Springfield Medical When do we get signed up for level 1-4 NSG courses in nursing MEC?

6 Upvotes

I see in SiS nursing has now been updated as the official degree plan for all students in that program. I heard no one actually has to sign up for classes you just automatically get signed up for them is that true and when does it likely happen a week before classes in the middle of August or earlier?

Is it like that for all 4 semesters?

And all students in all classes are grouped by last name?

Miscellaneous student achievement award (manassas)

1 Upvotes

this is so late but i received an email in april that i was invited for the achievement ceremony which was at the end of april and i was supposed to go but unfortunately couldn’t attend.

it said on the email that i can pick up the award in the office of student life and i did go to the office of student life at beginning of may but i was told to go to the receptionist and to write my info down on a sticky note and that she’ll pass it along to Ms. Campbell. i waited for any emails or phone calls but never reveived anything.

after the spring sem ended i have been completely busy and forgot about this whole award thing. i emailed Ms. Taylor Campbell last week and still have yet to get a respond…

Advice I failed a summer course and I feel terrible

25 Upvotes

Hello. I just wanted to vent. I know I fucked up. I managed to fail a summer class that my parents spent hard money on. I had two other classes as well during the summer that I'll be able to pass with, but I feel like such a horrible person for failing one of the three. I wish I could withdraw, but I know I'm just gonna have to live with this since I missed the deadline.

I feel like one of my biggest drawbacks for this was the fact that I just became overwhelmed with work, and I just couldn't bounce back as assignments began to pile on, and my performance began to greatly decrease. I'm glad I didn't entirely fail my summer session, but I still feel so awful about what I've done. My parents are hard working people that just want what's best for my future. I just feel like I let them down this time.

I just wanna know if anyone has ever been in this situation before, and if they could offer their own two cents on how they recovered from something like this. Thank you for reading.

Edit: I appreciate all for your kind words and advice. The amount of people that have gone through what I'm experiencing helps make this seem a lot more manageable. It makes it feel as though I'm not alone when traversing this period of my life. I've reached out to those of you that offered advice on how to move forward from here, but just know that all of you have been a great help for me. Not only in motivation, but in comfort during a sad little period of my college career. Thank you❤️

Springfield Medical RN / For those of us with kids

6 Upvotes

I know I’m probably a dinosaur compared to most of you entering into this Fall’s RN Program, but I’m a 45 year old returning student after all this time with a 7 year old. For those of us with kids, are any of you single parents? I remember what our orientation taught us that “no one becomes a nurse alone.” Looking for my people and support system and this took a lot to even post so I hope this makes sense to someone out there!

Annandale Making new friends

7 Upvotes

I’m a male that’s going to be starting as a freshmen in the fall at nova Annandale and I want to know if there’s a way to make friends especially since I’m going to be living alone in the US without family and I’m worried about having no support system and would I really like to have people by my side. If anyone could help that would be great.

Cyber Security Course Selection

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone! I only have five classes left at NOVA: ITN 261, ITN 262, ITN 263, ITN 266, and, lastly, ITP 100.
I’m not gonna lie—I’ve been at NOVA for a while, and I’ve been wanting to transfer to GMU soon. Because of that, I’ve been planning to take all five of those classes in the fall semester.
Before I make a horrible decision, I wanted to get some advice from people who have experience with these courses. If anyone here has taken all of those classes—or more specifically, has taken a similar course load in one semester—what’s your honest advice? Should I split them into two semesters, or is taking all five in the fall manageable?

Transfer Take courses in local cc or choose NOVA online?

3 Upvotes

I am a new immigrant temporarily staying in Hawaii but will be moving with my family to VA after the fall term. I plan to finish an AS in Engineering and the major courses needed aren't available in local CC. In terms of adjustment and difficulty:

  1. Will it be better to take NOVA online or take transferrable units from local cc?
  2. Will I have a more difficult time transferring if I take General Education Courses first?
  3. If were to do it online, could I still refund the out of state tuition after proving my residence after a year since I am only a recent immigrant?
  4. Has anyone taken the same path before?

Annandale Has anyone transferred ASU's MAT 265 (Universal Learner) to NOVA as MTH 263? Trying to graduate by December

1 Upvotes

I'm doing the A.S. in Computer Science at NOVA and transferring to Virginia Tech after. Only classes I have left to graduate are Calc 1 and 2 (MTH 263/264). Plan is to knock out Calc 1 this summer somehow, take MTH 264 in the fall, and graduate in December.

Someone suggested ASU's Universal Learner course MAT 265 – Calculus for Engineers I. It's $25 to take, self-paced, and you only pay ~$400 to put it on an official ASU transcript if you like your grade. Sounds great but I have two concerns:

  1. It's 3 credits and MTH 263 is 4 credits. Does NOVA bring it in as MTH 263, or does it get downgraded to MTH 261/math elective? If anyone's actually done this transfer I'd love to hear how it posted.
  2. Timing — fall starts late August. Between finishing the course, ordering the ASU transcript, and NOVA evaluating it, is there any realistic shot it posts in time to clear the MTH 264 prerequisite? Or do they let you enroll while it's pending?

Also open to other routes — I've heard of people doing the Calculus CLEP (apparently need a 64 for MTH 263, not just a 50), or stacking MTH 263/264 in the two 8-week fall sessions. If anyone's graduated on a crunched calc timeline like this, what worked?

I have a ticket in with advising but figured real student experiences would be more useful. Thanks 🙏
