Can't you check online for your schedule? I know at MCC it shows up online. I tried checking GCC last week, but mine isn't there yet either. Ho hum, I guess it will show up by Jan 13th, my first...

I'm here. I've been researching books. I just wish I could buy some right now...or maybe I don't. Then I'd have to start reading them I found on Barnes and Noble that there's free shipping, 10%...

We have registration either the 5 or the 6th of Jan, and the class is the 5-6 of Jan, so I figured I'd already be there one of those days, I might as well take the class and maybe meet some of my...

I forgot to add... Mary, I'm taking the math class at GCC, it's on the same day as my registration appointment will be so I figured that since I was there I might as well take it. Thanks anyway.

Hi everyone, you guys were busy yesterday!! I haven't really started buying things for NS yet, although I"d love to. I did have Nursemate shoes in CNA class and they did the same thing to me that...

Sounds good to me. Hopefully I'll be able to stay for a while. Dh is on-call and hopefully won't get called out. I plan on being there though and may bring a friend. A girl in my patho class got...

Saturday night would work great for me I'm pretty sure. My dd a bday party at 2, but it should be over by 4 and maybe dh could pick her up from it. I only turned in my preferences, that's what I mean...

Got all registered for classes and it wasn't too painful. I ended up choosing Thunderbird HOspital, even though it's farther it's where one of the teacher's that was recommended to me teaches (thanks...

I'm on my way out the door to turn in my choices too. I plan on checking out the bookstore and getting info on FA. I'd love to meet up with you guys sometime, weekends are better for me though, no...
Calzonan RN replied to IrishItalianRN's topic in Arizona Nursing
That would be great, but I have to set up an account first. Hopefully I can get that done tomorrow. Wow!!! $600 for not even all of the books!! I don't qualify for FA, and like I said before my GI...

Thrashej, I remember when you were waiting for your packet, lol, seems like yesterday. You were just as nervous and excited as we are to get it, and then you got it like two days later than you...

Yes, Gilbert is a long drive to Glendale. I chose GCC as my first choice actually. I found out that the p/t program is only two days a week, and those days don't change. I can't afford to be in a...
I'm so sorry, I know how discouraging that can be. It sounds like you're getting some good advice to increase your chances for next time. Have you checked into Grand Canyon? I've heard they don't...
Calzonan RN replied to IrishItalianRN's topic in Arizona Nursing
I think you're right. I guess since it's not their life they're waiting to rearrange it's not a big deal. I've heard that most of the books we'll buy are in blk 1 and we'll use a lot of the same ones...

Mattsmom is starting in the spring too and I think she figured out that all in all, if you bought used books when you could, it would be over $400. I know, pretty scary there, especially with Xmas...

We must be talking to the same lady :rotfl: 'cause that's how I always feel, like a chastised child. I'm sure she is totally annoyed by all of us calling, but still...this is our life we're trying to...

I think Angie123 is a full-timer, plus Glendalestudent is in her last block as a full-timer at GCC. That's all I can think of right now. It's okay Thrashej, we probably won't really know until school...
