  1. Our Lady of Lourdes Nursing Program (Camden)

    beautygirlsmom replied to Rach1981's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    You too! We've got even more motivation to grasp it now - and I see tutoring sessions in my future! Although, ironically, I did MUCH better with the tutors at Rutgers than I did with the

    beautygirlsmom replied to Rach1981's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    I took it for the fall at Rutgers, but ended up leaving. It was two classes - chem lecture and chem lab, with two separate grades and two separate stresses. I'm headed back to Camden County to take...

    Ditto! I just got my letter as well. I still have to take chemistry this semester, but I've gotten either A or B in all the other pre-reqs I needed. I'm

    I haven't had to contact anyone, either. I'm wondering if things stay the way they are, if we need to reapply to be considered, or

    Has anyone seen that ---------------------- is no longer in enrollment at OLOL? I can't help but wonder if this means starting all over - he seemed very hands on, getting to know applicants...

    beautygirlsmom replied to Rach1981's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    Congratulations! I got an email from them today saying it was looking like Spring 2013 for me :-( I am in A&P 1 right now, A&P II in 2 weeks, then Chem and Micro in the fall. They must have...

    beautygirlsmom replied to Rach1981's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    You'll have to let me know how micro is - I have it in the fall, and debating whether to take it at Rutgers or Camden County. That's another class that scares

    beautygirlsmom replied to Rach1981's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    Yeah, I meant to check that - how far in I can be and still drop. Thanks for the reminder - I'll have to look that

    beautygirlsmom replied to Rach1981's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    5 week courses for each - it will be killer. The classes are from 9 in the morning to 1:10 in the afternoon, four days a week. I've already started reading, bought a coloring book, and will stock up...

    beautygirlsmom replied to Rach1981's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    I'm dreading Chemistry :-( I took Prep for Chem this semester, and think I got a really low A or a solid B - but the final (which was the only class out of 7 to have a cumulative final) was a killer....

    beautygirlsmom replied to Rach1981's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    I need A&P I&II (summer semesters); General Chemistry and Microbiology (both in the fall). I'll also have the World Civ done by the end of the first summer semester. You're in a much better...

    beautygirlsmom replied to Rach1981's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    The several blogs detailing the curriculum change have been removed - I am assuming as a result of the flack he got from the administration. It did not seem that he was meant to be providing that...

    beautygirlsmom replied to Rach1981's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    I spoke with ----------------------- at the open house at OLOL. They are working on becoming a BSN program through Immaculata College, and the curriculum changes seem driven by what will be necessary...

  14. Our Lady of Lourdes Nursing Program (Camden)

    beautygirlsmom replied to Rach1981's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    I think I'm going as well! I found World Civ during the first summer session in the morning, so I'm taking it then :-) It means morning and night classes the whole first summer session, but it will...

    beautygirlsmom replied to Rach1981's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    Actually, from his blog, he's got this: Courses deleted from our Program to reflect the Fall of 2012 class: Elements of Statistics, Intro to Nursing & Nutrition. - of course, I've already done two...

    beautygirlsmom replied to Rach1981's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    I'm a bit irked that they wouldn't have notified people of the changes - because they are MAJOR changes. And I'm irked that I've already taken nutrition and statistics, and JUST got his permission...

    beautygirlsmom replied to Rach1981's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    I think the reason there aren't more evening and weekend clinicals is because of the lack of supervision. Overnight, you don't get very much hands on patient experience, and there aren't as many...

  18. Our Lady of Lourdes Nursing Program (Camden)

    beautygirlsmom replied to Rach1981's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    I wish I could help, but I'm not sure. I got the impression that most schools have day time clinicals. I actually did, though, speak with a school in FL (Rasmussen College) that wanted students to...

    beautygirlsmom replied to Rach1981's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    I need A&P I and II (taking them over the summer); the Intro to Nursing (summer); Chemistry and Microbiology (fall). So, I'll be finished well before the start of the program. I

    beautygirlsmom replied to Rach1981's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    One of the classes I needed as a pre-req is Intro to Nursing. I took my letter over to Camden County today to register, and they said I couldn't register until I was accepted and OLOL put a petition...

  21. Our Lady of Lourdes Nursing Program (Camden)

    beautygirlsmom replied to Rach1981's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    So, I got an email back from him. This is what I got back: I wrote to him: “I understood that classes that were in progress or would be completed by the three semester deadline would conditionally...

  22. Our Lady of Lourdes Nursing Program (Camden)

    beautygirlsmom replied to Rach1981's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    So I got a letter today, and I'm somewhat confused. When I called about applying, I told them what pre-reqs I needed. They told me to apply and I'd get a "conditional" acceptance, and as long as I...

    You too, Rachel! I hope we see each other on the first day of class next August!! Seems like a long time

    beautygirlsmom replied to Rach1981's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    I guess the only concern left for me about OLOL is that it's only an associate's degree program. I have a feeling by the time I finish, you'll need a BSN to get a job as a nurse. It won't be that...
