I am starting a community college in the fall, (actually tomorrow) and I have a previous bachelor's, which means, I have WAY more student loan debt than you ( way more than 15,000) and I was able to get sub and unsub fed. loan. are they denying you ...

I bought all my books from amazon or ebay. I went to amazon first and took a "LOOK INSIDE" on some of them. I also asked the teachers in orientation which books can we get that are a previous edition. My books should have come to about $900 if I got ...

how old can our vaccinations be?? I didn't think of that. I start classes on August 13th and have my physical on the 1st. I just thought I would need to get them again. (I'm 39 and just read your post).

I am a social worker (have been for 15 years), and was in the same boat as you. I am starting my first semeater of nursing school this fall, whoohoo! First of all, is there any community college (maybe not the closest to you) that offer any of the ...

go for it!! I am 39 and will start nursing school in the fall. This is a career change for me. I thought I would be out of place in the sea of younger more energetic students, but I am in an evening weekend prgram and half the class is my age. I lo...

take a loan. i am 39 and working on rn as a second degree. i am taking out additional loans, so what. If you know how much you can manage to borrow and have say 100-200 taken out of your check for student loans at the very beginning after you grad...

I though for sure THIS one would work!!

I applied to a nursing program last year and did not get in. I did not have the option of changing my major, becuase nursing is a career change for me. I just saw Kvedaa's post and that was what I had as my plan B. I was going to get my CNA and ap...

got my letter!!

thanks.

evening/weekend.

ohh, hope mine is there. I am at work, have to wait until 5pm : (

I just looked on my account and it says decision made and seat fee is there. Does anyone know if this means letters have ALREADY been sent out? I too am taking finals, and sooo nervous. This is killing me even more now!!!

I am in Baltimore. I am 39, and have been a social worker for 15 years. About 3 year ago, I decided to return to school in be a nurse. I was afraid, but I worked full time, and went to school at night and on weekends (in 1 semester taking anatomy 1...

I don't know about books, but I took A and P I and II and micro in 1 year. The text books for anatomy, I sarted looking through all the diagrams as soon as I got the book. Our class recommened netterman's anatomy flashcards. I would HIGHLY recomme...

Age does give you a leg up. when some are talking about parties and peers, you are thinking deadlines and tests. I am 38 and have decided to change careers!!! I am in pre-req's and will apply to my nursing program in the fall. To me, it feels like...

I took micro and a & p 1 while working full time. It's a lot but it is doable. I got a "b" in both classes. If u are not working right now, it should not be a problem!!!! Good luck.

I am in sort of a similar boat. I got my master's degree in social work in 1998, and have worked in the field all this time. I am now in schhol for my ADN. I still have loans from my other 2 degrees. I went over the nursing vs. sw salaires and ho...

I have not read the other replies or posts, but all I can say is hang in there. I was in a similar boat. Although I was not in the beginning of my first week of nursing, I was in my prerequisites in science and working full time when my brother was ...

hey Jen- I am here now on the feed!! my application is still not on the ccbc site. They say they are working on it (fixing the site issue). They got all transcripts, but of course, I can't see those either. (I had to call them and they looked every...
