   Cari001 replied to tkzv's topic in Wisconsin

   This is also my second time applying and I've heard that it does help your application. They see that you really want this specific program. It also helps if you have all your pre-reqs completed. And yes I had the phone interview a couple weeks ago. ...

5. reconsidering a nursing career

   Cari001 replied to daisymae0's topic in General Students

   Hi Lola, I read your original post and I can definitely relate. It's scary to leave a familiar, stable 8-4 job. I am scared of the crazy hospital hours that nurses work. What did you end up doing? Are you in NS now? Good luck with whatever you decid...

   Cari001 replied to tkzv's topic in Wisconsin

   Hi Kimbery, Your score is great! I'm sure you will have no problem getting in. The finances is a huge hurdle. It is definately the most expensive program I'm applying to - Are you applying anywhere else? I'm applying to another Accelerated program an...

   Yes. I had the phone interview before too and it was very program specific. Study the website very well. Kimberly, what was your TEAS score? Mine was 75. I hope that's good enough.. but yes, we will stress until we get that acceptance letter! Good lu...

   Cari001 replied to tkzv's topic in Wisconsin

   I am applying for the May 11 cohort. I would love to hear from those who are applying too. I'm also interested in hearing the average TEAS V score... I know it's not known because it's new, but a range would be helpful.

9. TEAS test...what's your experience?

   Cari001 replied to curliegirl80RN's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Jenn, I feel the same! I just got done taking it and signing up to take it again sounds horrible! But worth it if it raises your score significantly. I think your score is great. I only got a 75, so I'm concerned. I ran out of time on some of the sec...

11. Any St Kates nursing student want to give me the heads up on what to expect.

    Cari001 replied to Jeannai's topic in Minnesota

    Yes that helps tremendously! Thank you. I can see both have their pros and cons. I'm thinking the evening option might be for me so I can work during the day as well. I'm sure I"ll have further questions after I get deeper in the application proces...

    Cari001 replied to Jeannai's topic in Minnesota

    Yes Dinah, you are awesome. It's hard to find someone who's been through the program and is willing to talk about it! Thanks for all the info on the different start dates. Do you have an opinion on which (day or evening cohort) is a better option? Al...

    Cari001 replied to Jeannai's topic in Minnesota

    Thanks Dinah. I'm going to attend an information session next month so hopefully that'll help. I only have a 3.3 gpa but the advisor made it seem like I have good chances. I also have a B.A degree. I don't need to work during the program... but since...

15. Any 1 starting St. Kates this Fall? Lets chat!!

    Cari001 replied to Jeannai's topic in Minnesota

    Good luck Jeannai! I'm not in the program, but I'm thinking of applying. On the website it doesn't say anything about the 2year program being day or evening. Do you get this option? Also is it a full-time commitment when you're in? I would hope i'd ...
