  1. Gateway CC LPN Cohort Fall 2016

    It's amazing to look back at this now and think that in a few short months I'll have been an RN of 2 years already. From first posting this, I was a pre-nursing student on the waitlist to become an...
  2. Hey All, I thought I'd create a thread for future LPN applicants awaiting admission for, hopefully, the Fall 2016 cohort. I was hoping for a lucky spring 2016 spot, but oh well..., so here's to hoping...
  3. Gateways Community College 2018 waitlist

    When I applied in October of 2016, I was accepted in late July of 2017 for August. However, the waitlist could've lengthen since then considering their expanding the amount of seats for the PN program...
  4. Gateway CC LPN Cohort Fall 2016

    It all depends on the semester but I think they try to maintain the same schedule as much as they can from semesters prior. I had days while in the PN program and it was Tuesdays and Thursdays from...

    I do have all the power points but the packets they give I don't have them anymore haha. The PowerPoints can be overwhelming with all the information on them so there is a reason why they unlock each...

    I have the text. I can sell it to you way cheaper than what I bought it
  7. Gateway CC LPN Cohort Fall 2016

    Congrats on everyone who made it through both semesters. Yeah the first block was way easier. I was fortunate to need not study much. 2nd block was difficult for me and I wasn't taking any other...

    Or just do the chest xray. It's easier and non invasive and lasts two years instead. That's what i
  9. Gateway CC LPN Cohort Fall 2016

    What's different than what you were expecting? Block 1 is pretty straightforward and organized. Block 2 is noticeably much more difficult and there are more clinical days that you have to complete...
  10. Gateway CC LPN Cohort Fall 2016

    Yeah the IVs were intimimaging at first but once you get them over and over it becomes just another skill. The hospital setting is completely different. You don't get to know the pts. There are new...
  11. Gateway CC LPN Cohort Fall 2016

    Hope clinicals are going well! Usually it's your stethoscope, watch, badge. I carry a notebook and pens with me but since we're in the hospital setting for this block we don't have time to carry a...

    I don't know if the code will work if they have already been used
  15. Gateway CC LPN Cohort Fall 2016

    It all depends where you go. I had Jennifer at Mi Casa. Is that where you guys are going? If so you won't do too much on the first day. It'll be more or less observation and shadowing and maybe a few...

    Second semester starts today! Go in in in about 15 minutes. How is everyone who started first semester
  17. Gateway CC LPN Cohort Fall 2016

    Congrats to all who were accepted for the spring! I can't believe it's been almost a year since I made this thread. I'm thrilled and appreciative of all those who've stopped in to comment about their...

    Oh yeah, clinicals for me are in Sunday. I started mine on 10/2 and they last until

    Oh gotcha, the drug screen is random so you don't know when it'll happen, and the background check must be purchased before
  20. LPN Gateway Community College

    What do you mean by bc and ucds? Yeah it's sorry if fast paced but completely reasonable. I study a few times a week for a total of several hours and I'm good. We're also in clinicals now and those...
  21. LPN Gateway Community College

    They usually send out an email asking if you're still interested before they make a decision on placing you. I got that email asking if I was interested back in April of this year and then got my...
  22. Gateway CC LPN Cohort Fall 2016

    Yeah, I just got them today. I went with the print and the ebook since I work best with the physical copy in front of me. My roommate seems to think that I can just torrent the ebook somewhere...
  23. Gateway CC LPN Cohort Fall 2016

    We just had orientation yesterday for both day and night cohorts. It was a lengthy 3 hours of basically going over the nursing handbook and mentioning other "hidden" fees needed before we could all...

    I'm not sure. Did you contact nursing advisement or the director of
  25. Gateway CC LPN Cohort Fall 2016

    It's for this fall, starting in August. Since I was waitlisted, I didn't get a choice of either day or evening but I did get the day cohort which is what I was hoping since I work part time in the...
