    CJ223 replied to Nikki819's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    Kbatch.... the info packet says that you must submit ALL transcripts, regardless of whether or not they apply as transfer credits. If it says you must do this, and you ignore it... and then after...

  10. Part time/evening and weekend clinicals?

    CJ223 replied to ks430's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    It doesn't matter which of the CC's you take your pre-req's at... and yes many of the "soft sciences" are available online. I have done everything online except for the classes that require a lab. I...

  11. Part time/evening and weekend clinicals?

    CJ223 replied to ks430's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    Northwestern CT Community College in Winsted offers a strictly night/weekend program (classes & clinicals). I believe it's Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday evenings... and it goes through the summer...

    CJ223 replied to Klober's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    STCC in Springfield has a ultrasonographer degree and certificate program. Not sure how close you are to the state line, but it's a straight-shot up I-91 and pretty easy to get

  13. I want to go back to school for nursing. Please help advise!!!

    CJ223 replied to CTMomof2's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    You'll have to take pre-reqs no matter what program you go for... I'd say take your pre-req sciences at a community college and then apply to a MEIN

  14. Applying this fall 2011

    CJ223 replied to CNAnursingstudent's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    I don't know anything about the other schools... but NWCC in Winsted doesn't start until the following spring. (So if you apply Fall 2011, you wont start classes until Spring 2013). This one is also...

  15. What to do regarding school and nursing

    CJ223 replied to lilshorty4211's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    Did you take all of your pre-req's at Goodwin? If that is the case.., they won't transfer to any of the CT Comm Colleges, and you'll most likely have to take them again. Keep that in mind as you make...

    AH! Now I see what you were getting at. Thanks for clearing that one up for me, and anyone else who was reading and wondering the same

    CJ223 replied to Nikki819's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    What "Dosage Calc" course are you talking about? I didn't see one for the CT Comm Colleges (I did see that for STCC, though.) I don't think that the CT Comm Colleges are going to take that Dosage Calc...

  19. TEAS exam...results :-(

    CJ223 replied to ohnevah's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    First, it's really important to specify which version of the TEAS you took. Version 5 is much different and more difficult than Versions 3/4... and the scoring is different on the v5 as well. There...

  20. Talked to an admissions person at UConn yesterday

    CJ223 replied to SwampCat's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    That sounds like a great plan! (AND I hear ya on the "Outlaws" LOL!) How far is your commute to Storrs? I'm also keeping UConn in my back pocket, but I don't know that I can handle the

    CJ223 replied to Nikki819's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    My plan is to get into an RN-BSN bridge program immediately after obtaining the associates. It seems as though it's much easier to get into a BSN program (at the 4-year schools within commuting...

    CJ223 replied to Nikki819's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    Yes, I do know exactly what you're talking about... in my opinion, a 3.44 should NOT have to rely on the lottery. What I'm saying is that without the lottery, the GPA "cut-off" would be a little...

    CJ223 replied to Nikki819's topic in Connecticut Nursing
