Hey Seekans any luck on finding housing? I just applied for the program and I am praying to get into the August term. It's such a quick notice if I get in or not so I am starting to look for housing now just in case.I think one of my biggest problems will be finding a furnished room because I wont have any furniture.

Pinkbob4- Thank you so much for your in depth response. You actually painted a pretty good and realistic picture. I totally understand that every program has their pro's and con's and I am glad you highlighted both. Everything is moving so fast but if I'm lucky I am hoping to start in August. As of right now nursing school sounds like a breeze compared to figuring out how to pay for it, finding housing and moving across the country to a state that has below 20 degree weather. I get could in 75 degree weather!! This is a random question and I am really assuming you wont have much clue but I got to ask. You said the second half of the 1st semester you start going to the testing/skills lab. Does that mean you wont have mandatory dates where you will have to be there an the actual sight. And if you do, will it be weekends? The only reason I ask is that I have to be out of town that 8th weekend and I'm freaking out it might interfere with an important/mandatory date. I have talked to the counselor about this but he didn't know anything about dates. He said he was going to ask around but hasn't gotten back to me.

Hey Jriner! How is the program going? I am hoping to start in AUG and I feel like I'm constantly bugging the advisor with so many questions. They wouldn't take my anatomy class so I too am taking 3 pre-req's starting in April ( ANT, CHEM and THL). Could you give me some insight on how the first semester is going? I'm very interested in the first clinical portion. For this section do you have to go to the hospital on the weekends? I have a wedding I'm suppose to be in during the 10th week of the program and I am kinda freaking out it might not work. Oh and any other info/advice would be amazing!!

Hey Wanttoknow and yesterdayschild! Wanttoknow, did you start the program? I have so many questions and don't really know where to start but I was hoping both of you guys could answer some of them. I am trying to start in Aug but I am extremely nervous. I'm about to start taking the theology pre-rec course and was wondering how the lectures are formatted.Obviously I learn soo enought but do the teachers actually talk and explain the lecture slides or is it pretty much read the powerpoints and book by yourself and do the work? Which semester do you think is the hardest? Any study tips (besides study groups.... I know I'll need one)? How often do people go to the online "campus" location? And how many people would you say actually complete this program? Oh, and do you have any suggestions on where to live around there. I have never been to Indianapolis so I don't know the good parts verses the bad parts or the safest but cheapest locations in the area. Thanks for any and all help!!
