   Criminal Conversion

   lhayee replied to lhayee's topic in Criminal

   She told me that it will only affect me partipating in clinicals if it shows up on the backgorund check, if it does, it will be sent to the clinical sites for them to review.... But I got my backgorund check back yesterday and it didn't show up.. so I'm clear to start clinicals. But i do have to put that on my form to take the NCLEX.

   how many accepted

   lhayee replied to eternalbride's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Hey congrats! i got accepted as well, and start in the fall. I'm SOOO excited! I think i might take pathophysiology next summer ... but i would've had to take about 2-3 summer classes if i didn't have most of my pre-requs done. i've never taken summer classes before and i am a bit worried how they are going to fit a semesters worth of information into a couple of weeks. Good Luck everyone!!

   Criminal Conversion

   lhayee posted a topic in Criminal

   When I was 15 was was caught stealing and got charged with criminal conversion. I'm 23 now and got accepted into the nursing program and I am to start clincals in the fall. Will this offense show up on my detailed background check? (I already informed the Director of Nursing about this). Has anyone heard of some getting to sit for the NCLEX and being able to find a decent job? Thanks in Advance!!

   BrownEyes3000: If don't mind me asking what area did she go into. If i do decide to go to med school, i don't have the slightest idea what concentration to go into.

   Are private schools really easier to get into?

   lhayee replied to mell260's topic in Pre-Nursing

   i'm going to transfer over to a private school from a public and they said 95% of the students there get federal aid and/or are on scholarships (academic or sports). It is pretty easy to get into, but it is a good program, i haven't heard one negative thing (besides the cost, $22,000 per year) from any of the nursing graduates. Also all but one credit doesn't transfer (micro), and one class that is not offered at the public school is all that i have left to take for general requirements. So private schools aren't all that bad, just do your homework before making a commitment.

    i'm going to transfer to saint francis from ivy tech.. do you have to have all the pre-requs done before u can start the nursing courses?? b/c i'm not done with them and the website catalog makes it seem like you can complete both at the same time. And if you don't mind tell'n me.. wut did you get on your teas test... i got a 72, but i plan on retaking it this summer.
