Are there any clinicals?!

Hi everyone!Just curious if anyone else has gone through this but I have a loan forgiveness through my school for Upmc Shadyside that their school costed $32,054 for two years and I only had to pay $10,000 and $18,923 was forgiven as long as I work my two years at upmc as a full time nurse. When I started work, every two weeks, $131 is taken out of my pay check until two years or $6,812 of taxes have been paid.......Will I see this money back ever??? Or did I really just pay almost 17,000 and make myself committed to UPMC for two years??

Hi guyssss!! I just took my nclex yesterday and got the long agonizing 265 questions!!! Did the PVT in my car and got the good pop up!!!

I just recently got hired at UPMC Presby and I'm not even out of nursing school yet! let alone taken the NCLEX!! I graduate at the end of June... But I do go to UPMC shadyside SON and I worked as a PCT so that helped me get a job a lot quicker then my other classmates trying to interview!

Do you still have the study guide? I've searched everrrrrywhere in threads and CANNOT find it!!! =(

Can someone please send me the AN Study Guide?! THANK YOU SO MUCH!! Email: [email protected]

FYI, We just got a letter from SHY SON telling us the tuition went down 1400$/semester

I added you to my contacts list so if you have annnny more questions just message me and ill answer whatever I can! :)

Heres the break down of the payment schedule.. it may vary with what classes you've already taken.. ps. they don't transfer any nursing classes you have taken.. JUST AP I and II (has to be from same school), MICRO, NUTRTION, LOGIC, INTRO TO DIVERSTIY 1st semester: $4774, 2nd semster: $5797, 3rd Semester: $5797, 4th Semester: $6138, 5th Semester $6479, 6th Semester $3069

yeah you pay it over the 6 semesters that you are there! and there are a lot of loans you can do.. they offer fasfa and private loans and stuff which is what everyone that i knew had to do because they didn't qualify for the tuition forgiveness... I would call and ask the school about the forgiveness and see if they still offer it.. and the tuition basically doubled..and they told us it was for "economic situations".... rriiight!!

I started in August and I have the tuition forgiveness and basically you have to pay 12,800 total... divided into 6 semesters. The total schooling costs around 32,000.. and UPMC pays 19,000 and you come up with the rest... BUT the class that just started this semester (March) was not offered the tuition forgiveness so I don't even know if they still have it..

Fall term started AUGUST 30th!!

You will LOVEEE SHY SON!!! =) Good Luck!!

I go to Shadyside now and I started in August but they also have a March start date!

Its one of the worssst feelings in the world waiting for the results and even more worse waiting for your acceptance letter!! I took my test on 3-24 and got my results back 4-8 so it was just a little over 2 weeks!! GOOD LUCK!!:)

Its like... How is a current measured?..and the answer would be AMPS or amperes. And How is resistance measured.. and the answer would be Ohms. Really just study this site.. Ohm's Law for Electrical Circuits - Succeed in Understanding Physics: School for Champions This is all I studied and I got all of them right. There might also be a picture of electric following from a source and you have pick which way the current is flowing!

I had to get fingerprinting done to start nursing school in PA and we had to go to http://www.pa.cogentid.com/index.htm and sign up from this website through the department of welfare because you have to be pre registered before you go to a site to get your finger prints scanned. We also had to get a background check done at the same time and for the total of everything it was $36.00. If you go to that website all the information should be there and you have to look up local fingerprinting centers near you to go get them done.. it takes about 2 weeks for them to come in the mail! Hope that helps!

I used Barron's Nursing School Entrance Exam book to study and thats it and I thought it helped a lot! Make sure you brush up on basic anatomy questions like where is the tibia located, etc. Also there was 5-6 questions on electricity about kilowatts and currents ..very weird stuff to be on a nursing entrance exam.. GOOOOOD LUCK!!

Does anyone know what all Clinical rotations you do throughout nursing school at Shadyside? I'm curious if you do anything with Pediatrics or Labor and Delivery?

i just had a question for anyone thats gone through the program full time. i will be starting in august and need to have a part time job for expenses. is it possible to keep the part time job through school or are you too busy?

I also started a new thread called Shadyside SON Fall 2010 for all the students starting in the Fall to get to know each other!

is anyone going to the info session in july?!

Does anyone know about the new tuition increase price? It's effective starting for Aug 2010

I still haven't got anything in the mail yet!! =(
