    kmp5 replied to starrysky15's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I'm a UNG graduate (just graduated this month) and all mail from Dahlonega got to me in Suwanee in just one day. My fingers are crossed for you all! I was waitlisted the year that I applied and I...

  3. Acceptance letters from N Georgia (UNG) Fall 2013

    kmp5 replied to starrysky15's topic in Georgia Nursing

    This isn't true at all, at least for nursing classes. I'm about to graduate from UNG's nursing program and go to the Forsyth campus. The way the nursing classes work is that you attend class at...

  4. Anyone applying to NGCSU Fall 2012?

    kmp5 replied to TheNoviceNurse16's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I would recommend that you get the care plan book for 2nd semester, as that's when we had to write 2 care plans. I actually got 2 different ones and they were both helpful. Care plans are *very*...

    kmp5 replied to TheNoviceNurse16's topic in Georgia Nursing

    2nd years were told that we needed to wear our SL shirts and khakis for Orientation. To access the online class, go to Banner the first day of class and you should be able to get into that class...

  6. Anyone applying to NGCSU Fall 2012?

    kmp5 replied to TheNoviceNurse16's topic in Georgia Nursing

    My friend was in the middle top of the waitlist and got notified towards the end of July last year (maybe July 21st or 22nd), so don't give up hope. Also, I don't know if it matters what campus you...

    NAA MOMO, The hospitals that 1st year students went to last year were: Northeast Georgia, Johns Creek, the hospital in Dahlonega and one further north (blanking on their names). Unless things have...

  8. Child care North Georgia

    kmp5 replied to lpenaloza's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Where do you live? I go to NGCSU nursing school myself (starting 2nd year at the Gainesville campus) but thankfully don't need daycare as my kids are old enough to be left alone. If you live near a...

    kmp5 replied to TheNoviceNurse16's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Class usually started at either 9 or 10, depending on the semester. We had to be at clinical on the floor by 6:30. It took me about 45 mins to get

  10. Thinking of starting nursing school at 47

    kmp5 replied to suzilks1's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I turned 50 this year and am going to be starting my 2nd year of an ADN program in August. If you really, truly want to be a nurse and are willing to do what you need to do to succeed in nursing...

    kmp5 replied to TheNoviceNurse16's topic in Georgia Nursing

    NAA MOMO, I have a few classmates in my class who live in the Marietta area and I think the drive is between 1-1.5 hours to get to the Gainesville campus. How far is it from where you live to the...

    kmp5 replied to TheNoviceNurse16's topic in Georgia Nursing

    You don't have to meet at school before clinical. Some people carpool but it's up to you where you meet if you want to carpool. I bought the pants from Meridys and I think that most people in my...

    kmp5 replied to TheNoviceNurse16's topic in Georgia Nursing

    We had to be at clinicals in Gainesville at Northeast Georgia last semester by 6:25am. Next year, we're going to have to do peds at one of the CHOA sites, so it could be in Atlanta on 285 or it could...

    The bookstore online will have ISBNs when they post the book lists for the fall. I was told that the Fundamentals of Nursing book will be a different version than the one we used, probably the...

    kmp5 replied to TheNoviceNurse16's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I lived in NY at one point in my life, so I not only had to pay extra for the NY background check, I had to pay TWICE because I got married in NY, so they had to do a check on my maiden name AND my...

    kmp5 replied to TheNoviceNurse16's topic in Georgia Nursing

    The uniforms are actually stain resistant, which surprised me. We were at the Sim Lab at the hospital practicing starting IVs and I got some of the fake blood on my shirt. I went to the bathroom to...

    kmp5 replied to TheNoviceNurse16's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I was waitlisted last year and got a letter offering me admittance at the end of May. I was in the top top of the waiting list. My friend was in the middle top of the list, got her letter towards...

    kmp5 replied to TheNoviceNurse16's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I was 49 when I got off the waitlist last year (at the end of May) and I honestly don't think that my age had anything to do with it. I was in the top of the top part of the waitlist. My friend was...

  20. Anyone applying to NGCSU Fall 2012?

    kmp5 replied to TheNoviceNurse16's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Nope, no clue. My transcript said Lanier campus as that's the campus I indicated I wanted when I applied and I got accepted to Gainesville. A week or maybe 2 after you get accepted and you accept,...

    kmp5 replied to TheNoviceNurse16's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I just tried to PM you but they won't let me send it since I'm a new poster to this site and don't have 15 quality posts yet. If you'd like to PM me your email address, I'd be happy to email you...

  22. Anyone applying to NGCSU Fall 2012?

    kmp5 replied to TheNoviceNurse16's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I'm at the Gainesville campus. It seems like they put a lot of the younger students who live in Dahlonega and on campus at the main campus and Gainesville and Lanier seem to be older students,...

    Leadership isn't required and I don't do it. The third day doesn't happen that often but they remind us that we have to set aside 3 days a week for school. I'm trying to think and last semester we...

  24. Anyone applying to NGCSU Fall 2012?

    kmp5 replied to TheNoviceNurse16's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Usually on clinical days we'd be done by 2pm. School days see my earlier post. But, they do have the option to plan things on your non-lab and non-clinical days but I've never stayed later than

  25. Anyone applying to NGCSU Fall 2012?

    kmp5 replied to TheNoviceNurse16's topic in Georgia Nursing

    The nursing class for first year students (for us, at least) first semester (Fundamentals of Nursing) was from 9-11, Leadership was from 11-12 (I'm not taking that class). Lab is for 4 hours, either...
