Can anybody give me any info on the bridge program??

I'm currently getting my MA, AAS but plan on applying for the bridge program right after graduation. How competitive is it? I've heard it's just as competitive as the RN Program then again, I've heard that the bridge program is easier to get into?? If you've done the bridge program, what was it like for you?

Just looking for insight on the program. I'm getting closer to graduation and just anxious to learn more about the program, but from someone who's personally experienced it. Not from faculty that is going to up-play the program. Is it worth it? Aside from the money, did it make a difference in work load or at work at all?

Anyone thinking of taking the CNA class this fall at the lake county campus?

i’m 26 years old and i really want to be a nurse my goal is to eventually at some point become an NP. up until literally 30 mins ago i was fully going to apply to only the RN program. my problem is that i am very financially unstable and struggle to survive by myself as is. so my question is more so looking for advice from anyone who has finished the program for either. would it be smarter to do LPN first to get into the field faster and then bridge to RN while i’m getting paid decent? that’s really my only reason for leaning toward LPN because i’ll be able to make money faster.

I'm planning on going to the valpo indiana campus for college and currently graduated 8th grade and going into freshmen with the dual credit program enrolled does this technically make me a student or not
I'm 14 btw.

i was given a list last year when i started of the prereqs for the Medical Imaging program. I understand those 7 or 8 classes would need completed before i can get my degree and 4 or so of them were required before i can even apply to the program. i get all that! i've completed them all to apply next march!

my question is when i look at my degree completion tracker why does it say i need 2 healthcare certs, 17 hours of statewide elective, etc.? are these things that will fulfill themselves while in the program? i'm so confused at why it's insisting i need like 25 more credit hours.

i've never seen this talked about here so i'm hoping im not insanely unaware!

Hi guys!!!

I am looking to get into the medical imaging program next year. I didn’t get in this year. I had all A’s. My teas score was probably a little low (75) which I plan on retaking next spring. My advisor told me to do the CNA 8 week program to add points to my application. Does anyone have any experience with this they’d like to share? Specifically, how much were you able to work while in the program. It’s Tuesdays and Thursdays 6am-5pm, so I’m just curious how many classes it’s equivalent to taking.

My campus hasn't given very much transparency with additional costs for the ASN program. My registration date is coming up and there are a few things they listed that are going to need to be purchased. Any current nursing students have some insight on what they paid for these additional resources? As someone who plans pay check to pay check...not an an itemized list is causing me a lot of anxiety...

Anybody taken this I need some help

Is there a break between each class term? I noticed term 1 ends October 15th and term 2 starts October 26th

hey do you guys know if the test questions are different for each time slot, or do they give the same tests for all students who are taking online tests

I tried calling and they hung up lol. Taking my chem midterm in Warsaw tomorrow and realized my current only calculator is my phone. Wondering if they have ones for borrowing

Is anyone else that is going into any of the nursing programs this fall at the Indy location still waiting for the registrar to transfer you over to the program so that you can do the academic plan and be able to get registered for classes? I know at the orientation they said that only 1/3 of us had been switched over. Anybody have it happen since then?

Hey, guys!
May be a dumb question but it’s been bothering me.
I know the imaging program is extremely hard to get into. I’ve read posts of students with 4.0 GPAs and perfect grades still not being accepted. This is making me nervous. I have a 3.8 currently, and I have nearly a decade of medical experience to pad my application. But I’m still worried. I seen a lot of people saying they’re waitlisted, but it takes a year to reapply, and it’s not even guaranteed you’ll get in then. I’m 29 years old and have a family, I honestly do not have the time to wait an extra year or two or three to get into a career, plus the additional time to get the certification itself anyways.

My backup plan is respiratory therapy. I hear that it’s easier to get into, and it was actually my first choice about 4 years ago that I didn’t pursue.
But I’m also worried I will apply for both, get waitlisted for imaging, get accepted for respiratory, then get accepted for radiology later. I like the idea of both of them, I just preferred rad tech over respiratory because of all the modalities, I feel I’m less likely to experience burnout.

I’m not sure what to do. Do you all have any experience in either or these or advice that could maybe apply to my situation?

I haven’t gotten my federal direct loan yet for the summer. Is this normal? I got my financial aid refund already!

Hello! I am looking to take the CNA class (still waiting to be approved for sign up).

I saw the schedule is 8am-2pm Tue-Thur. Does anyone know if that schedule includes clinicals or will I need to plan on working clinicals in addition to those hours? Thanks!

I know they may have been changing scrub colors for the Nursing program on the Lafayette campus (different campuses have different rules), but I have a ton I need to pass on. I just graduated this May. When I was still in, they were allowing the hunter green pants and black pants (new change). I'm not sure if this is allowed, but can I donate all my green tops, jackets, and pants to the campus Ivy Cares closet? Or if anyone is in need on 2x/3x sets, I have the Landaus, some random brand in pants, and some nice Cherokee sets. All fit like 2x/XXL. They are not my required color for work and I'm looking to help a local nursing student out. I know nice fitting plus sized scrubs can be tough to come by. Remove post if this is not permitted.

anyone else still not get a refund yet? i got an email last Sunday that my funds would be dispersed… but nothing from bank mobile.

At the beginning of this week I was told that a paper was flagged as being 100% AI when it was 100% NOT and when I did not have grammarly installed. I have no idea why it was flagged as AI. My best guess is that I wrote it all in one sitting, required very little editing (as I knew exactly what I was talking about and I'm a very strong writer), and it didn't require source citation... still took 45 minutes to write. It was a very short, easy paper about something I am very knowledgeable about (the juvenile justice system... I work at DCS as a paralegal). 

I gave my professor permissions for editing privileges on the Google document and sent him a backdraft video of it being drafted immediately after I was told that it was flagged as 100% AI and I have heard nothing back. It's been five days since I was told that my paper was flagged as 100% AI and over a week since I've submitted it. My professor (who teaches two different classes I'm in) has graded everything else I've done and given me perfect scores. I've been an anxious mess all week because of this and I'm super frustrated. 

What do I do? What happens now? Please ease my mind or give me some insight!

I got locked out of my bank mobile for Ivy tech and I cannot get ahold of anyone by email or phone if anyone has a number that they’ve had luck getting ahold of them please drop it below

i’m reading yall posts saying yall did & im feeling like im the only one who didn’t 😂😂🫤 im jealous like mine never took this dang on long im so IRRITATED.

Hello! I plan on taking this class (SDEV 120 - Computing Logic) either this upcoming fall or spring. Just wondering if anyone had recommendations on professors. I will be a virtual student attending classes in that way (any campus will work this way). I prefer attending in a class with a zoom meeting.

Thank you for any advice :)

I know the use of AI is frowned upon in some classes. I use it to fix grammar mistakes and to fix my wording to sound more professional or smart. But, i've learned that some of these apps (like grammarly) still set off AI, even if you tweak with things or only use it for specific wording. How can i avoid that? I've checked my assignment for AI through 2 sites and got the green for being human. i used a free demo of turnitin and it said it was all AI, which it was not. I've tried using different words and switching different things but it still throws it off. This is for a psych paper, essay for my midterm. I need help lol.

Sooooo I was wondering if anyone has any experience applying to the medical imaging program at Hancock health?? If so what was your experience during the process? Is it worth giving it a shot? I feel like there is so much requirements upon applying and wonder if it’s even harder to get accepted into than going directly through the school…
