   buckeye rosie replied to stackbundles's topic in Pre-Nursing

2. How do/did you make yourself stand out?

   buckeye rosie replied to buckeye rosie's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Nope, no mention of needing recommendation letters either. That's also disappointing as I know several nurses that have worked 15+ years and could write me awesome letters! But, there is no mention of not being able to include a personal letter. I...

   How do you make yourself stand out from the crowd when applying for nursing school when there is: no essay to fill out, no interview, no entrance exam......... I'm applying for an accelerated program that does not require any of the above. I was a h...

5. Anyone trying for a 2nd degree?

   buckeye rosie replied to FutureRN1908's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I'll jump in the boat too! I totally goofed off just about my whole first undergrad, managed a 2.8 . That was in 2001, and my prereq GPA now so far is a 3.8. I'm hoping the accelerated BSN programs I'm applying to are not going to look at that fir...

7. ABSN vs. BSN

   buckeye rosie posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

   Hi all, I just found out (today) that I cannot apply to both the traditional and accelerated BSN programs at CSU-Pueblo. I thought I saw somewhere on this site that accelerated programs were "easier" to get into, is this true? The program would not...

   I have a B.S. in Education and I'm finishing up my prereqs as well. I plan on applying to a traditional BSN program as well as 2 ADN programs. The 2 ADN programs both have waiting lists and one requires the entrance exam. (eek!) If I don't get int...

    Well I just took my A&P II final this morning.....it was so hard! I need an 80 to get an A in the course so I'm just praying for the 80 or maybe an 81. Micro-A Chem-B (which I am so mad about--no one got an A in that class and my teacher was HOR...

12. How soon can you apply to a nursing program? Do you need to finish ALL pre-reqs?

    buckeye rosie replied to GilbertDaddy's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Of the 3 schools I'm applying to, 2 want all prereqs completed and they're ADN programs. For the BSN I just have to have 50% done. Weird.
