  2. May 2011 NAU accelerated nursing program hopefuls!

    abvincent1 replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Congrats Street! Now I am even more nervous. You live in Flagstaff correct? I am in Phoenix, so may take a few days. Run you are in Montana, that should take a few days

    abvincent1 replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Does any one know the tuition for instate? I was looking at the website and clearly there are multiple different options. Says undergrad is around 3600/sem (continuing undergrad)---I am not sure...

  4. Accelerated programs...expensive or cheap?

    abvincent1 replied to johninalameda's topic in Male Nursing Students

    You do not need a "name" to succeed. You need a bachelor degree to go on to a Master degree, not a bachelor degree from JHU or Yale, or the laundry list of other significantly over-priced options....

    abvincent1 replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Hey thanks Street. I am sorry for any mis-info, I am just stressed to the core and went out with my friend last night and inquired endlessly about the process at this state school. He said "The...

    abvincent1 replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    To the two of you, Run and Lindy, who received phone calls from NAU undergrad congratulating you on admission to the undergraduate summer school, that is the typical sign the college of nursing has...

    abvincent1 replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Big Mama if you did not get admitted to NAU, where did you end up attending? If I may ask. In addition, an 88 HESI is an excellent score. I was told the avg for the accelerated program is mid 80s....

  8. May 2011 NAU accelerated nursing program hopefuls!

    abvincent1 replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Each of you is going to be admitted, you have all the essentials the school is looking for, so don't sweat it. I read an article the other day about NAUs program in 2008. It said they had 40...

    abvincent1 replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Sounds to me like every one of you make a great candidate. Just relax, no reason to worry as there is nothing you can do now to change the

    abvincent1 replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I have one, as well as a 4.0 in all my last 75 or so credit hours of college (including a 4.0 in graduate school). I will tell you this, most are attempting to compare him/herself to others, I am...

  11. May 2011 NAU accelerated nursing program hopefuls!

    abvincent1 replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Quick responses. I appreciate the conflict Run. As for my "age", I am not concerned in the slightest with that. What I was indirectly stating is as you get a little more aged, you don't have the...

  12. May 2011 NAU accelerated nursing program hopefuls!

    abvincent1 replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    This thread has turned silent as of late. I was curious how many of you applied to various schools. I sat down when I researched the steps to take in the career choice I have set and made a list of...

  13. May 2011 NAU accelerated nursing program hopefuls!

    abvincent1 replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Run you can access out of state tuition through the website (I think). NAU has a program with many other states in regard to undergrad tuition, but when I read the program they sent me nursing is NOT...

    I have a birthday this month as well. Lets just say I WISH I was turning 24 this

    abvincent1 replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    May I ask the age "range" of the others here? Do not feel obligated to answer, I am just curious if I am significantly "older" than most or just slightly

  16. May 2011 NAU accelerated nursing program hopefuls!

    abvincent1 replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    80 seems like a lot of applicants to me. If you read the material on the website, it states the following: How many students apply and how many are admitted? We admit 30 students per year, as...

  17. Pathology for NAU - Is it worth it?

    abvincent1 replied to Jacoba's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Why don't you take the course at Maricopa Community College? The comparable course is HRC 240. The cost is $290 If you are willing to pass NAU off the list because you don't want to take this class,...

  18. Lots of threads on tattoos but....

    abvincent1 replied to dreamer827's topic in General Nursing

    Unfortunately it works like this: you have the right to tattoo your body as you wish (e.g. arms, face, etc), but you need to understand you face the consequences from those actions by others. People...

  19. Lots of threads on tattoos but....

    abvincent1 replied to dreamer827's topic in General Nursing

    I think the only time it will impact you is perhaps in a job interview. However, our society is moving more toward a individual bias where the younger cohort is adopting a worldview more in line with...

  20. May 2011 NAU accelerated nursing program hopefuls!

    abvincent1 replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I hear ya, clearly they will base admissions on "numbers", but if it was exclusively numbers they wouldn't request letters of recommendation, volunteer, healthcare experience, etc. I suspect there...

  21. May 2011 NAU accelerated nursing program hopefuls!

    abvincent1 replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Well you should definitely stay enrolled. It appears as though they would not be through the paperwork necessary to decipher your question. It would not be good to drop in anticipation of not...

  22. May 2011 NAU accelerated nursing program hopefuls!

    abvincent1 replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Run, that is interesting question. I took Micro last semester and really enjoyed it. I took a parasitology course in college as well and loved it too! I think they will let each know by March. I...

    abvincent1 replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Just a waiting game. I hope we all get in too. I would be interested in knowing how many applicants they received this year. Any one

  24. MCC or ASU?

    abvincent1 replied to JRdaMacman's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Well, my advice to you is why do either? Look in to your alma mater's accelerated program. I applied there for this year's entrance. It requires a bachelor's degree, and the program can be...

  25. NYU ABSN program... feeling a little discouraged

    abvincent1 replied to lotsofsunshine's topic in New York Nursing

    Perhaps I wasn't clear, I do NOT remove programs with large quantities of minority (exactly the opposite, they are the first ones on my list), I eliminate programs that do not have enough men. I do...
