I am right there...about to take the plunge. I have had a good job with the phone company for the last 16 years. I am 35 with 2 children. I just got accepted into a 1+1 LPN to RN program. I will have to quit soon to go FT nursing student. I sometimes...

Has anyone been through a 1+1 LPN bridge program? I did not get a slot into the fall semeseter of my college for the RN program, but they did offer me a 1+1 bridge into their program. I would go to their partner school for 10.5 months and take the te...

Exactly, I think it is a great opportuntiy and I am going for it! Just would like to hear from someone who has been through this type of program for feedback..or just that push to say GO DO IT! Thanks!

I am a pre-nursing student and I am also very interested in oncology. After obtaining your RN liscense, are there other certifications that are needed to work in an oncology unit?

I am in the same boat with the rest of you :) I have a son that will be 7 next month and a daughter who will be 3 in Dec and I will be 36 in Sept! I am down to my last pre-nursing required class for one nursing school and have 1 more pre-req for a di...

:dncgbby: FANTASTIC! CONGRATULATIONS!

No, it is designed for existing LPN's to apply to the program and for people who have never had a day of experience in health care. The only advantage that LPN's have is they can Clep out of a semester of beginning nursing courses.

Thanks Sliver, I knew I read something on that somewhere! I need to get busy! Tricia, a lot of those classes can be taken online. I personally need a classroom setting. I took Algebra I after being out of h.school for 16 years. I will not lie, It wa...

I believe there may be some pre course workyou can do online with the exceptions of the science courses. I completed all of my pre-reqs on campus, with the exception of micro, which I am enrolled in now. What classes do you need to take? Are you plan...

My brother just got accepted into OU's NP program. I'm not sure what they look at as far as qualifications, but he does have his BSN a good GPA and has several years experience as an RN. He was accepted along with 5 other people into the program and...

I am waiting to hear from OSU/OKC to see if I got accepted into the Fall 2010 semester. I am getting nervous now. I took the Hesi once and scored an 81. my GPA is 3.65. I think I could have taken the HESI again to make a better score. I only lack com...

What kind of numbers did you have when you applied? I am going to apply again in the fall and I will have all pre-req's done with the exception of nutrition. I am thinking about retaking the HESI to see if I can bring my score up, I made an 81. Which...

I have completed just about all my pre-nursing courses there and plan on applying there and reapplying to OSU/OKC in the fall. I have enjoyed every class I have taken. I have always heard they have a good program. I know several nurses that have grad...

WOW, cut off was 87 points! Got my regrets letter, which is fine, I do not mind waiting another semester. I need to get micro and nutrition done and I should be good to go. Good luck to you in your future career. I plan on applying to Redlands as wel...

Looks like you have some awesome numbers. Like the above post, it all depends on the talent pool that applied. I think you have a great chance, but my opinion doesn't matter. I am also waiting for a letter for a college in Oklahoma. Good luck to you!

I called the college yesterday and they said they hope to have the "letters" sent out by friday! GOOD LUCK TO YOU!

Well, If I calculated correctly I am sitting at 78 that is without having physiology completed. I take my final for it today and should have a B in the class. They give several points for having physiology done. It would put me in a more comfortable ...

I was reading a little about the average cutoff for points. Wow that is high. I'm not sure I will have that many. Really makes me nervous. I am a transfer for Redlands, so I will not get any points for taking pre-course work at OSU. Did you ask them...
