  1. March 26 start

    One more week:sleep: On the one hand, I think it's been really hard, but on the other it's not been as bad as I was afraid it would be. I finished mine tonight, although I am waiting until morning...
  2. Ohio University RN-to-BSN Program

    Under this section for Ohio University, find the March 26th start date thread. That is where those of us who started in March do most of our posting for 451. We all post in other areas as well, but we...

    Thank you. Hoping it's just a 24 hour bug. I'm feeling a little better now, haven't thrown up in quite a while atleast. I swore I wasn't going to leave anything until the last day after my huge...

    Glad I was able to
  5. I dont think ICU is for me:(

    I did one year of ICU before I switched. I was struggling, didn't seem to be grasping things as well as I felt I should have. It was hard, since I was a strong Med/Surg type nurse, and felt like a...
  6. March 26 start

    I had started doing the reading, and got some info from my work, but hadn't had a chance to start my paper yet. No biggie, I figured I have Thursday, Friday, Saturday off work, plenty of time to get...
  7. March 26 start

    It's frustrating to have a mistake that you feel was so stupid. I did it last week. Just keep trying to remind yourself that it's our first class, and we are learning! Atleast it wasn't a massive...

    Luckily, we are in the middle of this big thing for it, so they are putting out updates and stuff. I was able to get a ton of info for it,

    I emailed my advisor regarding this, and she says because we started in the spring on a semester course, we don't have to do the transition
  10. Night shift, with kids?

    We are as well. I don't have any family help. My babysitter is a family friend, who is a stay at home mom of 4, but 3 of hers go to school during the day. So she is very flexible for
  11. Night shift, with kids?

    Just looking to hear from anyone who works nights, who has kids at home. How bad is it? How does your schedule work when you have to work? Like what time do you sleep, do you feel like you don't see...
  12. Night shift, with kids?

    Sounds like our situation is very similar! I only have to do 3 weekend shifts a month though. Good luck to

    I think because you are in the online program though, you won't get the increase. It's for on campus classes I

    Yeah, even being safe with this one, there's not telling what will happen in the
  15. Night shift, with kids?

    Yikes, I don't think I could manage for 2 years. When I worked nights before, I didn't have kids. So I was just always on the night schedule. I slept during the day, and up at night even my days off....
  16. Night shift, with kids?

    I could not do 5 nights a week. The fact that it is only 2 is the only reason I think I can handle it. That and it's only for like 6 months hopefully. Then we will be moving out of state. Which is why...
  17. Night shift, with kids?

    How are you handling it, just starting? That is my plan, I figure I will send them to the sitter the day I work, at around 1 or 2ish, so I can take a nap before work. Then I can send them the day...

    Just in case anyone isn't subscribed or following the regular thread. If you get the email about the tuition increase, it does NOT affect us. Atleast this time. Says the last line of the article, out...
  19. Ohio University RN-to-BSN Program

    Ok, according to this article, it is only for in state undergraduates. So that wouldn't affect us. Last line of the article "Graduate tuition for Ohio students, and undergraduate and graduate tuition...

  21. Ohio University RN-to-BSN Program

    From what I have seen and heard, it is better to look at it as if you will hear within 1-2 months of your start date, rather than based on when you applied. Most people get their confirmation about...
  22. Night shift, with kids?

    I do have a reliable babysitter who will watch them while I sleep. She is about a 20 minute drive, which isn't completely ideal, but it's doable. I figure I can still get a couple hours time with...
  23. March 26 start

    Thank you! If it wasn't for the fact I'd have to take Algebra, I would just do statistics at Rio Salado during this time. OU has a 5 week stats, but it's for part B only. I need the arts course, and...
  24. classes offered this summer

    There is a 5 week course, but it's for Part B, not part A. Depends on which stats you want as well, there are 2 different classes. One of them is the full 10
  25. March 26 start

    So I guess I will have to take the entire summer off, although I had planned to go for Part A. But there are no classes that I can take. My C-section is August 10th, and Summer B runs through the...
