  1. EKU ADN 2014 - Now I wait..

    BeccaC623 replied to AnnaKThom's topic in General Nursing

    It's not horrible at all! The teachers really want you to succeed and they really explain things well. I have zero complaints about this program and, like you, had heard a lot of horror stories!...

  2. EKU ADN 2014 - Now I wait..

    BeccaC623 replied to AnnaKThom's topic in General Nursing

    They're really good about getting the letters out quickly, I got mine about 2-3 weeks after the deadline, so I hope yours gets to you that quickly too. I wish you so much luck! I do advise that if...

  3. EKU ADN 2013

    BeccaC623 posted a topic in General Nursing

    Anyone else going? I'm super excited about starting the program, I'm getting everything to the office on Monday to register! :) Argh, this was supposed to be in the KY nursing PROGRAMS. Any way a...

  4. Nursing Is My Dream, However..

    BeccaC623 replied to destinihylton's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Get into a community college, rock your prerequisite courses and THEN apply for nursing programs. They'll look at your college gpa and see how hard you've

  5. HELP! Applied & got denied what to do now?

  7. EKU ADN 2013

    BeccaC623 replied to BeccaC623's topic in General Nursing

    Hi! Thank you for the advice! I live in Nicholasville, so it's about a 45 minute drive in to Richmond and I watch my friend's son on Tuesdays while she's at work (he's under 1 y/o and on a great...

  9. How to choose the right program?!

    BeccaC623 replied to combsj25's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'd look at their NCLEX pass rates personally, that's how I chose my

  10. Stethoscope...?

    BeccaC623 replied to SarahXBeth's topic in General Nursing

    I have a Littman Lightweight but don't recommend it, I can hardly hear on my 4lb Chihuahua. Grogan's will let you come in and test them, it's on South Broadway in Lexington. Personally, I'm getting...

  11. Public colleges vs. Private colleges?

    BeccaC623 replied to heather0315's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    As it's for profit, I'm not a huge fan. There are some great online CJ programs, like the one at Penn State's world campus. The credits are transferable and you get a degree from Penn State...

  13. Public colleges vs. Private colleges?

    BeccaC623 replied to heather0315's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Everest is one of those schools that some consider "pay for a degree," I wouldn't necessarily consider it a private college. Private colleges tend to be non-profit and for-profits are run by...

  14. Public colleges vs. Private colleges?

    BeccaC623 replied to heather0315's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've never heard of someone who went to a private university being looked down on for where they got their degree. Now, if it's an ITT Tech, Spencerian College, or any of those, it holds the...

    Oops! It was NUR 200. For some reason I got the keyboarding class in my

  16. changing majors..

    BeccaC623 replied to japneet18's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    As far as I know you can always change your major. Lots of people go from one major to another while deciding what to do. I'd give the registrar's office a call to ask how to do it, but it's usually...

  17. BCTC Fall 2013 Applicants

    BeccaC623 replied to NurseRose84's topic in General Nursing

    Every nursing student I talked to told me to read things I like this summer because it might be the last chance I get until I graduate! I'd do that and maybe look through the basics of dosage calc....

  18. BCTC Fall 2013 Applicants

    BeccaC623 replied to NurseRose84's topic in General Nursing

    If you need an easy elective and have your bio/english/psych/etc. done-take Keyboarding. Took it online and it was the easiest A I've ever earned :) You only have to go in to school once for the...

  19. EKU ADN 2013

    BeccaC623 replied to BeccaC623's topic in General Nursing

    As of right now, yes. I have most of the prereqs done and my advisor told me I could take Micro at any point before 4th semester so I'm trying to hold off with that until next summer. I took a micro...

    BeccaC623 replied to BeccaC623's topic in General Nursing

    That's fantastic! I'm so excited to start. Have you seen the clinical schedule yet? It's at adn.eku.edu/sites/adn.eku.edu/files/sectionsfall2013.pdf I'm trying to get into the Wednesday morning...

  21. BCTC Fall 2013 Applicants

    BeccaC623 replied to NurseRose84's topic in General Nursing

    I did and I'll be turning down my spot as soon as I get the paperwork since I'm going to EKU. I hope there's 7 others like me and you get a spot!

  22. BCTC Fall 2013 Applicants

    BeccaC623 replied to NurseRose84's topic in General Nursing

    Come to the dark side (EKU), it'd be nice to "know" someone! I got into both programs at BCTC so hopefully I'll make someone on the wait list's day. :) Also, congratulations everyone! I wish you...

  23. Pathophysiology Prereqs

    BeccaC623 replied to ondracsa's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    All of this. I took a patho class but only to attain a bit of knowledge before starting my program this August. We had a basic human physiology pre-req

  24. BCTC Fall 2013 Applicants

    BeccaC623 replied to NurseRose84's topic in General Nursing

    I thought they said they got rid of rolling admissions, at least that's what the advisor I spoke with told

  25. Getting into a Good, cheap nursing school

    BeccaC623 replied to bpharkins7's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have a 2.73 and was accepted. It all depends on the school, the number of applicants, and test scores at some schools. My ADN program looked at your entire GPA, not just prereqs as did most in the...
