Hi! I remember reading your posts when I was researching Chamberlain as an option for nursing school. I recall that they didn't take a lot of your credits from your previous bachelor's and that sucked. I'm glad that you are still going to come to ...

I think it's 80% but I am not positive about that.

I had a 2.79! You will be fine!

I'm not sure if one is easier but I'm in the BSN program in Illinois, right now. You will do fine. Just study the book, it really helped me. I never had A&P or chemistry or anything and I did very well!

I think you will get in even if your score on the Hesi isn't phenomenal. I know some people have gotten in with lower GPAs and their Hesi scores weren't that high either. My acceptance letter took a while to get to me, so don't let that get you dow...

I haven't taken the NR222 yet but your second 8-week load with the math, speech and micro is definitely doable. The difficult thing that I keep hearing about NR222 is that it's so different from any other class that you've ever taken. From what I'v...

They took all of my credits and there are people from Oakton that go there. The advisor will be able to tell u for sure but u shouldn't have a problem. The school is great, the teachers really care and there's no waiting list. It's fully accredited...

Good Luck on the HESI. There was no Physics when I took it. The review book was a great help, I didn't have any sciences and I still did great just by studying the review book. I started at Chamberlain in March and I love the school! I hope all o...

The math is not so bad and u can use the calculator on the computer. The math was basic fractions, ratios, averages and time conversions. I used the practice book and it helped me to pass. Good luck!

It is hard to get a private loan these days. During my undergrad years I got one sooo easily. I had loans from Sallie Mae for undergrad but they turned me down this time. I ended up getting approved with Wells Fargo, try them if you haven't alread...

I had my meeting with student services yesterday. They did a type of financial grid showing my Fafsa info and also the Federal Loans that I qualify for. They gave me a total of tuition and included books and all of the other miscellaneous fees. It...

Hi Carrissa! I have an appointment on Tuesday, Jan. 5, I will let u know everything that they tell me!

Thanks, I will look into this!!

My advisor is on vacation so I am waiting for her to get back so she can give me the lowdown on those credits. I have a bachelor's so I really don't want to take unneccessary classes all over again. I am going to apply for private loans too because...

This is horrible but you will do fine and be stronger because of it!

I got in for spring 2010 too! I'm so excited!

Thanks for this! I have to take this exam by Tuesday.

I can't wait to see how many classes that they will approve for me!

teacher08, When do you start at Chamberlain? I just applied and I am waiting to see if I have been accepted for Spring 2010. You went through the same things that I was going through. Trying to decide about pre-reqs, and if I should take them some...

I am going to the open house at Chamberlain tomorrow. If all goes well, I will be starting school in March.

When I took my CNA class, the teacher told us that there are places that would allow you to work before being certified. As long as your certification is pending. Your pay should increase after you pass your test. Try to apply at some nursing homes.

Congrats on UIC and good luck! Hello all! You all have helped me so much! I am starting my application process for Chamberlain. I have to study for that Hesi!
