Calling all Truman College Nursing Students

U.S.A. Illinois

Published

Hi,

Are there any nursing students from Truman on here? Past or present. I have some questions that I can't seem to find the answer to on their website.

1. Is the admission still "lottery system" based? How would that exactly work? I saw on their website that they award points on GPA (ex: "4 X 4 = 16 pts for an A in A&P"). If it's a lottery, how come they look at GPA?

2. What GPA did you have when you got in? Are you a current or past student?

3. If it's GPA based, I think I'll have more luck getting in like that than the lottery. One last thing I wanted to ask, would any of you Truman students, past or present, be willing to sell or let me borrow your notes from Truman's Nursing School? I know you might think I'm trying to find an easy way out or cheat or something. What I really want to do, since I have the summer off, is to study ahead. I have done this in the past with Anatomy and Physiology and it has helped me tons. That's just how I learn. When I have free time, I just like to look at things from a non rushed way. Once school starts, I'll have 17 credit hours of classes and plus work. I will also be studying ahead for Microbiology and A&P this summer so I can really have a lot of time to digest the material.

*Please if you know anyone that would let me use their notes, contact me and I'll work someting out with them. :specs:

Thanks

Thank you hanwinting!!

Now, last question, about how many passages were there?

mine was around 5- 6 passages. the hardest one for me was the literature one. the rest were easy

gluck with the test!

I have a question do you need a CNA license to apply for the RN at truman and if yes does it matter where you get your CNA license???

Hi,

you don't need to be a CNA to apply to Truman RN. If you are a CNA, the only thing you get is the 1 extra point on the grading scale.

I hope this helps.

i am thinking of taking some pre req classes there i am currently an RMA and wish to continue my education as an RN. I want to know the opinion of those who have taken the nursing program and the pre req classes there. Also how much is the nursing program? Any help will be greatful please!:)

I'm a first year student. I really like the Truman Nursing Program! It has its ups and downs, but I would definitely recommend it. The cost for 1st and 2nd semester is about $3,000 total plus $1,000 for books.

I will be starting nursing at Truman this coming fall and have a few questions... I work, so I don't really have much of a choice as to which class I pick (will make sure to get there early so I can get it!) and Prof. Harmon teaches it. Anything you can tell me about this professor? Also, I read that you have to pay the same day? I always put it on a payment plan for my other classes (down payment right away then monthly payments)... do they allow you to do this for the nursing program too, or do you have to pay it all right away? Thanks!

do we need to buy Health insurance from school? if so how much is it? thanks

Chucha1981... I tried rate my professor and was unable to find Prof. Harmon. Am I doing something wrong? I typed "harmon," in and there was none listed for Truman College.

Truman has a prof. HUDA, I dont think it has a "Harmon"
