  1. Congratulations! I'm doing the exact same thing. Just going for it... Hope you accepted, and would love to hear how it's going. Best
  2. Look into some of the brick & mortar universities near you. I was surprised to find that one of the universities near me offered a MSN-Informatics totally on-line that was similarly priced to...
  3. Pasco-Hernando CC Nursing 2010

    In case anyone decides, like I did, to go get the ati Dosage & Calculations materials...there are no instructions on how to get to the material after you "order it" in the on-line store! I...
  4. Pasco-Hernando CC Nursing 2010

    Same here. I'm going to have to crank it up tomorrow after church. Well, after a nap, after
  5. Pasco-Hernando CC Nursing 2010

    I certainly felt like throwing up last night - I got overwhelmed when I printed out the course schedule! Like, there's no way I'll be ready to do THAT on a real, live person!!! What was I thinking?!...
  6. Pasco-Hernando CC Nursing 2010

    Can you PM me with who you talked to in Financial Aid? The WIA caseworker (who is working with all of us w/ WIA & Sponsorships) I met with yesterday, told me tuition came out of Pell... I much...
  7. Pasco-Hernando CC Nursing 2010

    Wow. Hope we don't need those materials right away! Let us know what you find out on the Pell/WIA thing r/t tuition, please! Can you try on the uniforms to find out what size you need? I don't...
  8. Pasco-Hernando CC Nursing 2010

    Advice? Mmmm, don't do it?! Sorry, but it's a ridiculous amount of money for what you are getting. Besides training as an LPN, your books, supplies, uniforms, etc. (I realize it's an all-inclusive...
  9. Pasco-Hernando CC Nursing 2010

    Sheila is no longer working at Career Central. Everything got dumped in Belinda's lap...she's doing as much as she can as fast as she can. Some of us haven't even gotten disbursements for books, let...
  10. Pasco-Hernando CC Nursing 2010

    You aren't/won't be
  11. Pasco-Hernando CC Nursing 2010

    Yeah, a new thread! Still fighting with Pinellas WIA, just for information/status...and have had enough, so I'm going to just start over with Pasco. Waiting to hear back from Sheila. Would love to...
  12. PHCC Fall 2010 (LPN/BRIDGE/RN)

    You are not alone!! From the course handbook, it looks like we are all over the place in the Fundamentals (Potter & Perry) book in the first and second weeks. First day is "Class Orientation"...
  13. Should I volunteer while in school?

    @ wannaben... I don't see why not. As long as you are in a legitimate nursing school program, are able to perform the skills required, and are allowed to work in the US, you should be able to....
  14. Should I volunteer while in school?

    Absolutely volunteer while doing your pre-reqs! Sure, it's nice to get paid but if you don't have any medical training, you don't qualify for any positions. I volunteer on the CCU floor of my local...
  15. PHCC Fall 2010 (LPN/BRIDGE/RN)

    So...go to the bookstore for "expenses" worksheet. Fax to WIA/Career central people. Go to Business office. Business office gets okay from WIA/Career Central for funds/to release funds. Funds go...
  16. PHCC Fall 2010 (LPN/BRIDGE/RN)

    Got it - thanks Yaz! My tax exempt ID may be different, so I emailed my caseworker. I did, but haven't heard anything or seen anything in WISE yet. FWIW - I did see Nursing Fundamentals up on...
  17. PHCC Fall 2010 (LPN/BRIDGE/RN)

    Ummm...wow! Thanks! Where should I start?! Bookstore? "Getting our money put into our cards too." --->
  18. PHCC Fall 2010 (LPN/BRIDGE/RN)

    Talked to S @ CC in Spring Hill. Here's the clarification I was looking for! Pell pays for tuition only. So, if you get enough Pell to cover your tuition in full, WIA/Hospital doesn't need to kick...
  19. PHCC Fall 2010 (LPN/BRIDGE/RN)

    This just in (on the WIA/Hospital sponsorship)...from my Pinellas county caseworker: "I wanted to make a correction, initially I was told we would pay last, but I contacted someone in Pasco County and...
  20. PHCC Fall 2010 (LPN/BRIDGE/RN)

    If anyone has Bright House cable & internet, you can get a student discount of $10 off your internet service per month, but you have to "apply" for it. Here's the link: Promotions|Bright House...
  21. PHCC Fall 2010 (LPN/BRIDGE/RN)

    Yaz...what size do you wear? Just in case we wear the same size! Well, here's what my WIA caseworker (Pinellas county) wrote me today about who pays what, when: "The WIA program pays after all other...
  22. PHCC Fall 2010 (LPN/BRIDGE/RN)

    Jenn - I would love to meet up with you guys, but unless some unexpected cash falls in my lap, I don't have the gas or fun $$ to cut loose. Will keep looking though! You can still apply for...
  23. PHCC Fall 2010 (LPN/BRIDGE/RN)

    MJ & Kchandler - sent you a PM w/ P******'s number at RMCBP...feel free to share as needed. Good luck!! The manual (w/handouts) is huge! Best guess...it's about 4" thick. Half is the syllabus...
  24. PHCC Fall 2010 (LPN/BRIDGE/RN)

    That's what I was wondering...but she said it was for all. I'll take it up there with me to be sure since I have to go back and deal with financial aid again. PM me if you want to "share"...
  25. PHCC Fall 2010 (LPN/BRIDGE/RN)

    I agree about orientation...just glad it's over. But then 2+ hours in financial aid was a nightmare! I purchased the syllabus w/ handouts for Nursing Fundamentals ($39.99!!)...and now that I'm...
