  1. I recently had a peer interview with a hospital, and it went well. I got a tour and lead nurse of the unit gave me a tour and told me to ask HR certain things about orientation since it'll conflict with school. I got a call hours later from HR saying...
  2. Can you take sciences with RN classes at MDC?

    You must COMPLETE ALL Pre-reqs to get into the generic RN. The LPN program is all over the place (I have inside info trust me). If you are performing well enough in your science courses, go ahead and apply for the generic RN once you are done with yo...

  7. Fake Nurses

    I agree with the OP... The funny thing is growing up I ALWAYS thought that CNAs were nurses and never wanted to be one. It took my adult life to realize that hey there is a difference here!! I think it causes confusion and if I am working hard for my...

    No. Mrs O said that you COULD do it in sessions so u don't sit for eight hours straight trying to do it. I've done about half of it already.
  14. Hillsborough Community College Fall 2011

    Are you serious? Couldn't you have just done another loan application? They told me when I was there that with the loan application, my classes would already be deferred until whenever funds are available... OMG Now I'm worried... I'm going over ther...

  19. Hillsborough Community College Fall 2011

    Question for those whor are accustomed to HCC. How long after school begins does Fin Aid begin to disburse?
  20. If you're in undergrad (asn/adn/as/aa) and only have 60hours you shouldn't get flagged until 90 hours. That is because of the 150% completion rule. It goes by courses attempted not credits received. For example if you withdrew from classes for whate...
  21. Just re-read your post. You're clearly seeking the BSN so you'll be fine!
  22. Are you going for the BSN or ASN? If you're going for the ASN schools won't pay out if you have a Bachelors. If you're going for the BSN then you'll be fine. There going to make you do a degree audit and have it signed by a counselor and will only pa...
