    az_melanie replied to az_melanie's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I had surgery last month so obviously didn't respond, KDOLL, sorry!! Yes, we should meet up!! Did everyone get their immunizations? I have to go in tomorrow for my second tb read and then I am done...

  2. MCC-Spring 2011 Students

    az_melanie posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    For those of us who were accepted at MCC for spring 2011, I thought we could start our own thread! We can introduce ourselves and share any helpful info with eachother (ie. CPR places, shot places,...

  3. Anyone date stamped March thru June 2010 for Maricopa Community College waiting list?

    az_melanie replied to AmyStudentNurse's topic in Arizona Nursing

    My date/time stamp was for 2/09 and I only had one selection, MCC, which I did get. I am sure some schools have a bit longer list than others (like MCC, Gateway, and the part time options). Good...

    Katie-I got an email on Thursday with the registration PPWK in it and it goes through ALL of that stuff. Did you not get the email? If not, I'd call ASAP! The review class is during the first half...

    Hi Katie-Nice to meet you!! Yeah, it has been a long wait, that is for sure. Did you get your CPR card yet? I got mine last week. The lady who taught our class was hilarious and it was only $25!...

  8. vaccinations and tests needed for nursing school?

    az_melanie replied to AmericanChai's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I just got my Block 1 ppwk and it says you have to have 2 MMR's (if you show proof of this, you do NOT need to get the titer), 1 varicella (chicekn pox), 1 td in past 10 yrs, 3 HepB, and the 2 step...

  9. First Round Of Placement Set For October 5th

    az_melanie replied to Crystal74's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Crystal74, where do you see that there are 70 slots open? I am on the Maricopa RN Placement Application sttus page and it shows there are only 3 spots available. One at MCC, and two at GWCC (one...

  10. First Round Of Placement Set For October 5th

    az_melanie replied to Crystal74's topic in Arizona Nursing

    There are all those slots open because people are deferring or dropping out. Which is good if you have a 6/16/09 date stamp b/c you might get in!!! Fingers crossed

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

    az_melanie replied to NicolaL's topic in Arizona Nursing

    annek, I bet you will get in, you are SOOO close and people drop up until the very first day of class. I was going to do Nuc Med and I dropped out the day before class started, so someone else got my...

    az_melanie replied to twinieten's topic in Arizona Nursing

    KayL, I was date stamped 2/09 and just got in for the spring, so that was 4 semesters for me . But, I also only had one choice listed, as I wasn't willing to drive farther than MCC and didn't want to...

    az_melanie replied to az_melanie's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Congrats bellabarbiegirl too :)! My friend just started the MCC RN program this past Aug and her schedule is as follows: Mon/Tues lecture from 9-1 or 2. Wed/Thurs are lab days and they run 7:30-3....

  14. Date time stamp 10/8/10

    az_melanie replied to twinieten's topic in Arizona Nursing

    My guess would be Fall 2012 or Spring 2013. The first date you will 'officially' run for is the Fall 2011 class, so that will be semester 1, then Spring 2012 is semester 2, Fall 2012 semester 3 (if...

  15. No CGCC programs for spring???

    az_melanie replied to forestlakemommy's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I know that when they first started the program they only did a fall start. They told me that it may change as time goes on. Also, Catholic Healthcare West does a scholarship program through CGCC...

  16. First Round Of Placement Set For October 5th

    az_melanie replied to Crystal74's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I know this is a little late, but I had a Feb 20, 2009 date stamp and got my first and only choice of MCC. Can't wait, although I am freaking out already :). I am going to try to start our our...

  17. The skinny on ASU 2nd degree program

    az_melanie replied to twinieten's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I don't think this program is new by any means. I knew about it about 2 years ago and the advisor I spoke with said it was VERY competitive. The only thing different btwn this and if you had no...

  18. How much will books and supplies cost for Nursing School?

    az_melanie replied to bellabarbiegirl's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Yes, the books are about $900 for the entire program. My friend started block one at MCC this fall and she bought ALL of hers on Amazon for about $600-650. Plus the shipping is free

  19. The skinny on ASU 2nd degree program

    az_melanie replied to twinieten's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Thanks for the info, fifthwheel. I was thinking about going this route, since I have my BA already, but have decided its still way cheaper to do the MCC route ($4k) and then have my employer pay to...

  20. Which Maricopa CC has shortest wait list?

    az_melanie replied to lilmac81's topic in Arizona Nursing

    You're one tough mama! I can't imagine going back to school with my little ones still at home. That's why the wait hasn't bothered me. My baby just started Kindergarten, so now I have my days freed...

  21. Which Maricopa CC has shortest wait list?

    az_melanie replied to lilmac81's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Crystal-How cool that you come from a whole line of women nurses, that is pretty awesome :)! My mom was a dental hygienist, so healthcare runs in the family for me too. I swear the wait goes fast....

  22. Associates degree in nursing- any schools no waiting?

    az_melanie replied to AniaK's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Not for any public schools. You can pay $5k at a Maricopa Comm. College or $40k at private....I'm waiting, but I'm also a little cheap and don't want a ton of college debt

  23. Which Maricopa CC has shortest wait list?

    az_melanie replied to lilmac81's topic in Arizona Nursing

    The 2 yr wait actually goes by a lot faster than you think :). After you apply, most people still have a few prereqs to complete like BIO202 and BIO205, so by the time you finish those, it's like a...

  24. HELP Am I about to make a HUGE mistake?

    az_melanie replied to chrisly's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    $40k for 1 yr for an ADN....Hmmm, I too think something sounds fishy. Out west if you do an accelerated program (and of course you have to have all your prereqs like Micro/A&p 1 &...

  25. HELP Am I about to make a HUGE mistake?

    az_melanie replied to chrisly's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    $40K is A LOT! I'd wait the 2 ys to go to Community College. I promise it goes by really fast! And while you wait, you can work on classes to satisfy your BSN. I have been waiting to get in for...
