I often hear doctors refer to it simply as "University" as it is the only university affiliated hospital in the Denver area. HTH!

thanks, alippin!

Hi, just wondering if anyone has received add'l info regarding the orientation on June 2nd? When I picked up my packet a few weeks back, she gave me the impression they'd be sending out details regarding what time it starts, assigned time for student ID, etc. Actually, come to think of it, I don't even know exactly where it takes place. I'll look back through my paperwork, but does anyone know the answers to my questions? thanks much! A

alippin, thank you for calling and reporting back--that is good news! I hadn't yet had a chance to call them--too much to do all of a sudden.

One more question, if anyone knows--when does the summer semester end? The schedule in my packet says classes go from 6/7 to 7/30, but online it says they go until 8/20. I'll call on Monday, but thought I'd check here too in case anyone knows. thanks!

Funny that you all live in Highlands Ranch! You should set up a carpool. I'm in Denver, about 10 minutes from Anshutz, so that will be nice. I got the last spot in the Friday morning lab--almost got stuck in the Friday afternoon session! Does anyone know when tuition is due and if they actually send out a bill in the mail or how that works? Hope everyone is enjoying the weekend--I am trying to motivate myself to study for my A&P II final on Monday.

Thanks to both of you, and I am excited although it still feels somewhat surreal at this point. Classes start one month from today--hard to believe!

Hi everyone, I wanted to start a new thread for those of us entering the CU BSN program this summer. I was just accepted off the call list a couple of days ago and picked up my paperwork yesterday. I'm a little overwhelmed with everything I need to do in the next few weeks and thought I'd start this thread so we could ask questions and share information with one another. I do have a couple of questions right off the bat, if anyone can help me-- 1. if you're a Colorado resident and are using the COF stipend, did you have any problems authorizing it during the registration process? 2. Where did you buy your books? I haven't had a chance yet to research and compare prices. thanks in advance! A.

Hi all, well, I received "the call" today, offering me a spot in the summer start traditional program and of course I accepted! Still somewhat in shock, but very excited. I am meeting with Sue tomorrow to put down my deposit and get all of my materials. I noticed that one of you set up a facebook group--mind if I join you there? still can't believe it! A

thank you both, One1 and SandDollar! I appreciate the feedback. One1--do you recall how much the lab kit was to purchase? Trying to weigh costs since online classes are more expensive. But so much more flexible which is nice. I am currently taking Statistics online through CCA online, and I'm so glad I'm not taking it in a classroom. I don't think I'd be doing well if I didn't have the text to refer to during exams. I still study, but I don't feel like I have to commit everything to memory like you do in a traditional classroom setting. This might be to my advantage w/ chemistry because it is one subject that just doesn't really "click" for me. thanks again!

Hi, has anyone taken basic chemistry (not organic) through the CCC Online option? Wondering if it is a good idea and/or if Regis accepts online science courses. Any insight is appreciated! thanks much! :)

anyone out there who is still waiting for "the call"? I'm becoming discouraged.

wow, congratulations to both of you! So exciting, and a huge relief too I am sure. Great news!! I'm not sure where I heard this, but I think someone mentioned that if someone declines their spot, CU will call people on the call list with similar demographics, which I assume means age, experience, etc. I was thinking if that is true, I may not have a great chance of getting a call. My reasoning is that people my age (38), second career type folk, probably have a family and therefore only applied in-state, therefore less likely to decline in favor of another school. But who knows. I am still keeping my phone with me at all times--it just never rings.

stellagirl--thanks for the info. Looks like that rumor is indeed true, unfortunately for everyone on the call list. It is stressing me out that I might be in the car or the shower or doing laundry, whatever and not hear the damn phone! Then again, I could keep my phone w/ me for the next 2 months and never hear a thing. Torture!

HghlndsRnch--Hi! I'm glad I'm not the only one in limbo. I too signed up for the info session next Tuesday the 13th in hopes of getting some additional info. In addition to how the call list works, I'm also interested in the number of spots they have available for the Spring 2011 term assuming I don't get a call for Summer. I am stressed now by the news that if you don't answer your phone they move on to the next person, and the fact that there is no ranking of any sort--seems so random and chaotic. I feel like I need to buy a holster and keep my phone literally on my body 24/7! I also applied for traditional, summer 2010. I have a previous bachelor's so technically could do the accelerated, I would just rather not for multiple reasons. Of course I would take it if offered, however. good luck to us both, I hope we hear something soon!
