  1. Georgia Highlands College Fall 2011

    CAllen44 replied to smart99guy's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Yeah, they wait to register you for first semester after everyone has returned their letters saying they will attend and they get your CPR cards and vaccine documentation. Plus it will depend on how...

  2. Georgia Highlands College Fall 2011

    CAllen44 replied to smart99guy's topic in Georgia Nursing

    eKat, I don't know that the SCORE info necessarily means anything. I was accepted last year (got my packet on June 12, FYI) and I remember stalking SCORE trying to glean some knowledge. I was also a...

  3. Georgia Highlands College Fall 2011

    CAllen44 replied to smart99guy's topic in Georgia Nursing

    TigerRN, I am finishing up my second semester of the nursing program and am taking Chem this summer because I haven't had Nutrition or FCCS yet (Chem subs for both of these and will help me on my way...

  4. Hope & Pell Grant

    CAllen44 replied to gapeacheykeen's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I received the Hope grant while doing my prereqs for my RN program because I did the prereqs at a technical college. It paid all my tuition and a stipend for books, so I was able to use my Pell grant...

  5. Georgia Highlands College Fall 2011

    CAllen44 replied to smart99guy's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Wendy, I was on the same schedule you are when finishing my prereqs last year. I also went to Chatt and everything transferred with no problem! I finished A&P 2 in winter, applied, and took micro...

  6. Night Shift!!! How do YOU stay awake?

    CAllen44 replied to khampl's topic in General Nursing

    I work weekend nights and go to school/clinicals during the week. So I try to stay out late on Thursday night (play pool or something) so I can sleep all day Friday and get on that night shift...

  7. Georgia Highlands College Spring 2011

    CAllen44 replied to bailey8's topic in Georgia Nursing

    A little bit, mostly in our online content, but some of the Rome professors have come to our campus to deliver certain lectures in their areas of specialty, and it is my understanding that our...

  8. Georgia Highlands College Spring 2011

    CAllen44 replied to bailey8's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Congrats to everyone who got in! I'm finishing up my first semester, but I'm in the Marietta program, so I won't see you guys when you join up with the class in Rome for 2nd year...see you at...

  9. Recommendation for scrubs?

    CAllen44 replied to Nomijen's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Hang on a minute...I'm also a first-year nursing student, about to start clinicals...your handbook dictates that your panties must "cover your buttocks"??? Is this a common practice? Ours says...

  10. moving to atlanta

    CAllen44 replied to medg's topic in Georgia Nursing

    The bad part about Atlanta is the public transportation is pretty inadequate. Also the "metro" area is huge (and public transport only covers downtown). So I would really recommend you visit and get...

  11. Georgia Highlands College Fall 2010

    CAllen44 replied to GaMommy81's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Our first test was supposed to be 18 chapters, I counted and it ended up being more like 23 (including med term). Definitely all situational. I don't know what your books are like there, but I would...

  12. Georgia Highlands College Spring 2011

    CAllen44 replied to bailey8's topic in Georgia Nursing

    They don't send a confirmation. And for ranking, they look ONLY at your worksheet score. They determine a cutoff score - those above it are in, those under it are not. Good luck!

  13. Georgia Highlands College Spring 2011

    CAllen44 replied to bailey8's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Well we had our first test today, over 23 chapters of material. It isn't hard (IMO), but it's A LOT of stuff. And our second test is only a week away! It's definitely the most work I've ever put into...

  14. LPN or RN Chattahoochee Tech? HELP PLEASE!

    CAllen44 replied to Kwise0788's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I don't necessarily *know* of any, but you can go to any hospital/hospital system's website and view job postings. There are almost always CNA positions

    CAllen44 replied to bailey8's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I overnighted mine, plus that way you can get confirmation that they received it. Good luck! When is the

  21. Chattahoochee Tech

    CAllen44 replied to Ree82's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I did my prereqs at Chattahoochee and am currently in the nursing program at Georgia Highlands. I work with a LOT of Chatt students who are debating whether or not to apply to the Chatt ADN program....

  22. Georgia Highlands College Spring 2011

    CAllen44 replied to bailey8's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Call them. It's much more efficient and effective than waiting for an email. The only time I've gotten email responses from them is when I have specifically emailed, for instance, the nursing...

  23. Georgia Highlands College Spring 2011

    CAllen44 replied to bailey8's topic in Georgia Nursing

    GHC is going to start requiring the TEAS for Fall 2011 admission. If you are accepted and haven't taken it, they will probably have you take it - that's what they did with our fall 2010 class....

  24. Transporting patients to testing

    CAllen44 replied to judymicurn's topic in General Nursing

    Our facility doesn't have any requirements on those. Our only requirement is that an RN be present if it is an ICU patient. I'm not even an aide, just a transporter, and I transport pts with chest...

  25. Georgia Highlands College Fall 2010

    CAllen44 replied to GaMommy81's topic in Georgia Nursing

    They're free, and I went to Cartersville for mine. Had to go there to get my books and my nursing ID made, anyway. I live in Kennesaw and it only takes about 25 minutes to get up
