1. New grad RN relocating to NC

   mcmoore replied to Nurseynurse2011's topic in North Carolina

   I actually got a call this morning from Johnson Medical Center to interview for a job on the 3rd floor peds/med surg unit. I'm so surprised I even got a call because I don't graduate until December! This will be my first interview so I'm really nervo...

   mcmoore replied to kellmoiselle's topic in North Carolina

   Thanks for the information Lovee T! If I think of anymore questions, I'll be sure to ask you. It will definitely be helpful to know someone a year ahead in the program. Thanks again.

3. UNC School of Nursing vs. Watts School of Nursing

   mcmoore replied to mcmoore's topic in North Carolina

   Thanks so much for the information! I got my acceptance to UNC last week, and I decided to go there after much thought! Which program are you in, and how intense would you say it is? Are you enjoying the program?

4. Watts Acceptance! :)

   mcmoore replied to LPNwannabeRN's topic in North Carolina

   Laurie - it doesn't take too long at all. I submitted all of my application materials, and then heard back about 2 or 3 weeks later - so not long at all. Good luck!!!

   I haven't heard anything about shoes/stethoscopes/use of a PDA. The only thing I know that they require are watches with a sweeping second hand! I'm guessing we will have an orientation closer to our start date and hopefully they will give us more in...

   mcmoore replied to ICU11's topic in North Carolina

   momofthreeboys - yes I plan on going to UNC! I'm still so excited from receiving my letter!! I'm not sure about the background check. Maybe once we send in confirmation that we will be attending UNC, they will send more information about it in the ma...

   I finally got my letter in the mail today and got accepted to the BSN program!! Good luck to all of you still waiting on your letters! My letter was postmarked on Tuesday and I live in Raleigh, so hopefully the rest of you will hear something tomorro...

8. Watts Acceptance! :)

   mcmoore replied to LPNwannabeRN's topic in North Carolina

   Hey starmickey03! I already had a bachelors degree when I applied to Watts and my overall GPA was about a 3.5, but I don't think GPA matters too much. I think the school is somewhat competitive, but it seems to me that the two most important parts of...

9. UNC Chapel Hill deadline changed for May 2010

   mcmoore replied to ICU11's topic in North Carolina

   Thanks for all of this information guys! I applied for the BSN program and have been running to the mail every day for the past week! I'm glad to finally get a break from all of the anxiety since the mail doesn't run today! Hopefully we will hear som...

10. Watts Acceptance! :)

    I think you have one class at a time, but each class lasts about 3 weeks or so. It does seem like a lot though in a relatively short amount of time. I have had all of the prerequisites, but I think I want to take them again to refresh my memory!

11. Watts Acceptance! :)

    From what I hear, classes at Mount Olive college run from June-November and last from 6:00-10:00 two nights a week. If you have any of the prereqs, you are able to take different classes, and possibly online classes, but you are required to take at l...

13. Another question about Watts

    mcmoore replied to DaniGrrl's topic in North Carolina

    Danigrrl, I'm not exactly sure what they look for when deciding who to accept to Watts, but just because you don't think you're an ideal candidate doesn't mean you won't get in! I am 22 years old and have no health care experience. I actually have wa...

    I'll be starting at Mount Olive in June 2010 too!!!! Congratulations!!

    mcmoore replied to mcmoore's topic in North Carolina

    Thanks for the advice momofthreeboys! I have been hawking the mailman every day waiting to get my letter from UNC in the mail, so I'm glad to know that they probably won't send anything out until next week, even though that's really frustrating! Good...
