AP? really? the lady there told me there would be nothing on AP, thanks for the heads up!! I was planning on starting in Oct but it just didnt work out, ill *hopefully* be starting in their Feb program!!

are the questions on the HESI exam similar to the practice test in the book? what parts should I focus on studing on?

I am looking to start Kaplans LVN program this winter, and need to go in to take the extrance exam. Has anyone here taken their HESI exam yet? Are the questions on the exam similar to the practice test in the book? Are you allowed to use a calculator for the math section? The exam only covers the math, reading & grammer correct??

awesome. thank you. i looked into it so hopefully i will hear back from them this next week.

i checked into the Golden Hills program and the website states that their CNA classes have been suspended until early 2010, booooo! Im totally bummed, but oh well. I should have already started my LVN program by then or i would look at doing it. thanks for the info. though!

LIBERTY_BELL: are you willing to see your HESI book when your finished with it? Or do you plan on keeping it?

one of them was the CAA grant, then there is the FSFSA (but im not sure how much it is), and they have another grant I was told about through Military1Source.

how much is the fasfa grants and cal grants? Unless i can get this course to be less than $5k out of pocket, i wont be able to swing it. Are the financial aids really helpful in working the system to help you get financial aid? im going to look at purchasing the HESI book this week so i can start studying, i need to talk to someone about it all and see what we can get worked out. i know i can get round about $6k with being a military spouse but im going to need more help.

where did you do your CNA training in SD for free? Im in SD county and am def interested in the free CNA class!!

Im looking at the Kaplan vista campus as well, Im also a military spouse, but wont look at starting until thier Feb program. I was looking at the Oct 12th program but that just wont work for me. I havent taken the HESI cause im still trying to figure out how to pay for the program, thats my only draw back at the momenti, the 31K price tag, which is insane. Know that i know the Sac campus is alot less, Im going to call the Sac campus on monday to see why there is a difference in cost, cause I would think the cost of the programs should be the same. ASHLIE - can i ask you how you figured out that it would be, possilby, only $950 out of pocket? I already know about the $3K and $2K grants for military spouses but thats all i know about. What is the the student loans that Kaplan does?

I just went in to the SoCal Kaplan to inquire about their LVN program, has anyone been through it? It seems intense but well worth it to be done in a year, the only thing holding me back is the cost. I was quoted over $31K to attend, is this similar to those to have done their program??
