  1. Hi Katie, I was just wondering if you did the externship? I'm also in an accelerated BSN and we do not have a summer break. The hospital that I'm interested in has a summer externship, but you work...
  2. How do you pay for school?

    I pay for school with the student loans, always have a balance owed because even the loans aren't really enough (private accelerated program) and I get the GI bill (former military) which lets us get...
  3. National University San Diego

    You can look at National's Online catalog for the breaks... they are the same for nursing as the rest of the school. But basically you get 2 weeks for Christmas, 1 week for Spring break, 1 week for...
  4. National University San Diego

    I am in the evening (cohort 19) and although our theory is always evening, like somebody said, the clinicals are whenever. For med-surg 1 I had Monday 7-7 hospital, Tuesday 8:30-4pm simulation lab at...
  5. Nurse externship from Palomar pomerado

    Hi! I was just wondering if you were able to get this externship? If so, would you be able to pass along any good information for anybody looking to get this type of internship? I am a BSN student...
  6. Hi everbody, I am currently in nursing school at National University in San Diego. I will graduate May 2011. I do not have any hospital experience and I would really like to have something other...
  7. Thanks for the responses. We don't have a summer break since our program is accelerated so it makes it hard since we can't do a summer internship or anything like that. I'm still thinking about...
  8. National University San Diego

    I think when we say "teach yourself" we more mean you have to do a lot of studying. They go over a ppt in class and are very helpful with any questions, but like pretty in pink said, there is so much...
  9. National University San Diego

    That's great that you are getting hospital experience. I don't have any, but I think it would be helpful, if only for the patient interaction. I do like the classes, but like anywhere I've had some...
  10. National University San Diego

    Hi twilight, I'm in cohort 19 (started in July). We are now in our 3rd class (Fundamentals) and we go to Med-Surg the last week in Oct. A typical week seems to be 3 days a week in something, class,...
  11. National University San Diego

    Hi Angie or anybody else who may know... I'm looking at all the books we need to buy for Health Assessment (I'll be in the July cohort) and I'm a little confused. It looks like we need 2 Physical...
  12. Hi fellow soon to be nursing students! I just thought I'd start this thread so we can help each other out and maybe get to know one another. Obviously, from the title, I start in July, National...
  13. National University San Diego

    Hi, unfortunately, under the new regulations, you actually do have to have all of your prereqs before you can apply. This is recent, just started Aug or Sep 08. I was accepted into the July 09...
  14. National University July 09 cohort

    Also, you probably already have read it, but there is another thread that has been ongoing forever where some April students are talking about what they are doing. You may want to check it out if you...
  15. National University July 09 cohort

    My understanding was that the program came out to about $40K, but that included everything, tuition, books, uniforms... don't know exactly we will have to pay though... class by class or some other...
  16. National University July 09 cohort

    Unfortunately, I don't know much about the actual work... just that it's a lot! =) My friend said that the first class is very intense and difficult, but the 2nd class gets a little more manageable....
  17. National University July 09 cohort

    Hi Angie! My name is Amy and I'm also married with a 16 month old son. Congrats on your newborn. It seems to be difficult to find out much about National's nursing program, but I have a few friends...
  18. National University San Diego

    I was wondering if we were a morning or evening cohort also. My friend started in October and I'm pretty sure she's morning so I think that would mean we would be evening. I'd rather do a morning,...
  19. National University San Diego

    Wow, this thread has been going on for awhile. It's been great though! I just got accepted into NU's July 09 cohort. I applied in August, right before they changed everything and I got my...
