    Well, it looks like I was on the bubble, but According to my advisor, I was accepted into the accelerated track contingent upon successful completion of one science course (Chem). Since I will have...

    Moving to Michigan....

    On "Last Comic Standing" the other night a comic made the joke that the economy is so bad in Detroit that houses were selling for five dollars. I winced, but I understood where he was coming from....

    Moving to Michigan....

    The big hospital in Southfield is Providence and it's really an excellent facility. As has been mentioned, another fine, large hospital very close by is Beaumont in Royal Oak. Both my kids were born...

    MsAshley, I am currently taking both Micro and A&PII at the same time...it is a lot, but it's definitely doable. I find myself in a bit of a mental stutter occasionally, trying to shift between...

  8. There are 8 major hospital systems in Detroit and I check their job pages every day (literally...every day). I see DOZENS of postings for RN jobs. Now, it is true that not a lot of them are for...
  9. I am just quoting a nurse friend who wrote a paper on the subject, so it looks like she has different information. In addition, it would appear that a good number of nurses working today are people...

    Who has taken chemistry and anatomy together?

    I am currently taking Micro and A&P II at the same time, both with labs, it might actually be harder, not sure; I'm shifting between biologies. Anyway, it's definitely doable to take Chem and...

    Any other pre-nursing students over 45?

    I can see us now, with our change purses and our walkers, shambling the floors of some lucky hospital (until beano and geritol time anyhow). Then it's peaches and toast

    Any other pre-nursing students over 45?

    This thread is awesome. It's so encouraging. As I said, I'll be 45 this fall. In my class there are some near my age but I think I may be the oldest or at least very close to it. I can say this for...

    Just finished OB rotation

    Davenport maintains a single large campus in Grand Rapids and several satellite campuses throughout the state. The statistics from both sites you referenced appear to be general. My guess is that the...

    Interested in Davenport University

    I was accepted to it as well. My understanding is that it's not an "accelerated course" in the sense that the expression is usually used; i.e. it is not necessarily for students already holding a...

    Celebrate Your Fall 2010 Acceptances Here!!!

    Ugh, my poor wife... I got my acceptance last week to the new BSN at Davenport and I think that since I still have a couple co-req's to do, I am going to be away from home for 12+ hours most days come...
