  1. Community College of Philadelphia Nursing Program

    OneDayAttaTime replied to RazorCandy's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    It is a lot of work, lol...but the prereqs are just the beginning! You don't have to take Spanish as your humanities requirement--a lot of people want to take Spanish as being bilingual looks great...

  2. Abington Dixon SON : Waiting for my letter

    OneDayAttaTime replied to loveland's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Well I already work at CHOP, so I already got a foot in there--so I'm hoping that won't be a problem lol. But who knows--we may get in LSU and raise the bar! :pumpiron: Maybe they will get their NLN...

  3. Abington Dixon SON : Waiting for my letter

    OneDayAttaTime replied to loveland's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Exactly! Trust me, I am still sick about giving up my spot at Abington--I know it's a great program and they're NCLEX pass rate has consistently been in the 90's. But I really, really, really...

  4. Abington Dixon SON : Waiting for my letter

    OneDayAttaTime replied to loveland's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Actually, I'm trying not to worry to much about that. Nursing school is what you make of it. I think LSU's poorer NCLEX pass rate is due to the fact that they don't have an integrated NCLEX review...

  5. Community College of Philadelphia Nursing Program

    OneDayAttaTime replied to RazorCandy's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Yes CCP has a very good program...they've been a Center of Excellance for awhile. Even people who are not local are trying to get in which makes it that much more competitive. As far as the AHT exam,...

  6. Community College of Philadelphia Nursing Program

    OneDayAttaTime replied to RazorCandy's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    No problem. I was accepted at CCP but declined their offer. No I'm not a nurse yet, I'll be a junior at LSU. I'm in their BSN program...I'll graduate after the end of fall

  7. Community College of Philadelphia Nursing Program

    OneDayAttaTime replied to RazorCandy's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    You don't need ENG 101 & 102 to apply--though you will take them during the program. My recommendation is to take whatever you can now--it will lessen your load later. Good

  8. Community College of Philadelphia Nursing Program

    OneDayAttaTime replied to RazorCandy's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    The prerequisite courses for applying to the nursing program include: 1. High school Biology or its equivalent (Biology 106 or 101)* 2. High school Chemistry or its equivalent (Chemistry...

    OneDayAttaTime replied to loveland's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Well at least you have the sciences pretty much out of the way--that always helps. Good luck with

  10. Community College of Philadelphia Nursing Program

    OneDayAttaTime replied to RazorCandy's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I was accepted to CCP's nursing program (but decided not to accept) so I can help you out. CCP operates on a point system...you get up to 3 points for (1) gpa, (2) score on their pre-nursing...

  11. Abington Dixon SON : Waiting for my letter

    OneDayAttaTime replied to loveland's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Your overall science needs to be a 3.0. I took micro awhile ago at Temple and got a C+--so obviously that didn't hold me back--but I also have an A in all the other sciences. It's really up to you...

  12. Abington Dixon SON : Waiting for my letter

    OneDayAttaTime replied to loveland's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    No, I don't have to pay anything out of pocket. The refund I mentioned is when you are awarded more FA than you need and they send you a check for the overage. Which I usually use for other expenses...

  13. Abington Dixon SON : Waiting for my letter

    OneDayAttaTime replied to loveland's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    LSU actually doesn't cost as much as you would think. Remember--it's a PART-TIME eve/weekend program...so you're not paying that crazy fulltime day tuition...I got a full financial package from LSU,...

  14. Abington Dixon SON : Waiting for my letter

    OneDayAttaTime replied to loveland's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    That's exactly why I chose LSU over Abington--I have to continue working myself. But with the ACHIEVE program I'll be getting my BSN and it's an eve/weekend

  15. Abington Dixon SON : Waiting for my letter

    OneDayAttaTime replied to loveland's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Yes, I'm going to LSU--Main campus. I gave up the Abington spot b/c I just couldn't wrap my head around going to school for 2 yrs and just getting a diploma, when I could go for an extra semester and...

  16. Abington Dixon SON : Waiting for my letter

    OneDayAttaTime replied to loveland's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Prncesslaur--they would/provisionally accept you. I was accepted to "pre-achieve" last year until I finished my prereqs--which I decided to stay and take at CCP b/c it was cheaper. I'd say go for...

  17. Abington Dixon SON : Waiting for my letter

    OneDayAttaTime replied to loveland's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I believe LSU has a cohort that starts in Jan/Spring if you could squeeze into that--only catch is that it's at Bucks campus and not Main. Good luck with all of your

  18. TEAS EXAM: I failed...Anyone take it with some advice?

    OneDayAttaTime replied to karenroxx's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I'm going to the ACHIEVE BSN program at La

  19. Abington Dixon SON : Waiting for my letter

    OneDayAttaTime replied to loveland's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Almost everyone does...so I would just plan on getting one. I graduated from high school in 1999 and not only did I have to produce high school transcripts but one school even made me order my...

    OneDayAttaTime replied to loveland's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I just gave up my spot at Abington...I hope one of you get a call

  22. LaSalle Achieve Program

    OneDayAttaTime replied to baglady215's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I don't think so...they program starts after you gave two years of general ed...the last two years are all of their nursing courses--you most likely will not be able to transfer other school's nsg...

  23. Need a non-certified private loan ASAP

    OneDayAttaTime replied to OneDayAttaTime's topic in General Students

    *sighs* well that doesn't sound encouraging...what about Think Student Loans...they're supposed to disburse straight to you also...but it looks like I'm going to have to try for a regular loan. I'd...

  24. Need a non-certified private loan ASAP

    OneDayAttaTime replied to OneDayAttaTime's topic in General Students

    My school does not offer the book credit (tried that already as my old school did)...the financial aid office recommends charging everything to a credit card and paying it back once we get our refund...

  25. Need a non-certified private loan ASAP

    OneDayAttaTime replied to OneDayAttaTime's topic in General Students

    Thanks for your responses. I used to belong to a credit union but am no longer active (it was actually my dad's credit union for his job so I was signed up too)...I wish I was though... Wells Fargo...
