The students in the program are a variety of ages. There are some new grads in our program and there are people in their 20's, 30's, 40's, and a few in there 50's. It's really not about how old you are, you just have to be 100% dedicated and up for...

The program is tough, I'm not gonna lie. I'm glad I did it in one year though. First semester and third semester are rough and you won't have time for a social life. I didn't at least. But, second semester isn't bad and that helps to break it up ...

Hello future UM accelerated students. I'm graduating with Kim in May. The road ahead is tough, but if you set your mind to it you can do it. Plan on studying every minute, but it's possible. I also have some scrubs, size large. I have 3 sets and...

Do we need to put books on hold at the bookstore or we can just go pick them during orientation?

I also ordered the littmann classic II SE. I ordered mine from steeles.com. I haven't gotten it in the mail yet so hopefully it is nice. Also, about the books...I just got an e-mail from UM with our orientation schedule as well as a list of the bo...

I had a hard time with the laptop situation. I ended up buying the Latitude E46OO from the TPC through UM. That's what the tech guy said the recommend. But, it was a bit expensive.

jerrylundergard...thanks for your post...i'm excited to hear some good news about UM...i'm wondering if you are selling your books...as long as it is the same book and version this year, it would be great for me to buy your books rather then through ...

okay thanks. When did you hear from UM about this? Did they e-mail you or did you notice it on my UM? Let me know what you find out.

yes, I did submit the summer loan request (a long time ago). I also applied for the signature loan through sallie mae. UM has not told me how much federal loans I can have though. So, I am waiting to hear from them. What do you mean UM did not ce...

Hey guys. School is starting soon. I can't believe it! I was wondering if anyone has bought the white leather nursing shoes yet? I got an e-mail last week about it and I'm not sure what shoes to buy. I think they are all kind of ugly to be hones...

Thanks for your help. I'm not sure if I'm going to buy it directly from dell or through the school's tech center. It looks like they recommend the tech center and I'm afraid if I don't buy one they recommend I might have problems. I agree, they sh...

Hi everyone. Has anyone bought a laptop yet? I have an apple so I guess I have to buy a Dell instead...bummer. Anyway, I have been looking on the tpc's site and the dell's are way more expensive then buying directly from Dell. I 'm just wondering...

Hey guys! I have been having ALL the same problems. I have called the financial aid office many times and no one there knows anything about our program or about financial aid. They told me there was no aid as well and that is not correct. We can g...

Hi Linzilou. Congratulations! I graduated in 2004 with a BS in psychology/sociology from Radford University in Virginia. I did consulting for awhile and realized that there is no way I can be at a desk all day. I've been working as a medical assi...

Thanks Roberta. Glad to hear I'm not the only one worried about this stuff. I did apply for the scholarship and recieved an e-mail that they are not awarding any more of them. So, no one should waste there time applying for it. It was kinda frust...

I found a studio apartment on the school's off campus housing website. They have some good stuff on there...if you want to check it out. Good luck apartment hunting.

i haven't gotten anything in the mail about doing a background check. when did you guys receive that? i also got a studio about a mile from campus. I found it on UM's off campus website...there is some reasonable stuff on there if that helps.

oh, okay. i didn't realize the scholarships were rolling. I thought i had read somewhere that you have to interview for it like the first week of classes. did you get the scholarship? I'm really hoping for it b/c otherwise it is a lot of money. ...

Hi there. I'm also starting the accelerated bsn program at UM this summer. I'm having some trouble figuring out financial aid though. The financial aid department says we won't receive any info on how much loans you can get until mid to late april...
