Hi Bea123, The ASBN program is more intense than anything you can ever imagine. I have been to several universities in different areas of study and you will find this the most intense crazy program you will ever experience on every level. I would say it is not possible to work during this program and still expect to pass... no joke. 90% or above is much harder than you would think. For instance: Just think about grasping Pharmacology in 2 weeks and passing a final with 90% or above. You will be a hermit at home 98% of the time. This means you will be teaching yourself for the most part. The other time is spent in labs (varying times and days) and exams. The modules are all different lengths of time and the clinical days also vary. Only the labs and exams are done on-campus...the rest is at home, online and reading. Occasional group projects require getting together with your assigned group (that you have the entire time you are in the program.) Your group becomes your family and friends during this time... you will all get very close throughout the stress and craziness. This will be your entire life for 14 months, there is no time or room for anything else. If I were you, I would apply anywhere and every where else first... as it is closer to 85-90K with all the fees, books, room and board etc.... Best regards and best of luck finding the right school for you!

That's a BIG CONGRATS!!!!!!!!

Will be driving so I can have a flexible schedule "to and from". Have to find a place to live and be back to work by Wed morning and all that jazz..... He! he!

OMG!!!! I just received a voice message from the director of admissions, had to call back and leave a voice message.....in the meantime, I found a lost email from June 1st inviting me to interview!!!! I can't believe it!!! How did I miss the email!!! So everyone....double check all your emails!!!

YES!!!! Just heard today! Will definitely see you on the 20th for Orientation. Getting exciting now! I will be driving, since I have to find place to live and from LA it's not that far.

Oh that would be great!!! Cali friends and study buddies!!! I'm pretty sure all my transcripts are in by now or they would have mentioned missing items.... Will definitely let you know as soon as I find out!!!

Congrats!!!!! That's great!!!! I figure they will have to let me know soon with Orientation on the 20th and school about 1 month away.... Have you decided on apt or house and what area yet?

Yes, I did. Just had my phone interview this morning. Couldn't get the time off to travel to LV, but orientation will be June 20 & 21 so will definitely be there then. I don't know for sure if they accepted me yet, but I'm being positive. What part of Cali are you from? I'll coming in from L.A. Will still have to find a place to live, quit my job, complete financing..Whew!

Thanks for all the information! Are you going to start in the July cohart?

Hi! Have you heard? Are you going in July? When is the exact start date in July?

Exactly, just hoping if they had more than usual to get through that they are just behind on the whole process right now...we can certainly hope for the best.... it's the waiting that is hard for sure!!!

Thanks for the info!!!!!:)

Me too! It is nerve-racking, but at least there is still a chance if no rejection letter...

Thank you...now I'll be glued to my computer everyday!!

Thanks so much for this information and good luck to you. Did your invite arrive via email or "snail mail?" Still anxiously awaiting some news...... Biting my nails.......!!!
