Hi Everyone! I just wanted to confer with other individuals who applied for the upcoming Summer 2014 online mobility class at Snead. I would also love to hear from current and former students of their program ( workload, clinicals, easiness/hardness...

speaking as someone whos attended both wallace and jeff state- go with wallace. jeff states expects you to hit the ground running vs. wallace who breaks things down. they even have a student success program geared towards helping students pass from o...

Speaking personally, I finished the LPN program there last year on sumiton. I loved it. I learned a lot. Fundamentals will definitely be your high fail out rate. And OB is a killer too. We actually people fail it than 105. And we took both together l...

lol you better READ! seriously though, just realize at the end of the day your first priority is patient care! if it doesnt have any thing to do with patient care, simply turn the other way. going through a similar situation myself.

I didn't get in:-(

I hope so! But I do urge you to take calhoun! Their board rates are higher! That's why I'm thinking Wallace may be where the good Lord is leading me to!

I'm sure your fine ranger *rollseyes* lol. I had a 72.7% on teas and two B's and a C. I'm the one that's scared. I have wallace to fall back in which had a hybrid option. You just have to go to campus for the test (just like snead) and they offer ni...

The secretary said letters will be out by the end of this week! I don't think I got in. It's 100 qualified applicants and while my teas score is good my sciences are just B averages at best

I second that. I work at the va now as a lpn on a med surg floor and its so many opportunities to learn. To hone skills. A few seconds ago from me typing this message i just put a iv in one of my patients.

everyone isnt a "a" student or a "b" student for that matter. Often times though they make the best nurses. Number 1) they don't assume they know everything and 2)theyre always open to learning and peer criticizing meant to make them a better nurse....

Exactly! Like you wernt once that curious student who was just learning everything for the first time!

why are people sometimes such jerks on this site. it was a simple question. the op didnt mean any harm. some people just are mean for no reason. if it annoys you that much.... DON'T RESPOND!

Just a heads up- they meet Tuesday. Got this from the director myself *fingerscrossed*

more than likely @seelek the new class schedule is up, so you can look on there

@jdmelton88 for which school? snead or wallace? i dont know if ive got accepted to snead yet.

Just a update letters are expected to go out sometime next week!

Well as we know pass rates are composed if two things: how well the teachers teach and how well students retain content. If it were me in this case I would go calhoun. It's cheaper. And a RN-BSN program could be a possible out of pocket expense of on...

I will warn you before turning down your seat more than likely the entrance requirements will change for all two year school from the TEAS test to the ACT. Bevill and wallace are piloting that now. This is Wallace's second year implementing the ACT a...

Kissesnhugs, while I don't regret my choice one bit as far as bridging from lpn to rn because of the vast experience I've gained from being a floor lpn nurse in a teaching hospital, if I had the choice and the funds at that time I definitely would ha...

Congrats! CyndleT. Speaking as a LPN that just finished bevill so our course work is the same from first to second semester get ready! 1st semester is a whole new way of thinking! A whole new world! And that summer second semester taking PEDS/OB and ...

Thank you! Good luck to you as well! I would have definitely accepted the spot at Calhoun if I got in to the online mobility! Unfortunately that drive everyday to Decatur is impossible especially driving a mustang! I can take the wallace drive becau...

I got into wallace program. It's a hybrid option where class time isn't required you just go for test. Your Clinicals are not as liquid as Calhoun or snead where your able to choose when and where u go to Clinicals. Your still in a traditional clinic...

@ranger1 finally a reply! I actually called the director today to see about the progress of the letters. She stated to expect something around the 14-16. I don't understand why calculating points should take a full 6 weeks! You are right- Calhoun le...

it was 148. my coworker also applied and only had 147 points. she was a point shy. she said she only applied for the online mobility and so im guessing why thats why she got the cutoff information. whats crazy is that thats the only thing i applied f...

which one will you choose? im excited to know!?!
