This might be a stupid question, but here goes: Let's say you did have to sign a contract for 2 years. Then you applied to NA school after working 6 months (grad in May 05, apply in December 05)... lo and behold you are accepted for the Jan 06 class... but you still have 1 yr on your CVICU nurse contract. COULD you pass on your seat in NA school for this term and take the seat for next term allowing you to fulfill your 2 year contract AND still know you are accepted to NA school for next term (Jan 07) Has anyone ever heard of that - being accepted but then having to postpone going to school (playing devils advocate - what if you found out your were pregnant and wanted to have the baby then start school)... would you have to reapply? What if you were in the middle of your program - then how does it work? cjs (oh yeah, congrats on your new job )
