    goingformydream replied to DAMomma's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    goingformydream replied to abrainerd's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    goingformydream replied to LanaBanana's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Hi Lana... I am not sure what the transcript says. I had them directly send it to my college. They are very friendly over at Rio, so I would imagine that you could call and ask them. Were you able...

    goingformydream replied to KungFuFtr's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    goingformydream replied to marinemommy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    goingformydream replied to LanaBanana's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Hey there! I took Micro at Rio and LOVED IT. It was then that I realized that Simmons really did not provide us with a quality (IMO) course. Please note: I was originally going to take Micro with...

    goingformydream replied to marinemommy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
