LeLe, BSN, RN

For years, I was reluctant to apply to LaSalle while finishing my pre-reqs at CCP. I guess I was intimidated, countless people told me to apply...but I put it off, fearing rejection. May 2012, I finally applied...studied for the NLN on-and-off the ...

Almost 19 months since my initial post...time flies. Life in LaSalle's Achieve Nursing program is never dull! They have put in place so many parameters to make sure that we do well on the boards. This transition is not easy, on the staff or student...

The program is NOT a cake walk. It will take alot of dedication, sacrifice, and hardwork if you want to get A's and B's. The program is set up to accommodate those who work in the day. I'm almost one year in...and I can tell you that I have missed...

@Polysuazo...You can not let what seems like failure to get you down...I applied several times and was flat out rejected...I didnt give up. If you truly want it ask the advisor what you can do in the mean time to make your application better...if you...

This is the only book I used as well. :)

I too agree with LadyFree28...get the review book and study. I took that book everywhere. I practiced off and on the entire summer and it paid off. I did the practice test and used the cd that came with the book...It really prepared me for the exam.

I'm so very happy for you...Congratulations!

Let me offer my two cents. When searching for an AP course ask other students how they liked the professor, trust me they know! If you hear..."don't take so-and-so's class" heed the warning. The best way to learn is to find a good teacher! Some pro...

I do not think that all hope is lost. I would strive to kick butt in the two science classes that you will take in the Fall B+ or better...that way your grades will average out. Summer accelerated courses are TOUGH (as you know)! I took AP II and it...

I have my orientation on 8/15 and begin classes the week of 8/26. I have purchased basically everything, and the books were gifted to me by a student who no longer needs them (thank goodness they didn't change the books). I too had to get a two-step...

Congratulations!!!

Congrats Cjprc40 on your acceptance! I received mine a few weeks ago...I cried "happy" tears!

It's official!! I'm IN!! Hot Diggity!

So excited! Found out that I was accepted to my first and only choice. It has been a long journey, as I have applied to other programs in the past...but my grades weren't were they should have been. After many tears, sleepless nights, and course r...

Congratulations...

@TxGirl1982 I too, have always wanted to pursue nursing but I let too many "other" things distract me (life). I've been thinking lately about "shoulda, coulda, woulda's" but the truth is...everything happens as it should. My (younger) sister inspired...

I totally agree with you...I get upset when I get an A-! My son thinks I'm nuts.

Hello people...I'm 34, mommy of two; work full time, in Philly. Just completed what seemed like a million pre-reqs but was only 22 starting a 2 ½ year part-time program and I am so excited. My college career started rocky...but I finished strong. ...

I'm so stinking happy for you...congratulations!

I also only applied to one school and I'm playing the waiting game and its painful. I have tons of papers to complete and a final to study for...but I stll manage to stalk my email accounts (3 of them) & my mailbox. I only want to know if its g...

HeatherL, is there any one thing that is truly important to have your first year (i.e. an additional study guide). I've followed your advice and made all my appointments the end of this month/beginning of May. I guess we'll know if we are official...

Syfa, So how was your first semester...was it what you expected? How did you manage your time studyin...

Hi Angie-Baby... I'm so sorry to hear that you did not get into LaSalle. When searching for programs I looked at Neumann, they have (in 2012) an evening program. I don't know how it compares to LaSalle but I guess it's worth a look...and Cedar Cres...
