i won!!!! i filed a grievance and took my case to the Vice Chancellor of Academic Affairs stating that i should be allowed a waiver because policy stated that i am suppose to retake N157 but because its not being offered anymore its not my fault!!! Thank you Lord!!! still in the program!!! im not giving up and thanks to those who felt i should fight it and not just roll over and accept what they initially stated. Be blessed!!!

University of Hawaii Maui Campus

btw University of Hawaii Maui Campus...

my school is an accredited university which seems to operate like a "for profit" system i guess. i still don't understand how taking a class that i already passed with an A is gonna help me pass the NLCEX-PN on the second try. i have a meeting set up with the vice chancellor tomorrow in which within my grievance i am asking for a waiver to this policy due to the fact that it will no longer be offered due to the changing curriculum from ADN to BSN. my main argument is that i should be given some sort of option to continue my education. At this point the only option (if you could even call it that) is to move to another island and reapply at a LPN to RN transition program. I truly feel that it is not my fault that the curriculum is changing and that options should be made to those that are in my situation. thank you to all for your comments!!! greatly appreciated!!!

this is an ADN program on Maui but i seem to be lost in a loop hole. is it legal to make me take a class that i have already passed? i know my options is an LPN to RN but i feel i really worked hard to get here and it seems that everyone before me in the same situation had an option. i have none. the only reason i'm getting is that its always been this way. BUT in my opinion this has never happened before because i'm the last cycle before changing to ADN to BSN program. what do i do?!?!?!

i need some advice fellow nurses!!! i just completed my first year of an ADN program and had started on 2nd year when i failed my NCLEX-PN. My school has now dropped me from the program and i have no option to continue on. The program just changed from ADN to BSN and i was told that i can't jump into the next group (last group of ADN behind me) because i have to go back and take N157 again (in which i passed with an A) to enter into the last rotation. Sadly N157's last session is goin on right now which is too late for me to join. I've asked the faculty if i could get a waiver due to this unforeseen circumstance in which they state, "sorry school policy." other students in my rotation that failed previously were allowed into the last rotation. i'm at a lost and i feel my dream slipping away. i joined this program to be an RN and not an LPN. Crazy part is that we don't even use our LPN license!!! i'm just wondering who can i speak to to have my side explained with out being swept under the rug?:confused::confused:

i continue to hear that there are scholarships specifically for males???? any help would be appreciated!!!
