  1. Just Visited a NS: Impressions?

    Check online if the school is regionally and nursing association accredited, that will give you an idea if classes will transfer at a later point. If the school is regionally accredited, they should,...
  2. Nudity?

    Sports bras and sports shorts at our school during lab, and all students are in one big lab room. If you have a problem with taking shirts off in front of others I am sure your teachers will work with...
  3. Ask yourself this: Why did you decide to invest time, money, and effort into all the prerequisites without even knowing if you will get accepted into a nursing
  4. Nursing. No
  5. What Stethoscope to purchase?

    If you can, go to a store and try out several brands and models, because a lot of it is personal preference. Another way to test a few different stethoscopes is to hold off during the first weeks of...
  6. UCD adding new prerequisite

    It's nice of you to give other prospective applicants a heads-up. The number of applicants has risen greatly last application cycle at CU (and I would guess at pretty much any nursing school) so I am...
  7. Another consideration would be if you want to work locally after graduating. If you do, then the name of the school will mean something to employers and you might have a slight advantage if you...
  8. You can select schools by checking their accreditation as well. Here is the link to regionally accredited schools in CO from the Higher Learning Commission website:...

    Maybe a gift card for a book

  11. Help me understand something please

    If you want to get supertechnical you would also have to count in possible waiting times between application deadlines and admission letters/program start. Many schools now require that you have...
  12. Help me understand something please

    The number of prerequisites also depends on previous (if any) degrees you might have. If you already have a Bachelor in any field you will most likely only have to take prerequisites like AP I &...
  13. what is a good age to be done with school?

    It all has pros and cons. I agree with you that it is probably easier to get the basic professional training done before you have family and kids (at least in my personal experience). Then again, I am...
  14. I don't think I ever used the CDs in a book if they were even there. I too use the resources on the textbook's website and always find them very helpful (at the very least they usually supply one or...
  15. Question about hepatitis B vaccine

    Actually, I too had started my series app. 8 years ago and did not have to restart the series when I continued it app. 1 1/2 years ago. I received the 2 out of 3 shot and then 6 months later the 3/3...
  16. Chemistry online--good or bad idea?

    It is definitely not cheap - $220 with shipping & taxes. If you decide to take it online I would suggest you purchase a few extra glass tubes. I found some on amazon for less than $10 (12 I think)...

  18. Chemistry online--good or bad idea?

    I am finishing CHE 101 through ccconline in a few weeks. You get 2 practice quizzes per chapter from the textbook's website and my exams are 20 questions each, no repeats, and they are timed. CHE 101...
  19. It's understandable that from a waitlisted student's perspective this way of forming diversity in a cohort seems less than appealing, but it does in fact form a diverse cohort. By being able to form a...
  20. Another reason is that some schools identify applicants by type rather than by order. If a first-choice student declines the admission offer then they might want to offer the spot to a waitlist...
  21. I got accepted at Regis and will start in a few weeks in their accelerated second Bachelor program. In fact, I turned down CU's admission offer for Regis. Stats are 4.0 GPA prerequisites, 3.89 GPA...
  22. Online classes good enough?

    I think some of the practice assignments might have had the option of seeing a step-by-step solution process, but I am not sure how helpful those were (I only used them a few times to see where my...
  23. Online classes good enough?

    Is Phoenix regionally (not nationally) accredited? If not, that might be why the classes do not transfer. Make sure your school is regionally accredited and you shouldn't have any issues. State...
  24. Online classes good enough?

    I never had a problem with my online classes not being accepted, and it will not show on your transcript if they are online. I even took APII hybrid (lecture online, lab on campus - not a fun class to...
  25. I don't think you should have a problem finding peer-reviewed articles about the topic through your school
