  1. Hey I wanted to get everyones opinion on online classes. Does it show on your transcripts that the class was online? Is this frowned upon? I am taking two classes online right now (child dev and...
  2. pre-nursing mom of 3 needs advice

    This is such a personal decision, and can be a very touchy subject! My answer if you NEEDED the money, would be to just put your guilt aside. That being said, I have 4 kids and we dont need two...
  3. Online classes good enough?

    LMAO. I know what you mean, I actually showed my husband some of the discussions because they were SO BAD. I can only imagine what it would be like in class. Using shorthand or abbreviations in a...
  4. Pregnant during nursing school?

    I havent been to nursing school yet, but I have had 4 babies. The first thing that comes to mind is the complete and utter exhaustion you feel during pregnancy, even in the early months. The other...
  5. Alcohol for umbilical cord?????

    In 99' with my twins they said wipe it with alcohol. In 2004 and 2007 with my other 2 they said to just keep it dry. Oddly enough the ones who we used nothing on fell off much sooner....like a whole...
  6. Online classes good enough?

    Thats good to know! By the time I actually apply to nursing school I will have transcripts from 4 different schools.....that's one of the joys of being a military spouse. I know what you mean about...
  7. Hi, my husband and I might be moving to Annapolis in 3 years and I really dont know the area very well. My tentative plan is to find a BSN program out there to get into but the closest ones I could...
  8. Annapolis area schools...

    Thanks I will check out the surrounding areas. We actually have 4 kids, so we will need to rent a house. The military gives us Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) and its adjusted according to the area...
  9. Online classes good enough?

    Thanks! Im have a strong read/writing learning style, so the classes I have been taking work really well for me. When it comes to math though, I need to see someone work out the
  10. Online classes good enough?

    Thanks guys, that's good advice. I know that A&P can be taken online, but I think that I will need to take it in-class. I want to prepare myself for closed book tests......LOL. What made me...
  11. Annapolis area schools...

    Really? Thats good to hear, honestly thinking about the commute really freaks me out! I looked up taking public transit and the estimate was 2 hours:eek: I dont know if we will be able to take a trip...
  12. Annapolis area schools...

    I would like my BSN. Doesnt it seem like community colleges are harder to get into? Or maybe its just the waiting
  13. I am looking at getting into a traditional BSN program, 2 years long, have to have 60 credits of pre-req's, etc. So you are basically just taking nursing classes and doing clinicals from what I...
  14. You guys have no idea how helpful it is seeing your schedules! (or maybe you do:) They all seem to be somewhat similar, is there ever a choice as far as different class times? Or is only one time...
  15. So whats the farthest you guys would recommend living from school? Depending on where I go I may be looking at a 30-40 minute commute and with all the time you need to go back and forth I am wondering...
  16. Schools in the Maryland DC area? There is a good chance I will be moving there in about 3 years and by that time I should have everything I need to get into a BSN two year program. Either DC area or...
  17. Eeek, super competitive is what I am worried about. The closest schools I could find to Annapolis were in Baltimore about 28 miles away. I am not sure if thats too far, but it would REALLY be nice to...
  18. Yeah a general idea would be nice. We will probably be in Annapolis Maryland, or DC area. The only ones I could find from online searches were University of Maryland, and JHU. Obviously the latter...
  19. Mama2fiveboys- Yeah I am taking Nutrition and a psychology this semester online, its been working out well. I plan on taking 2-3 a semester also and as much online as possible. Of course chem, bio,...
  20. Thank you SO much, seeing your schedules is very, very helpful! I know two years is short even if it is a big sacrifice. Does your program have summers off? Isitpossible, how long does your part-time...
  21. Sorry my first post is probably confusing because I said "traditional" BSN program, I just meant NOT accelerated.
  22. Thanks Tokyorose! Thats really helpful to see it broken down like that. I know that BSN is a 4 yr degree, but I meant a 2 yr program. I have seen several programs that you need 60 credits (pre-reqs)...
  23. Yes, I know a BSN is a 4 year degree. You have to have 60 credits to get into many BSN programs that are 2 years in length. Which gives you the rest of the credits you need, equaling out to 120 plus...
  24. Anyone wishing to start BSN in 2012?

    Probably 2013 for me, but what are you planning to take this year? I am meeting with an academic counselor next week to figure out what I need to take. I have to go part time because I have kids....
  25. Anyone?
