CAdams

I went to orientation last night and we have a pretty small class (approx. 21), everyone seems nice and eager to get started. I haven't been in school in almost 10 years and am VERY nervous!!!! Any words of wisdom or advice would be greatly appreciat...

Hi I was curious if anyone else here was starting the LPN evening program at Lincoln Tech in Hamden, CT. I just went to the school yesterday and was only looking to get info on the program and next thing I know I am taking the test and enrolling for ...

I love that tactic!!! I will def. keep it in mind. Congrats on your new endeavors

I'm a CNA that is also a LPN student in my first module. I am thankful to be going through basic CNA skills again. After doing it for 6+ years, it's nice to be refreshed on how things should be done. It's also been a bonding experience with all of my...

I definitely will thanks. Congrats to you on finishing and being valedictorian, that's awesome!!! I hear you all on the drama. There is some of that going on in my class, but I don't think the people involved will last long in the program. We've alre...

Hi sorry for the slow response, I have been COMPLETELY overwhelmed with school and work. I am in the Lincoln Tech Hamden, CT program (22mths nights). We had our first nursing exam this week and I got a 98. I was so stoked. I had to end up taking a cu...

Hi I just started Lincoln Tech program in Hamden, CT (this is my second week). Are you going days or nights? I am in the night program and will say that it is tough! I can't imagine being in the heavier course load of the day program, it's a 12 month...

Thanks so much, i will definitely keep you in mind

Thanks for the advice, I will keep it in mind.

Congrats on getting into LPN school!!! I wish you all the best :)

I LOVE that way of thinking!! I never thought of it like that. Makes me feel a bit better about the high cost of education. Thanks :)

Yes, I am going to a private school. Here in CT they just brought back the state LPN programs, however, they are so competitive there is no guarantee that you'd get in (as of right now they won't be accepting new students until Aug. 2012). So unfortu...

I am starting LPN school this coming Monday. I didn't get much in financial aid, but after all is said and done I will be paying just under $31,000. It includes all of my books as well, but like you think it's high.

I start LPN school this coming Monday. I am so nervous, but very excited as well. Best of luck to you. Maybe we can keep in touch and share our experiences.

I was accepted at Lincoln Tech in Hamden, CT. I will be starting Feb. 7th, 2011. I hear it's a hard program but I am determined to find a way to hang in there. I don't know anything about your school and have heard mixed reviews on mine, but my husba...

Hi I was hoping to get some feedback from others. I have been a CNA in CT for 6 years now and am about to embark on my new journey to become a LPN. Will my 6 years of experience hinder me (because I am set in my ways)? I am all for learning everythin...

I've heard that it is a strict program. I am a good student, and am not so concerned with that, but I will be extra cautious. Thanks and good luck to you!!

I work right now as a CNA, starting my LPN program in Feb. 2011. I work for Masonicare Home Health, they have offices all over CT and do hire LPN's, might be worth looking into. Good Luck!! www.Masonicare.org
