Sorry Scott, I didn't mean to quote you on my answer. I was meaning to quote deniseashley in my post

Ok go onto the Blackboard 9.1 version and click onto the "Course" Tab. Type into the Course search box at the top of the left hand side. Type in "Orientation" and it display a list...I believe the Nursing Orientation is the third one down. Click on the arrows that are pointing down and Enroll into the orientation course. Hope that helps :)

Hi deniseashley, Are you logging on the the Blackboard 8.0 or 9.1 version? I am not sure, but I believe you have to access it from 8.0. You would click on resources and then select the nurse orientation tab and go from there. Good Luck!

J845, I am taking that this summer so I have no insight as of yet. @Lee, can you inbox me your professor for 1020? Thanks

There are a lot of things to get done before starting the program. I need to get started now because June will be here before we know and that is when everything is due. I signed up for CPR already and now I guess I need to get shot records and shots done.

You are right! If it is more convenient for you, then 5 more months of waiting won't hurt you :-) Good Luck with Everything!

LeahMarie, I was not aware of this either. I chose the evening/night because the Eastern campus was closer to me vs. the metro.

Hi DramaQueen, They haven't sent out any additional info since asking if people wanted to transfer. We should be getting an email in April. Which campus are you going to and will you be day or evening?

Ok, thanks for info ScottE! No, I can't get onto the group site as of yet! Heidi said she would add me in April, I believe.

Yes, I will keep you updated as I go through the process. That way you will have a head start when it's your turn :)

qcobra, Oh by the way, congrats on your getting married. And no, they haven't sent the emails out yet. They said to look for the email in April.

I just called them and explained my wedding and honeymoon situation and they told me. I wanted to make sure I didn't book my honeymoon during the orientation date so they understood and told me. I think the date is different for the accelerated program. The generic orientation date is May 26th.

Thanks for the info Scott! I found out the orientation date today because I am getting married in May and I wanted to make sure it didn't happen to fall on the Friday I was getting married and I found out the orientation is the day before my Wedding.....Whoo...Barely Made it! I am going to have a hectic week but it will be well worth it. Well, that is good you are doing well and it's easy for you. That sucks that those others are failing....I feel like a lot of people don't give all of the effort required and they are just taking up space someone else who is more serious about it could have used.

Did they cancel South Pointe I wonder? That is the closest one to me but either way, I have to go wherever is available.

Wow LeahMarie, You have been waiting a little while to actually start the program. But you are right...time does fly and our orientation is coming up in May and that is right around the corner. I am so anxious and ready to get it going already :-)

That is good! Make sure you call the nursing dept a little bit before the grades are posted and again when they actually do post. Good Luck! Let me know if you have any other questions about the process. :)

J845, I applied at the end of the summer semester in 2010. I was accepted by September 2010. Besides the background part, things went pretty smoothly. So, will you be done with your pre-reqs at the end of this semester?

ScottE Since we are starting in August, when do you think we will get our information on getting our vaccines and cpr classes done? By the way, how are your classes coming along so far? Are they hard and/or very time consuming? Thanks

Qcobra is right! Make sure you get the background check done quickly. There was a mishap with mine and I had to wait a whole month afterwards to receive my app. Fortunately, it didn't affect me getting into the Fall 2011 program but it easily could have because the apps only go out once a month so get things done promptly. Good Luck in your App process :-)

LeahMarie, That was actually a good question because I wondered the same thing. I didn't know if the clinicals were just limited or both. Thanks for the clarification ScottE. Mel

LeahMarie & Crfry....I will also be at the Eastern campus for the evening/weekend classes. I do believe time will fly by. The year is just about over. I can't wait to start. I still have a&p II and Micro to finish. I am taking a & p in the spring and hopefully micro in the summer, although I do not like summer classes because they are so crammed. Well, see you two soon

Hi All, I was looking for fellow students that will be starting the nursing program in the Fall of 2011. I am excited :yeah:about starting and just looking for others who I might be in class with. If anyone has any information on what the process is like before hand, please let me know. Thanks in advance

Ok, Thanks. I called them last week and they said to go ahead and send in my application and they will keep it on file until I finish my pre-reqs in the Spring. I am not sure why they told me something different. Well, I hope they gave me correct information over the phone. Good luck to you as well!

Hello All! I am trying to gather some information on the process to get into HSN. I will be done with my pre-reqs by the end of spring and hope to get into HSN by Fall 2011. Can I go ahead and fill out the application now to get the process started? Originally, I was going for tri-c but I have a feeling I won't make it into the Fall 2011 because they said they didn't get my background check receipt after faxing it twice. They already sent out the letters for September and I now have to wait for the apps to go out in Oct. I am thinking Fall 2011 will be full by then. If anyone has info on HSN, please let me know. Thanks
