Does anyone know if RN students get their FA disbursed any earlier than regular students? The official date for summer term students is 6/10 with a disbursement date of the next Friday. That is going to be a rough wait money wise, and since most of us can't work I was just hoping there was something different for us.

Kind of off topic, but I was wondering if anyone knew of any health insurance options for students? I have a policy that my job reimburses me for, at 158.00 a month, but that is obviously going to stop when I leave to start school. Anyone know of any programs, or just general info that could point me in the right direction?

We will probably need to be studying, but I am also going to take the opportunity to work out at the fitness center to get ready to carry chunky patients around. Treadmill with my book open in front of me, sounds fun!

Did anyone else notice the "perspective" student bit? Made me laugh, then get nervous.

Even as a full-grown man I am not ashamed to say I bawled like a little baby when she died. That show was all laughs until they threw a curveball and kicked you right in the pants with something sad.

I sent a request to you. Hope it isn't premature and I am actually able to snag a spot at North.

So looks like North Campus for me.

Thank you so much for the information! Does anyone know of anything to help with the math in the program? Some of us are borderline LD when it comes to numbers so any help would be fantastic!

Good Morning All! I am currently just starting RN school, so I know that I am getting ahead of myself, but I am a little older at 32 so I want my planning to be pretty firm going forward. The last thing I need is to waste time! I have looked at all the various services, and have really felt a strong pull to join the Navy Reserve once I get my BSN and then serve while I pursue my MSN/DNP at least. The info I have found for my below question is ambiguous, and there is no Medical Recruiter within easy driving range for me, so I was hoping someone on this awesome board could help. Does anyone have a list of the disqualifying conditions for medical Officer candidates? I have ADHD and mild-depression that is well controlled through medication, and has been for over a decade, and it would be really disappointing to find out that I am out of the running before I even left the finish line. Much appreciation for any help you guys can provide. Thanks, Christopher

Can't believe that mess about North Campus. As soon as someone finds something out please let us know!

As a fellow male I can feel your pain on the shoe front, the shoes I've seen are ugly as homemade sin. Shox were suggested by someone on another board, and you can build your own all white leather version, but I am waiting for orientation before I buy them at $155.00. The link is below, and feel free to let me know of anything else you might run across. (side note, I have wide feet so it is a plus that I can order them in a wider width than the normal Nikes in store.) Nike Store. Nike Shox NZ iD Men's Shoe

I am still walking on Cloud 9 from just getting in, but I would love to end up at a campus with all of us together.

I know this isn't the right attitude to have, but WHAAAAAAA! They are so UGLY!

Sounds like a great idea, has someone done it yet or should I? About the shoes, do they have to be 100% leather, or can they be mesh and leather athletic shoe? If so, then I am going with the all white Nike Free running shoes (similar to the picture, but all white instead of grey accent) especially since I already have several pairs already and know how awesome they are.

HOLY BANANA CRAP! I just picked out the stethescope I wanted, go to check the prices, and WHAM 210 bucks... WHY MUST I HAVE SUCH REFINED TASTE!? haha
