1. ADN Post Grad Career Advice

   Tajin replied to kvuro's topic in Career Support

   Prospective CA nursing student here. NYC is probably similar to CA in terms of difficulty finding a RN position as a new grad nurse. Your options are limited because you can't drive, but I'd suggest you to get a PCT/Clerk/CNA position at any hospital...

3. Money to live on during nursing school? Loans?

   Tajin replied to hello77kitty's topic in General Students

   You're in California since you mentioned the BOGFW. If you qualify for the BOGFW then you're most likely low-income. You have loan options depending on your degree status. If you don't have a BS/BA yet, you still qualify for subsidized & unsub fe...

   I spoke with someone from the office and they said it was another two weeks of waiting for the generic students but they should be sending the packets out for career ladder students soon!

5. LVN deciding between LVN-ADN prog in a Comm College or General Entry BSN in Private School

   Tajin replied to Rbecca's topic in School Programs

   Apply to both then figure out which option is the best once you're accepted. It seems arrogant to even consider your options when you haven't even taken the TEAS. I hope I'm not coming off as a mean person, but it's the truth. I knew of some people w...

   Have you received anything else? LVN-RN transitional course starts on 01/03 so I feel like you should receive some paperwork/orientation very soon

   Tajin replied to Tajin's topic in School Programs

   Community college programs have state accreditation and universities have national accreditation. Don't worry about it too much just know that they're accredited and it'll allow you to take the NCLEX. As for the ADN-BSN collab program at CSULA, they ...

8. I have 4 W's on my record

   Tajin replied to OBear's topic in Pre-Nursing

   It depends what classes the Ws are in. If they are in the sciences then you might have a problem, but if they were psychology or something similar then it's probably fine. I had like 5 W's on my transcript. They were for classes that I didn't need so...

   Best of luck! I know some students were accepted very last minute, like a week before school started so there's hope.As for me, I'm anxiously waiting for the paperwork!!

10. BSN now or RN-BSN?

    Tajin replied to Tajin's topic in Pre-Nursing

11. CSU Sacramento or CSU Long Beach

    Tajin replied to TracyLago8's topic in Pre-Nursing

    If I were in your shoes I would choose CSU Sacramento because you'll likely be able to build your network there and find a better paying job compared to if you were to move to SoCal. But I told CSULB students have opportunities to contract with Long ...

12. Did I already mess up chances for getting into an ABSN in cali?

    Tajin replied to mforever123's topic in Pre-Nursing

    You need a minimum of 3.0 to apply for most ABSN programs in California. Your 3.3 GPA is actually the average for most of the accepted students for private schools so you'll be fine. You just need to do really well in your prerequisites, score in the...

    I'm surprised you're an alternate because you pretty much have a near perfect score with your stats...
