  1. USN launches A-BSN program to start Oct 2010

    mmt4 posted a topic in Nevada Nursing

    I kept seeing the ad on pages while surfing the web and I kept thinking, hm, maybe they are calling their 18 mo program accelerated b/c it is 18 mos straight through unlike the traditional 4 semester...

  2. Anyone going to CSN this semester?

    mmt4 replied to Kchaffin's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Thanks. I was kind of curious who would be in the class with me (as in what intended majors). Your info helps. I am taking chem 110 and Psc 101 (distance) this term. Four kids 12 and under and I am...

  3. Anyone going to CSN this semester?

    mmt4 replied to Kchaffin's topic in Nevada Nursing

    What Chem do you have to take? I decided against Nursing and am taking Chem 110 so I can apply to the CLS program and I have been trying to figure out who else has to take that class. Way back when...

  4. Transfer from NSC to CSN

    mmt4 replied to CaliJessXoxo's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Definitely check the box indicating you are applying for a limited entry program. I think the credits coming from a known, in-state school will help you a lot. I had a bunch of old credits from...

    mmt4 replied to Cupcake89121's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Good luck to all of you - hope this week goes by quickly. And for anyone reading this but still needing to take pre-reqs next term for applying next year, the Spring 2011 schedule lookup is now...

  6. USN launches A-BSN program to start Oct 2010

    mmt4 replied to mmt4's topic in Nevada Nursing

    mangoey - Once they have your unofficial transcripts they can look through them and let you know what else you might need. That was part of the telephone call I had with an advisor. The TEAS was...

  7. University of Southern Nevada

    mmt4 replied to ynvme4's topic in Nevada Nursing

    wow that sounds pretty painless. Are you taking it as a UNLV non-degree student? I'll have to check how difficult (or not) it is to get registered and take the class there vs. taking PSC 101 at...

  8. University of Southern Nevada

    mmt4 replied to ynvme4's topic in Nevada Nursing

    That is the whole class? I'm going to have to look at UNLVs schedule. I am likely still going to need NV constitution for my alternate plan and I was just going to take it at CSN distance ed next...

  9. University of Southern Nevada

    mmt4 replied to ynvme4's topic in Nevada Nursing

    My husband went to Town Square the other night and liked The Yard House (I think that is what it was called). So there are places off the strip that are fun. Town Square looks like a nice place to go...

  10. University of Southern Nevada

    mmt4 replied to ynvme4's topic in Nevada Nursing

    What is annoying about the strip ... #1 is the traffic. Don't go near the strip unless you have to. We got off at Tropicana and parked at NYNY which is right there at the exit and my husband was...

  11. CSN Spring 2011 Information

    mmt4 replied to Cupcake89121's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Wow lucky you guys. My transcript eval was logged as received on July 20th, and I am still waiting for my eval to be done. (I have a bachelor's degree and am not applying until spring 2011 for fall...

  12. University of Southern Nevada

    mmt4 replied to ynvme4's topic in Nevada Nursing

    I think with the cost of USN the applicant pool is substantially smaller than for CSN and NSC. I have a 3.73 and got a 94 on my TEAS and was pretty much told as long as I get my app in early in the...

  13. Any Info. about USN

    mmt4 replied to femflores1's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Hi 1mac - It was not a full interview. It was more of a screening at first - she wanted to know why I was interested in the program, how I felt about the online format for the didactic portion,...

  14. Clinical rotation hours (shift lengths/times) at the diff programs?

    mmt4 posted a topic in Nevada Nursing

    I am trying to figure out what the different programs have for their clinical hours. I know that certain areas, like community health. are going to have different hours than a regular hospital shift,...

    mmt4 replied to mmt4's topic in Nevada Nursing

    The first cohort is October. I know they are waiting for some approval for VA funding for their ABSN program b/c I mentioned using some GI Bill money to help offset tuition. They have four starts per...

  16. Clinical rotation hours (shift lengths/times) at the diff programs?

    mmt4 replied to mmt4's topic in Nevada Nursing

    thanks. Yeah I was thinking of part time as well. Four kids.... and I have to see what my husband's work schedule will be like when we get to LV this summer. We don't know how much travel his job...

  17. Turn every two hours

    mmt4 replied to Alnitak7's topic in General Nursing

    Way back when I was in LPN school (that one semester) we started our clinicals in a LTC caring for the residents who could not do anything for themselves at all, so turning q2h was the first thing we...

  18. Any Info. about USN

    mmt4 replied to femflores1's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Good luck! I thought there was another thread about USN on here that talked about interviews. You might try looking again - it did not have interview in the title but there was a discussion somewhere...

  19. Don't know if nursing is right for me.

    mmt4 replied to cloudy817's topic in Nursing Career

    Well, I am not in yet, but if you look at the curriculum you will see that you rotate through various settings as a student so you will probably spend time on medical and surgical floors, possibly do...

    Hey guys I am doing a telephone "advising" interview - the appt where they go over your unofficial transcripts to give you an idea of what should transfer and what else you may need to take, and where...

    mmt4 replied to missjennmb's topic in Public, Community Health

    Where I moved after college (my husband is in the Air Force) the hospital system in our small town used RNs to do the community health classes and outreach. There really was not a whole lot of...

  24. Today after clinical I broke down in Tears!!:(

    mmt4 replied to believeallispossible's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    is there any way you can schedule yourself not to work the night before clinical? This way you could get to bed by 830/900 and get up at 330 and get to the hospital at 5. maybe even a half-hour of...
