  1. Looking for LPN school in Colorado

    Did you apply to CU this year? If you apply to DSN in January, you'd be in for the July start date and you'd know from CU in March/April, so that could help make your decision! Better to have...
  2. Looking for LPN school in Colorado

    SummitAP - we all have different paths we must take...I can't wait for CU and Regis too ridiculously expensive for me, although I am confident with my grades and background, I could get into both. I...
  3. Looking for LPN school in Colorado

    I start in January, the same day you call in actually! ;-) I don't know how they divvy them up, just call the main number and see if one of them is available and then they'll assign you to them....
  4. Looking for LPN school in Colorado

    You should email Kelly or Jeff directly, they are the admissions people. This way when you call on 1/4, you will have a contact and you can call their direct numbers. :) When I called it honestly...
  5. Looking for LPN school in Colorado

    Yeah, you call on January 4th for the July cohort...I was in the first wave of them doing this and I will warn you that you feel like you're calling a radio station, you just keep getting a busy...

    Hi everyone! I just thought I'd repost something to see if there's any new people from the January cohort on here! :) And to see how everyone else is doing. Are you guys all done with the stuff...
  7. Bilingual RN = more $?

    Thanks so much guys! Even if they don't pay more, it'll definitely put me ahead of the pack.
  8. Bilingual RN = more $?

    Does anyone know if bilingual nurses get paid more at Denver Health? Or any other metro area hospital? If so, do you know how much? Thanks!

  11. I've heard Colorado is pretty bad overall in terms of what they even pay their permanent nurses, however I'm not an RN yet, so I can't tell you for sure...but what I know is Denver Health is one of...
  12. Looking for LPN school in Colorado

    texanmomma - I didn't know about the in house financing option, can you tell me about that? Is that where you make payments? I sure hope I don't have to get Sallie Mae, 11-15% is outrageous!!! I'm...

    I know, it makes no sense to me either! I sure hope I can get some scholarships or tuition forgiveness afterwards. I'm starting at Denver School of Nursing in January in the BSN program. I was...
  15. Looking for LPN school in Colorado

    Pretty much any nursing program will tell you not to work more than 20 hours per week. I am a single mother, so I can totally relate! I am going to try to work as much as I can, but realistically...

  17. Looking for LPN school in Colorado

    DSN said that they don't qualify for the loans from banks because they haven't been in the system long enough (usually they need to be for 3 1/2 years). Thanks tho, hopefully I'll figure something...

  19. Looking for LPN school in Colorado

    I'm starting at DSN in January and freaking out about tuition! I plan on cutting my hours at work in half so I can go to school and hopefully I'll be able to scrape by and make it. But how has...
  20. Looking for LPN school in Colorado

    I've spoken with DSN and they are having everyone do HESI like exams throughout your time there (which I think is good, it's an indicator of how you're doing) and at the end, however you get 3-4...

    Coloradogrl - they've been working on it for years because it takes years to be accredited! It will
  22. Info on Denver School of Nursing

    bfrdncr41 - that's so great to hear both of those hospitals are willing to hire you!!! Especially Univ. of Colo., they've been so stickler about DSN, so I didn't think they'd be open so

    Dennis88 - OMG that is hilarious, yes Terry couldn't have been any worse as a teacher. I just had Jodi for my first Patho class today, she's awesome! Hopefully the class won't be "too" hard! :)...
  24. Lutheran? Of C?

    UserG - I didn't mean right where Lutheran was located, I just meant this side of town...I live in the Green Mountain area of Lakewood, so not right next door, but pretty close to Lutheran. I think...
  25. Looking for LPN school in Colorado

    You are so lucky you didn't have Terry for lab! I HATED him!!! I did the hybrid too, but I had him for everything. One day we had a sub, she was AWESOME, we all did so much better on that test than...
