  8. Azusa Pacific 2+2 Summer 2020

    DiscGolfNurse replied to Dln14's topic in School, College Programs

  9. Azusa Pacific University 2+2 BSN program Spring 2020

    DiscGolfNurse replied to nursedee87's topic in School, College Programs

  10. Azusa Pacific 2+2 Summer 2020

    DiscGolfNurse replied to Dln14's topic in School, College Programs

    Depending on how much things have changed I believe the best option is to buy the "package" offered by APU. You could look for each individual book and some people from prior cohorts may be willing to...

    DiscGolfNurse replied to Dln14's topic in School, College Programs

  23. Nursing School Burnout/Rant....Help

    DiscGolfNurse replied to nursingstudentwannabe's topic in General Students
