VEEB LPN Program (info request)

[PinkDove]

Hi All,

I'll be starting at VEEB in the Fall and was wondering if there are any current or past VEEB students that can give some info on this program.

What are the Teachers like?

What are the required books?

Is the program as intense as they say?

Do they have articulation agreements with other nursing (RN) programs? If so, with who?

Are there any disadvantages in taking the LPN course outside of a Community College setting?

Do they provide job Placement at the end???

Any information that ANYONE can provide will be GREATLY appreciated! I really want to have a full understanding of what I'm in for. I have 2 year old Twins and I am a little worried about whether or not I'll be able to juggle school/studying and Family!

The packets are a lot of reading! There's 5 of them and 1 of them is just reading on the test were supposed to have the 1st day of school. And I had a question for anyone who also applied for the loans, when are we supposed to hear if we got approved? Bc if any money is owed don't we have to pay before the 1st??

They will let you know exactly how much you owe once they get the info back from financial aid. You will most likely have until the end of September to pay if you have a balance. The reading is a lot but they go over everything in class. Don't stress yourself.... not this early in the game anyway.... lol.

We took our last final today..... I can't believe 11 months went by SO fast. It was hard work and there were a lot of sleepless nights spent studying but it's all worth it. It seemed like yesterday a few of us were in this very thread nervous about our first day at VEEB and now were are graduating!! Congrats to my fellow classmates of 2010. Class of 2011..... study hard..... what you put into VEEB you will get back!

Hi Glady17,

I started and Im almost done but I have a question for any one who has ordered their books tell me if they received Journey Across the Lifespan. I ordered from Rittenhouse and their saying its not ready until october. This seems strange because that book was on most modules and I cant find all the info from Fundamentals in Nursing Care...Anyone that has ordered please help!

Hi Bishor....thanks for answering. Yes, I have the same problem. Journey for Lifespan is on back order and wont be available until November. I'm am also having a hard time answering some of the questions because I don't have that book.....so I don't know what to do either. I was thinking about calling the school to tell them whats going on....but I dont know what to do....but dont worry your not alone. If there is anyone out there that is having the same problem as us please let us know......and if possible do you have a solution? Thanks!!!!

When you go to school you will be told what you qualify for, and if any how much you have to pay. In your letter you will be told when the 1st semester tuition is due.

Glady and Bishor ORDER it from barnes and noble or amazon!!! They have it now on-line and in stores just call rittenhouse cancel it from them and buy it from the store. Rittenhouse shouldn't have charged u for it bc it didn't ship out. But they told me the samething and I bought it a couple days ago from barnes and noble.
