It means at the graduate level.... When you have a prior bachelor's degree and are enrolled in a post bach program (which a second bachelor's would be considered). I think it has more to do with financial aid to be honest... At least this is my understanding.

Basically, we get screwed because we have chosen to go back to school to pursue a "second career or degree." Lol.

? I thought graduate level was masters and above. If you are pursuing a second bachelor's they consider that graduate level and make you pay as such?

Graduate prices - i.e. pay the same tuition as graduate students

Aww, Gotcha .That sucks. I thought you meant after graduating southwestern, sdsu let's southwestern graduates get their bsn with southwestern prices. Wishful thinking.

The hospitals that are used for clinical, are they all spread out or are they mostly located in south San Diego? @themostcorrectanswer @Caligirl85
Well I know where ucsd and naval hospital are located but the others have multiple locations.

For day cohort, we were split into four groups. We’ve gone to sharp Chula Vista, navy med, Scripps Chula and all locations for kaiser in San Diego. If you’re in kaiser I believe you’re notified the morning of which location you’re going to.

So a group goes to one hospital for their clinicals? No rotating locations?

You typically go to multiple locations. Not one the entire program.

One per clinical course, but you will likely be assigned to a different hospital with each clinical course. So yes, for example you will be at one hospital for med surge 1, but not necessarily be at the same for peds or labor and delivery. If that makes sense.

Yes, thank you. Cool. I was hoping to rotate.

I wont be surprised if they wait another week. I knew when that girl said she got a call today they wouldn't put it out.

No matter how many signs point to I may be getting in... Until I get that official email, it means nothing. I mean something, but does not get rid of the anxiety.
