  1. what if I miss a class or clinical?

    Missing lecture is no big deal, that's your own prerogative. You can miss a day in clinical if you're sick or there's an emergency but you must be excellent when it comes to skills, otherwise your...
  2. Nursing students and their bad behaviors >:(

    I think most of this is a MYOB kind of thing. Who cares what other people do? Does it really effect you that someone walks in an hour late? Or that people complain about the uniform? Or that someone...
  3. Parent of baby/nursing student

    Can you start earlier? When baby is a newborn to about one year, it's actually A lot easier because they sleep a lot and I had used that time to study. You get used to a little sleep (I started after...

  5. Should I give up?

    I think you're going to have a very difficult time in nursing school if youre finding human anatomy hard to pass. Nursing school is basically human anatomy and physiology on steroids. Those that got...
  6. More important to lay low or fit in?

    I'm a pretty shy person but I've made a great group of friends in my program. There's no drama and we help each other out. A plus size to being friends with most of your cohort is the networking...
  7. I understand feeling upset. I had clinicals at a hospital for two semesters at a place that was 40 minutes from my house no traffic. A couple times it took me 2 hours to get home (and then I had to...
  8. MCCD Preceptorships

    I can't find anything online about maricopa county community college preceptorships. Do you get to pick where you want to go? Any info would be
  9. MCCD Preceptorships

    At the end of block 4 you follow a RN around for I believe 3 12 hour shifts a week the last few weeks. It is different than clinical as you act a hired RN I
  10. MCCD Preceptorships

    Thank you for that information. I know my school still does it (SCC) so was wondering about the details :) Did you get your first choice for your

  12. UoPX/CEP Program

    Hi! Although I was able to find a few CEP threads, they were aimed towards ASU/NAU, so I decided to make one for the University of Phoenix! I have a newer time stamp but will be done with the prereqs...
  13. CEP May Applicants

    Congrats nothing yet for the UoPX/gwcc, but they hadn't finished placing for fall 14 so not expecting anything any time
  14. CEP May Applicants

    Thanks :) and yeah I was surprised as well. And when I talked to the UoPX advisor she automatically assumed I would apply to both and had the fall schedule ready to go
  15. CEP May Applicants

    Good luck to you as well. For me, UoPX had the least amount of pre reqs compared to nau. I know they only take 30 applicants so we'll see what happens. Another poster on here said her UoPX group...
  16. CEP May Applicants

    Hi I applied today for the gwcc/uopx cep program. Turns out they were still taking applications for fall 2014. I didn't apply for that because I'll have a newborn when the fall session starts, but I...
  17. Bio205 at Rio?

    I wanted to retake my bio 205 grade before applying to the CEP program in February. I'm already taking 14 credits this semester and its just about all I can handle, so I was thinking about taking an...
  18. Concurrent Enrollment MCCC Admissions?

    From all the boards I've read on here, it can take a few days to around 3 weeks to hear back from the schools. I think it's a different wait for ASU/NAU/UoPX. And I don't think there's a way to find...
  19. I don't know anything about the CNA market here but there is an over abundance of nurses here than there are jobs. I know a lot of nurses here are looking to move elsewhere for a better market. If she...
  20. For the ASU/UoPX its $450 per credit and NAU its $350 per credit. UoPX and NAU require 30 credits and ASU 47 I believe. So for me (UoPX) its an extra $13.5k when its all said and done. I think the ASU...
  21. They made it a big point to insist that the CEP didn't take away from the regular nursing pool - but that might be an attempt to squash complaints. I suppose its all politics and we really don't have...
  22. At the information session for the cep program they insist that the cep spots do not take away from the regular nursing spots. They simply add them on and I believe most cep students are grouped...
  23. Bio205 at Rio?

    It seems like the 16 week course is pretty demanding, so I can only imagine how the 8 week course is. I'm taking HCR 210/220/230/240 and probably spend 2-3 hours a day/4 days a week on all my classes...
  24. GCC/NAU Concurrent Program

    No its the gpa towards the prereqs. Though I actually misspoke, I have current gpa of 3.2. I have seen people get into the CEP program with less, although at the cep information meeting, they said...
  25. GCC/NAU Concurrent Program

    Hi freckles! If I applied to the CEP program right now I would have a 3.17. I plan on taking one, maybe two courses that would knock my gpa up to 3.5/3.6 ish if I do not get in. I saw some people...
