			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi&#8230;<br />
I was wondering if anyone had any opinions on the best way to earn my RN going to school part time. I have an associate degree at Mt. Sac and finished some prerequisite for the program.  But Mt. Sac College offer only full time rn program. I live in Rowland Hts, so closer to the city is better, although I&#8217;d be willing to commute. Any help or suggestions would be helpful. Thanks in advance.<br />
<br />I think you need to clarify with your school what their definition of &quot;full time&quot; is. </p>
<p>From a school&#8217;s perspective full-time is usually 12 credits per semester minimum as you advance towards the degree. . . that&#8217;s assuming you are starting from scratch and have to complete ALL the general education courses AND nursing courses in that same time frame of two years. </p>
<p>If you already have completed your general education requirements for the degree and only need to take the nursing courses, then there is no need to attend &quot;full time&quot;. Nursing courses are sequenced and will be completed in 2 years (4 semesters in a semester based program). Y<a href="" target=></a>ou might only need to take 7-10 credits of nursing courses per semester, which is part time. You&#8217;d have classes 1-2 days per week on campus and then 1 day of clinicals (this is how most programs work anyway). </p>
<p>I hope that makes sense. Talk to your school&#8217;s academic advisors to ask how this would work in your circumstances given that you hold the Assoc. Degree already.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I will be joining Univ again soon and am slightly anxious. It stems from my previous degree program that I completed (bachelors) where in the classroom and courses, I most of the time, felt ignored by others. Classmates were either just polite, or simply indifferent even when I made attempts to participate or get interested in their life. (This, despite the fact that I am naturally a little reserved by nature but yet I made a lot of effort) It used to hurt to feel so alone. This made me ask questions on why it&#8217;s happening. One of the differences between me and them was that I am from a completely different country and culture (india). I look different, I speak different (my english is pretty good, maybe accent&#8217;s a bit different). I understand I don&#8217;t have anything in common really with the american students, but still, it hurt that i could never make a friend throughout my program. No one would ask me to hang out with them or do things with them, like they would ask each other. No one would ask me about my culture or life or family etc. I am of the opinion, that normally people are curious and they ask. But to see that no one even wanted to know (and learn something new in the process) was odd. I used to get odd looks or simply indifferent looks or a fake politeness from most. If someone was genuinely polite, it used to end there. I used to get uncomfortable in group assignments, because I felt ignored when I contributed suggestions. So<a href="" target=></a>mehow, I completed the program unhappily. I became involved in my own cultural group in Univ and that made me feel good. I felt a whole lot more &quot;accepted&quot; there. Had friends who would want to hang out with me. This made me feel that perhaps a different culture was the sole reason why this was happening? Maybe i was just unfortunate to have gotten into a class that wasn&#8217;t very open-minded. Now several years later, I am going for another degree program in a different Univ in the same state (texas). It&#8217;s going to be about 2-3 yrs in length, and i might be completing this sequentially from start to end with the same group of students. I am just uncomfortable thinking about it. I hope I don&#8217;t have a similar experience. Most likely, I will again be the only odd one out as an Asian Indian student in the program. How can I prepare myself for this, so I have a more +ve experience. I am not sure if any of you can identify with this feeling of being left out but the whole learning experience can suffer because of this, even when we are adults. I am a lot more confidant and self-assured now, but feel low thinking about this. Would love to have your opinion on this and any tips perhaps. </p>
<p>Thanks so much.<br />
Hi Robert, thanks for your comment. It&#8217;s the very thing that concerns me. I have already reached out to them &#8216;in many ways&#8217;, and yet I did not get a likewise response, except surface politeness, and that&#8217;s where they ended. I felt like I was in high school and not college. That too, this was a graduate program. Very disappointing. What else can I do? I should be able to be my self and not try &#8216;too hard&#8217; either.<br />
<br />Hi Flame,<br />
The more you accept yourself, and love yourself for who you are, the more others will accept you.<br />
You are overanalyzing the whole issue.<br />
I hope I&#8217;m not being too blunt, but that is really what it comes down to.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I will be joining Univ again soon and am slightly anxious. It stems from my previous degree program that I completed (bachelors) where in the classroom and courses, I most of the time, felt ignored by others. Classmates were either just polite, or simply indifferent even when I made attempts to participate or get interested in their life. (This, despite the fact that I am naturally a little reserved by nature but yet I made a lot of effort) It used to hurt to feel so alone. This made me ask questions on why it&#8217;s happening. One of the differences between me and them was that I am from a completely different country and culture (india). I look different, I speak different (my english is pretty good, maybe accent&#8217;s a bit different). I understand I don&#8217;t have anything in common really with the american students, but still, it hurt that i could never make a friend throughout my program. No one would ask me to hang out with them or do things with them, like they would ask each other. No one would ask me about my culture or life or family etc. I am of the opinion, that normally people are curious and they ask. But to see that no one<a href="" target=></a> even wanted to know (and learn something new in the process) was odd. I used to get odd looks or simply indifferent looks or a fake politeness from most. If someone was genuinely polite, it used to end there. I used to get uncomfortable in group assignments, because I felt ignored when I contributed suggestions. Somehow, I completed the program unhappily. I became involved in my own cultural group in Univ and that made me feel good. I felt a whole lot more &quot;accepted&quot; there. Had friends who would want to hang out with me. This made me feel that perhaps a different culture was the sole reason why this was happening? Maybe i was just unfortunate to have gotten into a class that wasn&#8217;t very open-minded. Now several years later, I am going for another degree program in a different Univ in the same state (texas). It&#8217;s going to be about 2-3 yrs in length, and i might be completing this sequentially from start to end with the same group of students. I am just uncomfortable thinking about it. I hope I don&#8217;t have a similar experience. Most likely, I will again be the only odd one out as an Asian Indian student in the program. How can I prepare myself for this, so I have a more +ve experience. I am not sure if any of you can identify with this feeling of being left out but the whole learning experience can suffer because of this, even when we are adults. I am a lot more confidant and self-assured now, but feel low thinking about this. Would love to have your opinion on this and any tips perhaps. </p>
<p>Thanks so much.<br />
Hi Robert, thanks for your comment. It&#8217;s the very thing that concerns me. I have already reached out to them &#8216;in many ways&#8217;, and yet I did not get a likewise response, except surface politeness, and that&#8217;s where they ended. I felt like I was in high school and not college. That too, this was a graduate program. Very disappointing. What else can I do? I should be able to be my self and not try &#8216;too hard&#8217; either.<br />
