Anyone here attended or know anyone who attended Southern Union Community College?
Which one Auburn, i've heard that they get very little clinical time, I wonder if this is true. Or LaGrange College very good school, sort of snobby/clicky, but I have heard good things.
Been at EAMC for 13 yr and have worked w/ many of both and they both put out good nurses. Whether or not a nurse is good right out of school really depends more on the personality of the nurse than what school s/he went to. Dedication and personal integrity can't be taught (they can be modeled but not taught).
I am currently in the nursing program at SUSCC, what questions do you have? I took all of my "non-nursing" classes before getting accepted into the program. Now I am in my first semester of nursing classes, still trying to find my "study methods" for nursing classes. This semester is Nur 102-fundamentals, Nur 103-Assessment, and Nur 104-Pharm.
I just recieved my acceptance letter for the Spring 2012 class. Like you I have already completed my pre-reqs, so how many days do you attend classes/ clinicals & for how many hours? Im asking because I live in Georgia, and Im debating if I should re-locate or just make the hour & a half drive. How are the nursing classes?

Update on the clinical hours for the guy asking about Clinicals at AU.
For the summer session they started the first full week of class, we have class M/T from 8am till 4:30pm with a one hour break for lunch. Wed/Thur we have either clinicals from 8-5 (community stufff-rehab at warm springs, primary care, hospice, nursing home once, home health) or we have ICU at Jackson in Montgomery (12 hour shifts plus one 8 hr for a total of 80 hrs) Friday we have Psych clinicals either at EAMC or Bradley Center (6:45am-3pm)
