   JTravelsTheWorld replied to TheVitalRN's topic in COVID

   So we were told to not wear masks. I have to get very close to all patients and do frequent temperature checks. Not only am I worried about my safety, I am worried about patient safety. I interact closely with all patients and I’m concerned about tra...

2. Seattle University APNI 2019 Applicant Questions?

   JTravelsTheWorld replied to Hopeful for Humanity's topic in NP Students

   Current student here. School keeps getting cancelled due to the weather. This likely means you will have to wait longer than usual, so don't get too nervous if you haven't heard anything.

3. Seattle University APNI 2019 Applicant Questions?

   JTravelsTheWorld replied to Hopeful for Humanity's topic in NP Students

   @3catsinSF There are research opportunities for both APNI (1st year) and DNP (last 3 years) students. That being said, most people doing research during our first year did most of it outside of school. They might have an SU faculty advisor though. Mo...

4. Seattle University APNI 2019 Applicant Questions?

   JTravelsTheWorld replied to Hopeful for Humanity's topic in NP Students

   Hello! I am also a current student, and I just wanted to chime in since I remember this time being incredibly stressful. If you haven't heard back by now, don't give up hope please. I remember getting pretty down last year because a bunch of people h...

5. Seattle University APNI 2019 Applicant Questions?

   JTravelsTheWorld replied to Hopeful for Humanity's topic in NP Students

   It can be difficult to find affordable housing near campus and even farther away. That being said, I know folks who have affordable (not nice) housing close to campus because of construction day/night next to their building. Don't be afraid to look f...

   I am in the current APNI group. I believe I found out about my interview at the beginning of Feb. I decided to interview towards the end of Feb. I was offered a spot a 2-3 days later. It all depends on your track though. I remember some folks in othe...

7. ABSN UW Summer 2019

   JTravelsTheWorld replied to hhnurse89's topic in School Programs

   Brush up on your basic math skills if you don't feel comfortable with them. You are not allowed a calculator, so make sure you can still do long division, multiplication, etc. with whole and decimal numbers.

8. Seattle University Transfer 2018

   JTravelsTheWorld replied to stephaniek1's topic in School Programs

   I went to SU for undergrad in another field and getting on campus housing is hard. I think they only guarantee it for freshman now (not sure about sophomores). That being said, if you have more credits coming in, your chances will likely be much high...

9. Just got accepted to nursing school and I'm not excited.

   JTravelsTheWorld replied to mom2twins9909's topic in General Students

   It just sounds like you just might be nervous about making a big change, which is making you doubt your decision to go into nursing. This is normal. You will get through it. It will be hard and nursing school is big unknown for you right now. I suspe...

10. DNP v. MSN/ARNP

    JTravelsTheWorld replied to redreba's topic in NP Students

    Schools are transitioning to DNP programs versus MSN programs. I would look at how much additional schooling you would need to do for a DNP after an MSN then do a cost benefit analysis. Maybe you will end up spending more time in school if you do a M...

11. Seattle University Transfer 2018

    JTravelsTheWorld replied to stephaniek1's topic in School Programs

    I was accepted, but I will be declining the invitation. I will be attending the APNI DNP program at SU instead. Hopefully, this helps someone on the waitlist out. Congrats to everyone on your hard work.

    JTravelsTheWorld replied to tulipsweeti's topic in School Programs

    I was accepted into my fist choice direct entry DNP program. I will be removing my name from the UW ABSN waitlist. Hopefully this helps someone out there. Best of luck to all those waitlist warriors! : )

    I was also offered admission to the PMHNP track yesterday after my interview on Friday. I am beyond excited. I can't wait to meet everyone. I know people who were accepted from the waitlist, so don't give up hope.

15. Seattle University Transfer 2018

    JTravelsTheWorld replied to stephaniek1's topic in School Programs

    They asked me different questions than the previous poster. Other schools have said not to share the interview questions because it gives an unfair advantage to some. I am going to follow these same guidelines just in case. That being said, the quest...
