  2. MDC *Generic F/T* Fall 2011 ;-D

  3. MDC *Generic F/T* Fall 2011 ;-D

    I have my motorcycle, which has been my only vehicle for about 4 years now. It works well for me, but if we have to take a ton of books to class everyday, I don't know how it will work out. I live...

    Ugh. The more I think about it, the less I feel comfortable not having a car :/ Maybe once classes start, I'll find someone to carpool
  5. MDC *Generic F/T* Fall 2011 ;-D

    It is my understanding that the ATI testing tomorrow is more for tracking purposes and to help us be successful while in the nursing program. The testing throughout the program are proctored exams...

    Pixie- I also have to go to my PCP to get more documentation regarding my PPD's. Everything else seemed to be in order. I'm a bit confused when it comes to the background check clearing through MDC...

    Yay for getting through orientation! :) I already purchased the jacket and scrub top as well as the bag of nursing goodies :-P I am going to start looking online for some less expensive options for...

    We *Should* meet up before orientation! I'm all for people making cookies and bringing them in :) I'm starting to get a little nervous/frustrated. I just got another MMR shot, so hopefully the...
  9. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    Hey everyone... I do not have antibodies for measles or mumps! I am getting re-vaccinated on Thursday, but I was wondering if anyone knew if this will be acceptable? Technically, I had the titers,...
  10. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    There are scholarships available on the website that had the acceptance steps. However, from all of the advisers and people in the nursing department that I have spoken to, there are not any...
  11. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    Does anyone know how many students are admitted to each program? If it's not that many, there may only be one schedule. I have a degree from FIU, and the program was so small there was only one set...
  12. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    I have been told all along that we will be able to register on the day of or after orientation, assuming that all of our paperwork is in order. I know that you can not attend classes for the nursing...
  13. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    You can also go through the American Red Cross for the CPR BLS so long as you get the CPR AED for the professional rescuer. I've gone through the class a few times in my day, so I will just be...

    On Eagles- are you in the nursing program already? I would just like to get in, learn as much as possible, pass the boards, and become a great RN asp I know I was working 35-45 hours a week last...
  15. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    Just in case anyone else signed up and paid for the fingerprinting/background check: They do not begin until the 21st. I signed up for and had an appointment for today, only to wait an hour and a...
  16. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    I just got my email today- about 4pm, but was on a plane and didn't see it until we landed (yes, I've been glued to my phone's email account). I was accepted to both the generic full time and the...
  17. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    I just got the phone call to check my email. I have MDC email forwarded to my gmail, which I get on my phone. I couldn't help myself but to manually check my MDC email account anyway! I'm hoping...
  18. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    I can't remember the name of the person that I spoke to when I was having transcript issues, but I remember that she was in the very back of the advising office, and that she was the manager. I had...
  19. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    Yeah, I got a large, thick envelope in the mail today and was really excited until I turned it over and saw that it was just a disclosure packet from my bank :/ Awesome if they are also emailing us;...
  20. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    Completely off topic, but I just recalculated the program cost and realize that the actual nursing program from the point after the application process is 42 credits (NOT the 72 as outlined in the...
  21. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    From previous posts, I have some of the forms we will need. Of course the background check is required, as well as a physical, and immunization or proof of immunization. I currently have CPR for...
  22. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    RNfem- I'm not able to send private messages yet I have no idea as to whether or not we are required to have a current CPR certification, or which kind we will need before graduation. I think...
  23. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    Sophie- Your grades look pretty good, but the passing score for the TEAS is in the upper 50's. Unfortunately for those who are not great standardized test takers, that significantly decreases your...
  24. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    I went to advising the other day to ask a few questions- I'm very torn between the accelerated vs generic option. Here's what I found out: We should receive our acceptance letters in late June or...
  25. MDC Fall 2011 =)

    Dea- I agree with you 100%. I am actually one of those applying to both the accelerated and the generic programs. I am hoping to get into the generic and apply to the Baptist and Jackson scholars...
