  1. What would you do in my position? Phoenix Spanish Rn program or this job?

    az_melanie replied to NUR151's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Everyone on the RN list through MCCD got the bilingual email, so I would encourage you to not make your decision on that. I'd do the fitness training and save up the $$ from that to pay for RN school...

  2. Any RN evening programs in AZ?

    az_melanie replied to Jdahl's topic in Arizona Nursing

    tlc, UoP only has an RN program if you already are an RN. They convert your ADN to an RN or if you already have your BSN to a

  3. Interesting read from AZ state board of nursing

    az_melanie replied to Hoozdo's topic in Arizona Nursing

    De-pressing! BUT, one has to hope that the economy will be turning around in the next 2-3 yrs and things will improve. It can't stay this way forever. We just need to perservere and make as many...

  4. Anyone else 06/16/09 08:06:17AM?

    az_melanie replied to NicolaL's topic in Arizona Nursing

    kdoll...Gateway and MCC do have great reputations and I am sure since we have similar date/time stamps that we'll both get in for the fall (4 semester wait, can you believe it?!) I'd be very cautios...

  5. Anyone else 06/16/09 08:06:17AM?

    az_melanie replied to NicolaL's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Hi I'mdown4that-Yes, I did have to decline the Banner cohort for July . My DH got into ASU's MBA program and it was the exact same times! We have kids, so there was no way I was going to find a...

  6. Any RN evening programs in AZ?

    az_melanie replied to Jdahl's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Yep Gateway does I believe once a year. Banner did one a year at Gateway, but they stopped their scholarship program. I know that Rio is online, but I've heard that they stopped doing that? I think...

  7. Anyone else 06/16/09 08:06:17AM?

    az_melanie replied to NicolaL's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Hey KDOLL-I am right there with you. My stamp is 02/20/2009 08:03:29AM and I too, have yet to be placed. I did call the district office and someone I spoke to on the phone did look up where I was at...

  8. Flashcard Suggestion for A&P class

    az_melanie replied to MacMaster's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Sometimes I think its NOT a good idea to start studying before class actually starts. I find that if I open my books before class I get overwhelmed with whats in there and you might waste valuable...

  9. Anyone else 06/16/09 08:06:17AM?

    az_melanie replied to NicolaL's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Well, I guess only time will tell!! Don't forget though, a Feb person may have gotten in, but the April people still need to be placed as well! But, best of luck to you...

  10. Anyone else 06/16/09 08:06:17AM?

    az_melanie replied to NicolaL's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I think your friend must have gotten very lucky or had lots of schools listed on her application :). If your date stamp is in June 09, that means the first semester you were eligible for was Spring...

  11. July 2010 Cohort Banner NFP

    az_melanie replied to mamabear3755's topic in Arizona Nursing

    The July 2010 cohort will be the last for Banner, as the program is being phased out. Total

  12. Students on the MCC waiting list: lets get a jump start on studying

    az_melanie replied to starz_girl_1's topic in Arizona Nursing

    AZ_RN2B-Are you saying you're doing the Banner cohort at Gateway in Oct 2010? Or does Gateway have an Oct cohort that's accelerated? Just curious, as we were told that the July 2010 Banner cohort is...

  13. BIO 205?

    az_melanie replied to koalakoala's topic in Arizona Nursing

    My vote is for in person. But, it all depends on your learning style. I need to see it and hear someone explain it. Plus, i can't imagine doing the labs at home. It's a tough class and I think...

  14. I am a little bit concerned...

    az_melanie replied to aabdelhadi88's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Yes, I was thinking of applying for ASU, but didn't want to pay $15k, when I can do it $3500 and the advisor told me the average GPA for those entering was 3.85 and that was for all of your science...

  15. Anybody else here with a 6/11/10 Date/Time stamp or closer?

    az_melanie replied to akadimkz's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Just for comparison sake, I have a Feb 09 date stamp and I am still waiting to get in. I *should* be getting into the Spring 2011 group, so that's a 4 semester wait for me. If you have a June date...

  16. Flashcard Suggestion for A&P class

    az_melanie replied to MacMaster's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Yeah, I am with back2class. Don't bother with the flashcards :). If you go to class, take notes, read the material and study, you'll be fine! It's really not that bad, but you have to study and you...

  17. Anyone else 06/16/09 08:06:17AM?

    az_melanie replied to NicolaL's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm also on the wait list for nursing school and I have a Feb 09 date stamp. I spoke to someone at the district office and they informed me that I have a pretty good chance of getting in for Jan...

  18. Those Accepted For Banner Fellows @ Gateway July 2010

    az_melanie replied to WannaBeBanner's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Yes, I hope our packets come ASAP :). I saw one of you lives in QC and another in Chandler. I am in Gilbert, so close to you two! Anyone else on the east side? It'd be nice to meet up with some of...

  19. Banner Employee priority placement in program.

    az_melanie replied to akadimkz's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Arbor-It's crazy and seems to be a bit 'secretive' to me how they do the whole wiating list thing! I think it stinks that you can't find out where you are on the list... As for the last class for the...

  20. Banner Employee priority placement in program.

    az_melanie replied to akadimkz's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I honestly do not think that working for the hospital gives you preference. The only way this happens is if you get in through the Banner Nurse Fellows program (which is a class of 30 students who...

  21. Those Accepted For Banner Fellows @ Gateway July 2010

    az_melanie replied to WannaBeBanner's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Hey there, I too, will be starting the part time program with you guys. All I know is that orientation is July 6th (time???) and that we start classes the week of July 12th. I emailed Carrie today...
