I have read a few of the posts regarding this very topic. However, I wanted to put my reasons for struggling with my decision and see what others may do in my situation. Originally, my very first thought was to go to sonography school. For a number ...

Ok I'm trying to choose between excelsior and Hutchinson. Does anyone know anything about the clinicals portion of the hutchinson program? I read here that I would be able to do my clinicals locally and I really need some insight on this. How easy wo...

Ok so after tons of research I have come to two ways to obtain my RN online after obtaining my emt-p license. There is excelsior with the 3 day cpne.Then there's Hutchinson Community College with 20 something days of clinicals that can be done either...

Hey! Read this thread https://allnurses.com/excelsior-college-online/excelsior-college-paramedic-783321.html Good info on it. I have also been looking into excelsior. If I'm not mistaken it is actually in NY. But you still need to check your states ...

I know this topic has been brought up a gazillion times and I do apologize lol. Does anyone know if tx bon still accepts ec grads? I have googled this every which way possible and I can't find a recent thread confirming whether or not they do. The d...

Nevermind... talked to them today and they said the only portion of the clinicals i could do locally are the last few. I would had to make 6 to 7 trips to kansas, spending a week there each time =/ not at all doable. So excelsior it is!

Wow... thanks so much for that! I didnt know anyone else had replied. Thanks to everyone else too. I am so excited to get things started.

thanks texanmom =)

Thank you!

Ok... I wasn't sure were to put this ... but always had good results from posting here. I have decided, that even though my first choice was sonography (no jobs in my area) I want to go into nursing. After checking into nursing programs in my area ...

Thanks ... I'm looking into all the small details too. Like a said medic is just a stepping stone. Nursing is what I'm after.

With excelsior, its the same bridge program an lvn would take. I have found national averages but is that with over time? I'm just worried I may not be able to survive on emt income. If the average is right on with the beaumont texas area, then ill b...

Wow... I apologize for no breaks in my post. Using my phone and actually did write it in paragraphs =/

Yes ... following my heart is what I need. I am required to shadow a sonographer for 24 prior to admission so I plan to do this before even starting pre-reqs.

Thanks to all of you for your encouragement! Makes me feel a ton better... love this site btw, so much info here =)

Hello lorarami.... I'm not looking for easy. In fact I like a good challenge. Heck my cleaning business Ihave now isn't stress free... its just ruining my spine. And that's even with a lot of core strengthening exercise. Plus no benefits ... I just n...

Saysfaa... I'm not sure.... and I'm sure there's more openings for both. I just used a free ad site for example. I am in the Beaumont are of Texas.

Thanks! I believe I should go with what I want as well... its just very scary to think I may not find work. I cannot move my son again. In a local online job listing, right now there are 8 nursing positions and 1 sono position. Granted I'm sure gett...

Hello all ... I posted about this in another topic section and didn't get a response so I thought I would try here :) I am torn between the two professions and just needed some opinions based on my reasons for struggling with both. Originally, my ver...

Hello! I am new to the board. This is my first post but I have been "lurking" for a few days soaking up as much info as possible :) I am a single mother with a 10 year old boy. I have had my own residential cleaning business for 7 years. I do like my...

That's what I've been told.... to pair science classes with a course that isn't very demanding. I will have no choice but to work. I'm single, own my home, car note, bills etc. So not working isn't an option for me. I will have no life outside of wor...

Thanks for all the input! Ansumana ... admission is mostly dependent upon GPA so I know that however many classes I choose to take I will definitely not take any of them lightly. neldel ... our local college, Lamar University no longer offers the as...
