Adviser Jim Ryan can help.

Hi Jenners I am sorry I am not sure about Sallie Mae giving you more money or not but I would get a current credit check. The academic adviser I spoke to at Chamberlain said that one girl thought she had great credit and then was blindsided by some ...

Look at my post all about how the scholarships, loans, and grants work. It is an earlier post but pretty long to write again. Ask if you have any questions after you see it. Good luck!! It sounds like you don't need much. I don't think anyone ca...

Hi Lucky. You have a good GPA and that should get you in. No adviser will tell you for sure. The adviser you talked to doesn't even make the decision. He just knows what you need for a good chance. I do have a question. Does your university offe...

Good you don't have a degree because you will most likely be eligible for Federal grants and scholarships. All that money you don't ever have to pay back. You will for sure get loans and most likely you will get subsidized loans. That means you do...

Working the FAFSA is easy to do on the computer these days. You need your last tax forms. Chamberlain will find out how much you get in about 5 days. If you already have a degree you are not eligible for federal grants or scholarships. Also the a...

Only accredited because they changed to a pre-bachelor program. you aren't done when you finish the ADN, you need to complete the BSN to have it accredited. The phone number is on the website to get further information. The LPN program is accredit...

Just to add, COD's RN program hasn't been accredited for the last 5 years so they are working on getting it but now they call it a pre-bachelor program and after you complete the 2 years, you get your BSN there but your degree would be from Northern ...

No problem. All A's in all pre reqs but can't remember PAX score but guess it wasn't that good. I did get a 92.7% on the HESI A2 at Chamberlain. There was physics on the PAX and I never took it. I do know that the LPN is different. I would give ...

I got on the ADN alternate list. They were looking at your PAX score to decide if they would pick you out. I also had to take the CNA class and they allowed me to take the first nursing class and THEN decide. I decided no once I found out they are...

Hi nursetobeswife Chamberlain in Addison has a BSN program. It does include the prereqs. If he already has an assoc. in science he probably has some of the classes covered already. It is a 3 year program if you have nothing done yet. It would tak...

Thanks for answering, hiddencatRN It is an accelerated BSN program. You don't need any prereqs. They offer all of them. No summers off. I won't have to be there the full 3 years but there were a lot of my arts classes they wouldn't take. They hav...

Hi. I just got accepted in nursing school to get my BSN. It is an accelerated program do be completed in 3 years. I have taken some of the courses already at my community college but I do have more of the general education courses left to take. I...

Hi, I was hoping some nursing students could give me a little information. Thank you again for any help. I appreciate it so much. I have waited so long to get to this point and now I am just plain nervous. Lisa

I never took SATs or ACTs, just went to junior college and transferred and got a BA. They said it was not needed so I am guessing no.

Congrats!!!

I know someone with a 3.5 GPA from her bachelor's degree and a 4.0 in all the ADN prereqs and got on the waiting list. It is all about the new PAX entrance exam. You need a certain score and there is quite a bit of physics on it. Good luck.

Boy do I agree with you completely. I have been in science classes at a community college where a girl had to leave and asked if someone could take notes for her and no one wanted to. I was in another lab or I would have because I just feel we are ...

That sounds good, I am hoping to get it done in 2 years too. I was a little annoyed because my math was the same class basically but they won't take it. I really didn't want to take that again. The rest of the gen eds should be basically done. I ...

They don't use your high school GPA at all. They just want to know you graduated high school. But yes, no physics. They use a mathematical formula for how well you did on the test. I believe English counts more. Those scores are good and I have ...

Hi, had a friend that went to Lewis and loved it. But I got into Chamberlain last year and turned them down until I got more of the science in from a community college. I think you have a better chance than he knows. he's my counselor too. Keep t...

i know it's easier to get in a private school than a community college. I have a 4.0 in my community college classes they want and got on waiting list A. I have about a 3.4 and a 92.7 HESI at Chamberlain and got in. Did your adviser say to write a...

I applied and got in last year but changed mind until I had some more prereqs done but if I remember correctly it took a couple months to find out. Do you know your GPA and HESI score??

All that sounds just like my community college, power points and not really needing to be there. Got on alternate list with a BA and a 3.4-3.5. They treated us like garbage. The school was cheapo and you could tell. The teachers are ****** becaus...

KSPAZ, I think you are going to be okay. I was accepted last year and turned them down because so many of my BA classes weren't accepted. I took a year to take the science classes. I was going to take the HESI again and go for the summer. Then I d...
