  1. NVCC Class of 2013 Meet and Greet + Q&A

    excitedtobehere replied to callduck's topic in Virginia Nursing

    I also STRONGLY recommend checking NCLEX pass rates. I distinctly remember one of those schools listed as being pretty bad. Don't recall the stats for the other. I'm not really much help recommending...

  2. NVCC Class of 2013 Meet and Greet + Q&A

    excitedtobehere replied to callduck's topic in Virginia Nursing

    No problem! As Martha said, NVCC doesn't care which sequence you take. Your likelihood of being accepted is the same. I wanted to refer you to another thread that I responded in, as I think it...

  3. NVCC Class of 2013 Meet and Greet + Q&A

    excitedtobehere replied to callduck's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Hi NOVA EMT, I think you mistook everyone’s silence for rudeness, but the reality is, they don’t share this information with the students, nor are they obligated to. All we can do is notice when...

  4. Attention Nurses....

    excitedtobehere replied to jesskidding's topic in General Nursing

    I think it's great that she ponders these types of things without being prodded to do so, if indeed that is the case. For what it's worth, my nursing classes start next Monday, and guess what question...

  5. NVCC Class of 2013 Meet and Greet + Q&A

    excitedtobehere replied to callduck's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Hi Tina! I'm not sure if you've already heard from Carolyn, but I'm definitely interested in carpooling! I can't tell you how thrilled I am that there are so many people out this way! I got to meet...

  6. NVCC Class of 2013 Meet and Greet + Q&A

    excitedtobehere replied to callduck's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Hi Dave! You're right... I think Carolyn found 5 people (including myself) in our class that live in Loudoun. You make 6. A carpool is definitely the way to go. I guess when it gets closer, we can...

  7. NVCC Class of 2013 Meet and Greet + Q&A

    excitedtobehere replied to callduck's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Yay! Then I guess I'll sign up now! I'm thrilled it's less expensive and shorter than MEC's! I'm 5'9, so I usually need a 33.5 inch inseam. Maybe they have more sizes if I actually go in to the...

  9. Acceptance to NVCC Fall 2011 Program!!!

    excitedtobehere replied to NursingGCW's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Oh no! I'm so sorry! My friend got bad news as well... Hopefully, they've told you what you can do for next year to make yourself more competitive, and you can start chipping away at your...

  10. Acceptance to NVCC Fall 2011 Program!!!

    excitedtobehere replied to NursingGCW's topic in Virginia Nursing

    150 applicants doesn't sound right to me... I can tell you, based on the sheer number of people that were in the MEC testing center on the last day, that that number is highly unlikely. The line to...

  11. Acceptance to NVCC Fall 2011 Program!!!

    excitedtobehere replied to NursingGCW's topic in Virginia Nursing

    It feels that way! Luckily, the CPR classes are pretty frequent, so it should be easy to find one that works with your schedule. This background check business/drug test I'm wondering about... Sounds...

  14. Acceptance to NVCC Fall 2011 Program!!!

    excitedtobehere replied to NursingGCW's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Exactly! Not to mention saving an hour and a half of our time! A lot closer, too! It's definitely AHA, but I'll verify with Mrs. Vito just to be sure. Thanks,

  15. Acceptance to NVCC Fall 2011 Program!!!

    excitedtobehere replied to NursingGCW's topic in Virginia Nursing

    It appears to have been sent to everyone that received a letter so far... At least from what I can tell from this website and from some people in my current classes. One of my friends didn't receive...

  16. Acceptance to NVCC Fall 2011 Program!!!

    excitedtobehere replied to NursingGCW's topic in Virginia Nursing

    I've gotta say, Inova's BLS for Healthcare Providers is $22 cheaper, and only 5 hours vs. 6.5 at NVCC. And for me, Loudoun Hospital is right next to me. I think I may take it though the hospital....

  17. Acceptance to NVCC Fall 2011 Program!!!

    excitedtobehere replied to NursingGCW's topic in Virginia Nursing

    My friend hasn't heard anything yet either... Don't give up hope! According to an email I got today from MEC, acceptance letters were mailed out Friday. They said if you haven't gotten yours yet,...

    excitedtobehere replied to NursingGCW's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Perfect! Thanks so much!! I guess I'll sign up ASAP!

  19. Acceptance to NVCC Fall 2011 Program!!!

    excitedtobehere replied to NursingGCW's topic in Virginia Nursing

    I think I'm going to wait for the organization link to become active in Blackboard, because it supposedly will answer our questions about what needs to be done. Hopefully, they'll have recommended...

  20. Acceptance to NVCC Fall 2011 Program!!!

    excitedtobehere replied to NursingGCW's topic in Virginia Nursing

    I can't decide if I'm going to work or not. The fact that I won't have any concrete class times until the last minute kind of ruins any planning ahead. I guess I'll have to wait and see... I did...

  21. Is anyone waiting on acceptance letters for their fall 2011 program

    excitedtobehere replied to NursingGCW's topic in General Students

    Awww! I know how hard the wait is. I just got my acceptance letter today. Whatever you do, don't start doubting yourself! Focus on doing well in your class to keep yourself busy. And try not to...

  22. Acceptance to NVCC Fall 2011 Program!!!

    excitedtobehere replied to NursingGCW's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Hey guys! I'm in!!!! The ONE day I didn't jump the mailman for the mail. It figures! :) I also didn't get anything about a background check either... I guess I'll call the campus on Monday and...

  23. Acceptance to NVCC Fall 2011 Program!!!

    excitedtobehere replied to NursingGCW's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Mine says it too, but it also has my general studies active, as well as my prior business degree active. I'm wondering if it's only there because I declared it myself before I knew we were supposed to...

  24. Acceptance to NVCC Fall 2011 Program!!!

    excitedtobehere replied to NursingGCW's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Wow! I'm shocked that's how they do things. That makes it really hard to plan anything! I just called MEC and they said the letters are being "prepared" and have NOT been sent out yet. Looks like the...

  25. Acceptance to NVCC Fall 2011 Program!!!

    excitedtobehere replied to NursingGCW's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Oh! That wasn't directed at you! :) I appreciate the response! I've heard NOTHING so I was just curious if anyone else had... For my own sake, I hope it's sooner. I'm trying to figure out my...
