  1. Thanks Murphyle - this was very informative and helpful. I appreciate someone's opinion on the program who actually went through it. It's a relief to know that there is time to do other things...
  2. Thanks txakolina. You answered my question. I guess I was just asking because it appears at the hospital I work at the CNA's will do certain tasks and nurses will do others. I did not realize that...
  3. Thanks Murphyle!! This is helpful. Were you in the ABSN or traditional?? If ASBN, how did you like the program?? 12 months seems intense but I like that it will be done fairly quickly. I'm...
  4. For those in the program already or who graduated, how helpful was the CNA experience?? As I mentioned, I recently got my CNA through the Red Cross and loved it. Just wondering what helped the most...
  5. Hi, not sure if anyone is still active on this thread but I was just curious about the CNA experience(importance). I realize that getting CNA experience will help any prospective nursing student to a...
  6. Firehawk, Do you know where all the clinicals are held?? I know they use Beaumont and St. johns for sure. Do you know which hospitals they use for each term?? Thanks for your help. I am hoping I...

  8. Thanks sas, I appreciate it. I applied and we'll see what happens. I'm hopeful. Maybe I will be the first Michigan student in the
  9. OU Program Changes

    Agree. I know someone who just got moved up from the Fall to May 2010 at OU. The thing to do is let them know you want to move up . I have heard they move up based on GPA rank but this may or may not...
  10. OU Program Changes

    Just to answer your other question, yes it's very likely that they are not accepting until 2012. When I applied last summer they told me January or May 2011. Basically add 1.5 years to your...

  12. Low Cost CNA Training Metro Detroit

    Most nursing homes and hospitals will reimburse for the cost of the training. I took mine through Red Cross (highly recommended) and they informed us that almost all work places will pay you back but...
  13. MSU BSN and ABSN

    yes, of course since I have put so much into it. I was just curious and not being serious at all. I just heard some others who have said big envelopes are a great sign; small not.
  14. MSU BSN and ABSN

    Decisions due out by February 19th. Does any one know if the envelope size is big = acceptance:up: vs. small and thin =
  15. OU Program Changes

    Hi, I saw that as well. I am actually interviewing next month so it will not affect me. The way I read it is you must have a minimum 3.2 gpa(cumulative) in the core 5 classes (Bio, A & P, Chem,...
  16. Hi, Thanks to all of the great advice. Your classes don't sound old at all - I am 1993 graduate ...now that's old:) But the only classes that are effected are micro, both chems, and some general...
  17. Oakland University ABSN

    Thanks Melbell, I am thinking the same thing- May start. I would think all of us who are interviewing likely are going for the same start time. But my paperwork I got from Oakland said January 2011...

  19. Oakland University ABSN

    I actually looked at the interview schedule and there are 96 slots so not sure if this is the 1st round of interviews or all the interviews they will be doing for now. When I went to the...
  20. Oakland University ABSN

    I'm not sure about the number of people interviewing but many of the programs I am applying to usually get 200-300 applicants(who meet the requirements) for around 50 spots. 20-25 % acceptance seems...

  24. Firehawk, I have a friend who is starting in May at OU. She apparently knows someone in the program right now so I will try to see what I can find out. My interview is the first week of March for...
  25. I have heard that Hospitals are paying less right now because of the economy. When you say $ 27-28 and hour, this may be the average. For entry level nurses, I bet it's less. I had heard around $...
