I seem to be having some issues deciding on the path I want to take in order to eventually get to where I want to be. I have an Associates degree in Allied Health Science and I know that I want to...

I'm 100% certain that I want to do labor and delivery. That's what my passion is for. My administrator at my job is a former nurse and she advised me the same way. She recommended me working in the...

I have an Associates in Allied Health already, which gives me the prerequisites I need in order to transfer into a BSN program. I've only applied to one though, and I won't know the decision until...

That's true slot of people have said that LPN is a waste of time and that going directly into A BSN program is a better idea. Although I eventually do want the BSN I feel as though gaining a start...
So I applied to SFMCON for the fall of 2016 as my option for a BSN program. I was told that I was put into the pool of applicants for that term and I would hear back from them by November. I would...

Awesome advice. I'm usually pretty thorough in my research since I want to choose wisely about the decisions I make. I do know that financial aid will eventually run out so I also want to think of...

Ultimately I do want to be an RN but usually those programs are full-time daytime programs and I work full-time in the daytime right now. If I could find and evening program I definitely would...
FutureNurseKali replied to FutureNurseKali's topic in LPN, LVN Students
That is also another reason I was hesitant. 20 grand is an extreme amount of money for an LPN program, which is why I'm still researching other options. Thank you for your advice on the clinical part...

That's what initially made me shy against the LPN program. I was told by the school that I was going to attend that we only do clinicals in LTC and that our Peds and OB skills would basically be...

I also was thinking about attending an evening LPN program since I work full-time days (8-5) as a lab technician. I'm sure it will be a challenge, but I'm also sure it's possible. I also was wondering...
I am not as fond of math as I would like to be either, but that does not mean that nursing is not for you. I disliked my Stats class as well, but if u study and try hard enough you will get it done. I...
I am applying to SFMC for the fall 2016 start. I would like to know about how the experience and application process is. I'm super excited to finally be getting closer to my dream of becoming a labor...
I have been lucky enough to get accepted into an LPN program, but I'm having second thoughts about whether I should go ahead with that program or just go for a BSN program since I ultimately want to...
I have 2 classes to go before I finish my Associates degree in Allied Health Science and I really want to apply to nursing school. I have had a passion for labor and delivery nursing since I could...
I have actually completed A&P courses online and I've had no issues with them transferring to other institutions. The main thing to remember with online classes is that you have to have excellent...
