Just to update everyone. I completed the lpn-RN program and cannot sit for NCLEX. The school only has lpn and BSN accreditation status. Siena merged forces with Carleen and got caught doing illegal things, as well as there was an fbi agent in the last class.. Granted, RN programs before me had low NCLEX pass rate and were semi successful in their own light.. stay away ! Their lpn programs actually have great pass rate, but you'll have to go to FL. As a former student who has wasted lots of time and money only to end up where I started 2 years ago... go somewhere else please!!

Hey all, So I've been getting emails and stuff from this forum! I'm currently enrolled in Siena college. It's 100% online until clinicals that'll take place in Florida in oct ! We have to do a live clinical for a week in Oct. Normally, you'd go to Florida for clinicals once a month thurs, fri, and sat. Due to covid, clinicals are simulated online! Prerequisites- Siena college and carleen give you placement for English comp 1,2 math, psych, developmental psychology, A&P. Although, if you want to transfer and get your BSN do those classes at a community College Price-$16,500 you pay the down payment, then you pay a monthly payment. They'd prefer you pay the $2700 a month, but they'll work with you on payment. You won't get your transcripts or ticket to test until your debt is paid in full! Program length- 6-9 months Lecture and structure- we have class every Wednesday from 10-2 or 6-10 . Assignments are due Thursday at midnight, you're given a 12 hour grace period. Right now. We're in review and " test your knowledge mode". Studying from and with sanders comprehensive, sanders q&a, and Lippincott over 200 questions are due a week You can contact them 102 Larch Ave. Suite #203 Rene: 678-481-8187 [email protected] Newport, Delaware 19804 Mercy: 302-565-7528 [email protected] Office # 302-692-7655 Nadage: 347-424-1539 [email protected] I hope this has helped !!

If it's the same price, do portage so you can get it out the way and not have to worry about logging in every week ! That's tiring for a ethics class !!

Hi !! Congratulations on your acceptance!! I've taken online classes at both Cowley county and Portage learning!! Personally, I LOVE Cowley county and I've never made a grade under a B with my Cowley classes. To me Portage is overpriced for an Ethics class. I still use my granny's address In KS to make Cowley more affordable out of pocket, but I do recommend you take it with Cowley vs portage IF you have the time to take it before starting your bridge program. If you need it done asap portage is the way to go ! You can complete 1 chapter a day and finish a class literally in as little as 16 days. Hopefully this helps ! Best of luck to you!

I got the email and responded!

I'm responding because I want more info too! My best friend and I are would like to start this program in April ! She went to the Delaware office to meet with the D.O.N ! I actually plan on going tomorrow now that I have my unofficial transcripts so I can see cost, how many classes we take a term etc !!

The math. I used the study guide ed. 4 just to refresh and it was exactly like the test. I scored a 89 in the math section. Addition, subtraction, ratios and fractions. Lots of fractions so I focused heavy on those and the ruses of fraction. Reading comp. It was simple, if you can read a paragraph and understand what it's saying anD answer questions on what you read you'll be fine. I didn't even study this section and I got a 90 in it. Grammar, verbs, noins, pro-nouns, sentence structure, again, it's all in the study guide. I took additional quizzes to help with it and also read them aloud to see if they made any sense ! 89 there. A&P, I used the study guide again as well as a few quizlet tools and I passed it as well. I could of put more effort In to but I was so worried about biology (which I failed) I neglected the rest but still did fairly well! I hope this helps. Oh and because I'm not much of a book learner , I went to pintrest and looked up hesi- and whichever subject you are having the most issue with. I found diagramsome and illustrations much more help find for myself ! Again good luck to you !!

I need Help!! Lol I'm bugging all the way out, I was conditionally accepted into a lon-rn program on the grounds that I pass my biology hesi this time.. every other subject is a 83 or above for me but biology is a 64 (roughly 3 questions off). So my question, how'd you do on that subject ? What other resources did you use ? I'm using hesi exam book, youtube, matrix, quiz let. ! I know exactly where I'm weak at . Function and use of microscope(steps), cell structure flagellum, respiration (assuming cellular), Kerbs cycle, exocytosis, competitive inhibitors!! I know there were some thingd I second guessed myself on but any help would be totally loved and appreciateD

First off congrats on the job I screamed when I got mine! ! I float and do ltc and also sub acute I love the sub acute side because I'm learning! But I have 22 patients and I wanna cry!! 5 g-tubes, 8 wounds, 10 diabetics that are on finger sticks before every meal, everybody on blood pressure meds and poly pharmacy! I'm a new grad (sept 2013) started oct2013 and I'm still somewhat overwhelmed! Some days more then others. . Make sure to make nice with your CNAs, they have your back like nobody else will. I've been told over and over "if you can do this, you can do anything". And I feel like superwoman! !

I currently work in skilled nursing sub acute care where I have 22:1 ratio and it kicks my tail! ! I've been a nurse there for 6 months. . I've been a nurse for 6 months! It's rough, but this is normal. I'm in Maryland . I needed a start and I got one! Keep your head get all you can until you can get somewhere else

I went back and re took ati, and also did questions from exam cram and Kaplan.. don't buy it, just sit in Barnes and noble and read it!! (That's what we did)
