I think working part time while in the part time program isn't bad. I'm not sure how it would work in the full time program to be honest. I know they have more to do in a semester. I was told that our class will be on Monday from 5:30 to 9:00 PM n...

I am at the Shelby campus in the part time program. Don't let the "part time" wording fool you....it is WORK! But I don't mind because I really like what I am learning. I feel for you, it was just a few short months ago I was in your position biti...

I just started the nursing program this fall and so far I love it. Good luck to all who are applying for the spring term!!

I'm doing great on my tests and hoping to do well on validations. I really like the program and I am sure you will as well. Good luck on your application!!

So I checked and no books....now they are saying middle of next week.

I called the book store (on Monday) on campus and they said they wouldn't have books before the first week of August. SO maybe they will have books next week.... Now, I also called Snoozy's and they said they hoped to have the bundle in Thursday or...

I haven't started yet, I start nursing classes this fall. But, from what they said at orientation they set up options for clinicals and you sign up for your days of choice. It doesn't sound like they assign you specific dates and times. But you ma...

Well, you would think the packets would be the same but I didn't see anyone sitting around me with anything above what I had. Hmmmm..... Thanks for the info!

Well, nothing of the kind was in my packet. I am in the night/weekend program, I wonder if that makes a difference.

What math package? To be honest I haven't seen ANY of the books for the fall term. The only thing I have done is to purchase a drug calculations book and I have been working in that book to get ready for fall term. I am ready to get my hands on th...

I am SOOOOO glad they changed that for our group!! I did NOT want to go to the Jefferson campus. How do you feel now that we have been to the meeting? I feel so much better now. :)

Does anyone know where the night/weekend classes are held? I have a friend who graduated from the program 2 years ago and she said they were held at St. Vincents, none were held on campus. Is that still how it works?

I am excited and nervous all at the same time. I doubt I sleep much tonight!!

Too funny!! Great minds think alike haha!! I knew I couldn't get it before Monday so I called the school. They were very nice to me and admitted that the wording needed to be changed because people always panic. I still have things set up to do C...

Got to love those firemen!! I am married to fireman and one of the men on his shift teaches healthcare provider CPR and he said he will come to my house to do the certification. I was on the phone calling him the second after I read my letter. When...

Yeah, me too!! I called because it said bring your CPR card with you and I don't have mine yet. Turns out they don't really mean that. They mean bring it if you have it but if you don't it's OK. LOL. I didn't hammer her with all the other questions...

So who got their letters from Jeff State today? I got mine in the mail. I have already called to ask questions. LOL. I am ready for Monday so all the questions will be answered. (hopefully) LOL

If I go to the book store and tell them I am in the night/weekend program will they know what books I need? I am not exactly sure what I am doing but I would LOVE to get my books today or tomorrow so I can begin looking at them this weekend.

Oh I know. That is exactly why I keep looking for additional resources to study. I'm looking for what ever I can get my hands on to help me learn.

Never mind Dana, I see where you posted an answer to that question already. LOL.

Thanks Dana!! This is a required book, correct? Not that it really matters. I have already purchased two books that aren't required but I believe they will be helpful and that is all that matters. I am looking forward to orientation so I know what ...

OK. What medical terminology book? Do they sell it at the book store or do we need to get it elsewhere? Do you know what the title of the book is? I got the drug calculations book yesterday so I can begin to prepare, plus I bought a flip book on ph...

bthomas....I earned my bachelors degree thinking "I want to be a nurse" all the while taking business classes. I graduated with a degree in management info systems and HATE it. Now I am BACK in school to do what I should have done all along. So ma...

Yeah, this registration thing has me confused as well. I'm wondering how we will know when and where the classes are, what books to buy....general questions. Like you said, I'm guessing they will cover all that next week. I would like to get my bo...

Thanks bthomas!! I have to work and do the part time program. I honestly wish I could quit and focus on school. I am worried it will cause a problem for me. If I have to I will cut back on my hours. I wont let work mess this up for me!!
