  1. How hard is the CEP?

    AZBlueBell replied to jen91's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Ditto. The overall content is not difficult, but it adds a lot of time. Any BSN program is going to be focused a lot more on writing assignments and papers which obviously is more time-consuming. It's...

  2. Maricopa Waiting List / Placement / Timestamps 2010+

    AZBlueBell replied to Maciso's topic in Arizona Nursing

    No, they only notify people who are

  3. Maricopa date/time stamp 2016

    AZBlueBell replied to olgizer's topic in Arizona Nursing

    The timestamp is what they use to place students in the associate program. They use that along with the school preferences you've picked. For example, if there is an opening at SCC, the program looks...

  4. January CEP applicants?

    AZBlueBell replied to rac1's topic in Arizona Nursing

    It was my experience that EMCC gave their acceptance emails later than other schools. I don't remember the exact time frame but I want to say last round (when I was accepted) other people heard on a...

  5. How far would you drive?

    AZBlueBell replied to alliesweetie14's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Depends on your situation. I, personally, cannot make a long commute work with my family schedule for the nursing blocks. Classes start as early as 7, I can't drop my son off at extended day before...

  6. Mesa CC Hesi

    AZBlueBell replied to KittenEars's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Yep, same here for my Estrella cohort. We have 28 students and only 2 were taken from the waitlist, the rest were CEP placed. So actually, CEP students get placed sooner than waitlist students....

  7. Maricopa Spring 2016 Block 1 students

    AZBlueBell replied to Mrs.Bookworm's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Never mind, I must've missed it but we have a quiz next week

  8. Maricopa Spring 2016 Block 1 students

    AZBlueBell replied to Mrs.Bookworm's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Got our syllabus today, we don't have a quiz for the first couple weeks (unless there's one that's not on the syllabus). I had a great first day though! Our professor seems so down to earth and...

  9. Maricopa Spring 2016 Block 1 students

    AZBlueBell replied to Mrs.Bookworm's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Those of us at EMCC haven't gotten any reading assignments yet :/ I've been reading things based off of GCC just to get ahead in any way possible. Our class was put online Saturday but has no syllabus...

  10. UIU CEP

    AZBlueBell replied to AZLady44's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I assume you're talking only about the GPA requirement then, although you did mention courses before. I have a 3.97 GPA so the GPA requirements of any university never mattered to me. I agree it's...

  11. UIU CEP

    AZBlueBell replied to AZLady44's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Curious where you see their "higher expectations and requirements"? Looks to me like UIU actually requires one more course than they do. Different courses, but an extra one nonetheless. I've never...

  12. Any iPad users?

    AZBlueBell replied to amber0627's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Can you use onenote on your iPad? I know that allows notes, drawings, and highlighting to be done directly on the power

  13. TB Test Question

    AZBlueBell replied to HelloWish's topic in General Nursing

    Mine was done in the same arm, no

  14. Maricopa Spring 2016 Block 1 students

    AZBlueBell replied to Mrs.Bookworm's topic in Arizona Nursing

    We had to upload to certified background as well but had a separate code for buying it which was $25. Just like we paid for the background check, we then had another code and paid for Having all our...

  15. Student loans through school

    AZBlueBell replied to candmo57's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm a stay at home mom, so we have been living on (and will continue to live on) my husbands salary while in school. I'm taking out loans to cover my tuition, books, and a little for childcare. We are...

  16. maricopa block 1 books

    AZBlueBell replied to lopezvivi's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Yes, I did make another post that I could only speak for EMCC after someone else said they had a "student nurse"

  17. Student, mom, wife... In that order

    AZBlueBell replied to Andreany9's topic in General Students

    I have the same fears as you. I have two young kids, a husband, and now nursing school next month. I just look at it as 4 semesters. Semesters go by pretty quickly for me. Whenever I feel overwhelmed...

  18. maricopa block 1 books

    AZBlueBell replied to lopezvivi's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Well that's interesting. I guess I can only speak for EMCC then. They told us there are no separate "student nurse" IDs and we are to use our regular school

  19. Structured Nursing Review

    AZBlueBell posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'd love to hear from people who took this class. Was it helpful? At EMCC, they registered us for it automatically but said it is optional and we can ask to be removed from it. The problem is, once we...

  20. maricopa block 1 books

    AZBlueBell replied to lopezvivi's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I thought so too, but they told us this at our orientation

  21. maricopa block 1 books

    AZBlueBell replied to lopezvivi's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Your badge is just your student ID. So if you don't have that you can get that from registration and then you need to buy a badge

  22. How to Nab those Nursing Scholarships $$

    AZBlueBell replied to achurley's topic in General Students

    Yes, when I state 1% that's not scientific haha but it sure feels that way to me! So I can't name specific websites that I remember, but I've found them through my college website under financial...

  23. How to Nab those Nursing Scholarships $$

    AZBlueBell replied to achurley's topic in General Students

    I have searched and searched for scholarships to help with my schooling. 99% of them are so tailored and specific with criteria that I don't qualify for. The ones I do "qualify" for are typically luck...

  24. Anxious to find spring 2016 placement

    AZBlueBell replied to jer11ren's topic in Arizona Nursing

    EMCC= Estrella

  25. Anxious to find spring 2016 placement

    AZBlueBell replied to jer11ren's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Each school is different and each semester is different. I can speak for my block 1 EMCC schedule next semester. We have two short days of lecture throughout the whole semester. We have two full days...
