Hi everyone, So I got in! I was waitlisted last semester and actually started at Montgomery College this fall. I just got my call a few minutes ago. Now I have to decide what to do...I'm grateful I got in but it's such a hard decision now!
Does anyone know anything about this? At MC's registration this week, Prof. Matthews said a dual enrollment program will be available this fall, but I can't find any more info about it except for a news story about a pilot project that started awhile...
I'm sorry to all of those who haven't heard yet. The hardest part is the waiting. I got in. I just faxed my form in to accept. Has anyone else decided if they will definitely be enrolling?
I'm not a nurse yet - I'm applying to nursing school this year. But I'm curious as to how you are scheduled if you work in a hospital. Do you work the same 3 days/week? Or can you choose which days you want to work before the schedule is set? And how...
I have a BA in bio-psych and would prefer to do the ADN program mostly because it's so much cheaper. Does anyone know if hospitals in DC/MD still hire ADNs though? I have no problem with agreeing to get my BSN within a few years.
Hi drea588. I applied to MC for the fall. Could you let me know what the job prospects are like for you and your classmates? I would love to go to MC, but I'm worried about not being able to land a job after graduating. Thanks!
I called the admissions office today. They told me that wait-listed applicants would not get a letter yet. First the office goes through the letters from those who were accepted to see who accepted their spot. Then in 2 weeks, they would get to the w...
I will likely be applying to Towson for the spring. Does anyone know if the Second Degree program is shorter than the traditional BSN program? Their website is confusing to me.
I was looking at the schedule and I also have a friend in the program. Looks like you can schedule all of your classes/clinicals into 3 days the first semester, and maybe 2 days second semester. So you can definitely get a weekend in there!
I'm applying to a BSN program and an associates program. If I'm fortunate to get into both programs, I will have a hard time choosing. I know this issue has been discussed a lot here, but I'm wondering if anyone has done the ADN with the plan to do a...
Yes, this is what I'm worried about. I live in a big city on the east coast and BSNs are definitely preferred. I worry about not being able to get a job with an ADN, and then not being able to get into the BSN-RN program either.
Thanks for the info b33ni! Looks like pathopharm is now 3 credits, so that might be more manageable. But all those days of clinical? I didn't realize it would be that much. Regardless of how much work it will be, I really hope to make it off wait lis...
Prospect - Thanks for the info! That would be great to get a job right after graduation. MC is so much cheaper than UMSON and the schedule works better for me. I have young kids so that is important to me right now.
Hi Husky, I was wait listed at UMSON so I'm over here now, hoping to get into MC. I've heard MC is very highly regarded in the area, but I'm just worried about finding a job after graduation with an associates degree. Anyone else feel this way?
