Purchasing Textbooks? Best ways/cheapest?
Cherokee, I have one undergraduate degree already also, and working toward my second (BSN). I have applied for student loan funds thru FAFSA, and have been awarded. They will loan you money toward a second bachelor's degree, but only up to 60 credit hours (I think, would have to verify, but it is right around that number). Once you meet that credit hour limit, they put you on Student aid suspension. You can either appeal it, turn in a Graduation plan and see if they will continue to loan you money - or find funds some other way (alternative loans - Sallie Mae has one with interest that is not outrageous, or scholarships). Also, your school may have scholarships that are not available thru FAFSA. I filled out applications for scholarships thru my University financial aid Dept., then also thru the Nursing Dept. (Nursing Dept. had some specific to nursing students and the applications are not avail. thru the University financial aid dept.). Finances is a MAJOR concern of mine, as you can probably figure out, LOL. Just thought I'd share the information I've learned along the way. Hope it helps.

Purchasing Textbooks? Best ways/cheapest?
Have you tried Walmart?? They also sell textbooks, but only online. Last semester I comparison shopped and Walmart had the best price, and the shipping was not as expensive too. Here's a link to their textbook webpage: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/catalog.gsp?cat=58294&path=0%3A3920%3A58294 link to nursing section: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/catalog.gsp?cat=18582&path=0%3A3920%3A58294%3A102606%3A18582

Needed: Feedback from nurses to complete assignment
Hello everyone (waving hello) :) . I just registered today in order to complete a class assignment. I need your help. Here's the scoop: I am in my second semester of nursing clinicals. This summer, I am taking a required advocacy course, and the instructor has given us an assignment - to log on to a nursing chat room and obtain feedback about how people feel about nurses becoming personally involved with a patient. I know that this is somewhat vague, but don't want to lead anyone one way or the other. There is no wrong answer. Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated. Look forward to chatting with you all.
