Hi, My husband and I will be moving to Albuquerque in July of this year (2014). I have never been to this area before, and am wondering if anyone has insight on places to apply for jobs, pay scale for a BSN, what the area is like, good places to live...

Oops I just saw this right now! Hope your interview went good :)

Questioning* not questing lol

I had a 3.9 GPA, and an 80 on the TEAS when I applied. I applied to the winter quarter, and got accepted. But many people are accepted with grades below mine, it is totally doable. If you are questing your grades apply anyway because they have a pipe...

I a student at llu right now for my BSN. If you have any questions, feel free and ask!

I was wondering if anyone who has been a valor nurse could answer a few of my questions I have about the program? I am wondering if you get experience in all of the units that the va offers. I am interested in becoming an ICU nurse after graduation? ...

Glad I could help! I just want to clarify that we are not guaranteed a job after graduation, there has to be an opening on that floor, and we still have to apply and interview, but it helps that we have done our clinicals and practicum at llu, and th...

The school works with your schedule as much as they can. The classes themselves are set and are not negotiable (accept for some non nursing classes such as religion and writing, which have a few time options) but the school does let you request a cli...

Oh and I forgot to mention, that at llu you are guaranteed the classes you need no matter what, which is such a relief because my whole prerequisite time was spent trying and praying that I get my classes, so it is really nice not to have to worry ab...

Hi, I am a student at llu right now, so my views may be a bit biased but I love my school so much. The cost is more but it is so worth it, and they give out lots of scholarships to help ease the cost. Since llu also has many hospitals we get the best...

Good luck guys! I started at llu last winter so I know the wait can be tough, but if you have any questions about the program feel free to ask. It made me a whole lot less nervous about starting having someone to ask questions about what's was gettin...

oh and you need the nursing skills DVD's.

The test has 50 multiple choice questions. I studied by reading and memorizing all of the flashcards, then I did the back of the book questions multiple times too, until i knew those. Everyone passed the medical terminology test, i am not sure how ev...

Hi, I am also finishing my first quarter. you guys will all do great! you will probably feel very overwhelmed the first few weeks, because you have much more work than normal in order to prepare you for clinicals. Dont get discouraged, it calms down ...

that was for @missxrara

i have a quick question, are these shoes acceptable for clinicals in white? http://www.dansko.com/Womens/Footwear/Collections/Stapled%20Clog/Marah/White%20Box/

Hi, I was just recently accepted to a bsn program that starts this winter. I have a very flexible job right now that will allow me to work one day a week if i need to. I actually do not have to work while in nursing school, because my plan this whole...

@ foreverLaur , that sounds like an awesome job to have? how did you find out about that? and thanks everyone else for the replies. As for now i will not be able to work very much, I will be at school and the hospital at least 30 hours a week. I am a...

thanks for the help, I found the section that showed the cpr/first aid requirements

Also does anyone know if we will be getting a packet in the mail too? I was wondering if we will get our new student list of stuff to buy after we register for classes or before? Just wondering because I would like to start buying stuff now to ease ...

Do they require a cpr/first aid certification to begin the courses? I am looking at the new student portal and all it says I have left to do is immunizations and my final transcripts once this semester is over. Is there a spot on the student portal t...

I received emails from loma Linda prompting me to start my financial aid stuff a few months back, but if you never received the emails you can log onto the LLU website and view what you need to turn in. Also you can go to their office and get all the...

If I get in I think I am going to quit my job for the first semester at least, then try and get a part time job as a unit secretary or something in the hospital environment maybe the second semester or the first summer we would have off. If I dont ge...

If you guys get in what are your plans for working. Are you going to do school only, or work part time and school? Just wondering what everyones plans are.

My* email, not me email lol sorry
