I have applied to MCG's MSN-CNL Program to start in Fall 2010, and I am wondering if current/past students could tell me when (as in what month) they received a phone call for an interview or acceptance/rejection letters. Additionally, I applied to t...

Hey, I LOVE it so far. I'm on the Athens campus. The professors are great, we have a great group in Athens, and I like going to lectures and lab. We start clinical in a couple weeks. Everyone on our campus comes from different backgrounds. Most of us...

I've been trying to do some research on the Internet, but I've found that not many nursing programs post the total amount of clinical/lab hours you will have acquired upon graduation. Of course, I understand that the total amount of lab/clinical hour...

Mine were organized as per term. I did this: Login to PULSE > click Student Services & Financial Aid > click Financial Aid > click Award > click Award for Aid Year > click on the Award Overview tab > scroll down I'm actually can...

Ugh, didn't even notice that. I just bought the ISBN number specified in the booklist. Hopefully they won't be too different.

@trin22: I have a few answers for you, and everyone else can probably help you with the rest. - I don't think there's any preference to the GRE or MAT as long as you have a competitive score. I know the website gives a minimum score required, but if ...

I am FINALLY sending MCG my Certificate of Immunization. Do we need need to send off the forms that document our TB Skin Test if the result was Negative?

JG2010 and attilamom, I also applied. Feel free to message me!

There's still nothing on my PULSE about Financial Aid, but I think someone on here said that the Fin Aid Office would post after July 7th? I'll call tomorrow, and I'll post again if I find out anything different (besides, PULSE is still saying that I...

I also plan on sticking with my provider (also BCBS). I'm doing the online waiver as soon as Pearce and Pearce lets me select Fall 2010 (right now, they're only doing Summer II waivers).

MCG has cashed my $100 confirmation check, and I received a letter confirming my deposit, but I'm still not in eGuide. Did this happen to anyone else?

Hey! I will be in Athens! Welcome to AllNurses! I think there's six of us on this thread right now. You make seven :) We also have a FB group which I am careful not to refer to much because once I got a warning from AN about it I just finished my pr...

Thanks, Adriane! I went onto Amazon to get an idea of the price range of stethoscopes - they range from $5 to $150. What's a good price range for a beginning nurse? Does anyone have any brand recommendations? My first impression is that $5 sounds see...

I've edited this a million times - I am sorry. I have some silly vaccine questions: - Am I supposed to have five doses of OPV? According to my paperwork, it seems like I had four. - I think I read this earlier in the thread, but since I cannot find ...

Hey Athens, do we know on what date Orientation will be?

I plan on applying - I want to keep my student loans as low as I can. I wish we had been given more time, though. Still nothing in the mail here, either.

I don't think anyone has received anything in the mail yet. My online status still says Ready for Review.

Grades have been posted which means I'm DONE WITH PRE-REQ'S! But of course, I'm still waiting on the official letter, haha!

@GAmom&nurse2be: Do you know how many clinical hours we will be completing throughout the entirety of our program? I've heard of other CNL programs in other states doing anywhere from 700 to 1000 hours before graduation.

No, that's right - as far as I know, we will be taking the NCLEX. I e-mailed Ms. Mitchell about about the advantage of the MSN-CNL program over a BSN program when I was researching nursing schools. I cannot find the e-mail, but it said that we'll hav...

Well, we may not have official letters yet, but making sure our vaccines are up to date is something we CAN do while we wait: http://www.mcg.edu/shs/immuniz.htm

I'm finishing two pre-req's (A&P II and Human Development), but there's only three weeks left including finals. I filled out the FAFSA in February (I'm still in the habit of getting it done early from being an undergrad) and sent the information...

I haven't received an official letter yet. In fact, my status still says Ready for Review! I'm really glad Olivia Mitchell called because I'd still be stressing out!

If anyone will be in Athens (and has a Facebook), you can search for "Chendamoni" and you'll find me, but I go by Chenda!

@ashle83, I don't mind sharing mine now: 3.85. My BA was in Spanish with a couple of minors in Business and Latin American Studies.
