For me it's A&P, because of all the memorizing and such a short time to do it in.

In my experience, loading all your classes into a few days a week is a bad idea. Those days sitting in class for so long get exhausting, and it's harder to stay focused during free days. But, to each their own. It may work well for you.

Two people in my family experience very intense chronic pain. Both are also struggling with under dosing. I'm sorry to hear about your situation, but not at all shocked. Now in terms of being able to empathize, it does shock me somewhat to think that people, particularly nurses, would need to experience it to understand it. Isn't the look in a patient's face and eyes proof enough of what they're going through?!

Unfortunately that's not true for purposes of tuition - but it might be for doing clinicals. Thanks for reminding me, I'll check that out.

I was under the impression that the affiliation between OHSU and the satellite school was more intricate than that, but I'm completely willing to believe that you know better seeing as you're in the program! Thanks for correcting me and sorry to the OP for misinformation.

I think the only way this would be true is if you are already in attendance at a satellite campus and are applying to the program at that campus. For example, I'm currently a student at SOU and if I apply to the SOU program I may be just slightly favored for that program because it adds to the school's retention. But if I apply to the Portland campus, I highly doubt that having been at SOU instead of OSU would make any difference at all - I'm transferring in either way. I hope this helps.

Hello, I've tried to find information about this on my own for a while now but have been unsuccessful, so I'm turning to you guys. Do you have to be a California resident in order to do the clinical portion of BSN programs at all CSUs and UCs? I know of at least one school (Cal State Sacramento) where this is true, but I don't know if this is a state-wide policy or if it depends on the school. Any info would be much appreciated because I'm currently searching for which schools to apply to. Thanks!

Hi everyone, I've been reading these boards for over a year now but just joined :) It seems that relatively few (and with large discrepancies) schools are accredited by the two major institutions (according to what I've read, mostly on this site) NLNAC and CCNE. According to their respective websites, the numbers of accredited bachelors programs in the two states I'm looking at, California and Oregon, are as follows: NLNAC California - 3 schools Oregon - 1 school CCNE California - 28 schools Oregon - 4 schools Why are so few schools NLNAC accredited? And I just want to be sure, it can really be a problem to have attended a school not accredited by one of these, right? I'm just finding it frustrating that some schools I'm interested are not properly accredited, and it's very confusing to figure all of this out. Can anyone give me some advice on what is necessary and/or helpful when looking into schools? Between accreditation, location, and worry about not getting in, there doesn't seem to be enough schools out there!
