the class through.

12. Pre Nursing: CCD Pathophysiology online?

    dddduncan posted a topic in Colorado

    I'm getting ready to apply to Community College of Denver Nursing Program (ADN). In the interim, I'm thinking about taking BIO 216 (Pathophysiology). They offer it online and I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with this. I heard throug...

13. My dream is turning out to be a nightmare!

    dddduncan replied to dddduncan's topic in Colorado

    Thanks for the advice! I do not have a previous bachelors. I have an Associates Degree (arts & sciences) from a community college (Front Range) that I received about 8 years ago. I remember looking into Regis, and realizing (as was a similar cas...

14. My dream is turning out to be a nightmare!

    dddduncan posted a topic in Colorado

    My dream/goal is to be a nurse. It would be a great accomplishment for me if I could get a Bachelors in Nursing. However--- My plan of attending Denver School of Nursing is somewhat shot--- just due to financing. You're not really supposed to wor...

15. Which is the best route to take for my BSN?

    dddduncan replied to dddduncan's topic in Colorado

    I have excluded UCD (University of Colorado at Denver) from my options, because they have strict limitations on how old your pre-requisites can be. That means that I would have to re-take about 8 classes that I took when I got my Associates of Arts...
