1. New Graduate RN Residency Programs

   superWufie posted a topic in Career Support

   Hey everyone! I couldn't find that many posts specific to the residency/orientation programs available to new grads, so I thought I would start one :) I hear all kinds of good things about quality residency programs that help a brand new nurse get ac...

2. UNC ABSN 2012 Decisions Due Soon

   superWufie replied to wannabeUNC's topic in North Carolina

   Hi everyone! Just thought I would add that our class is going to be about 56 total students (that's the early admits and regular admits together). Congrats to those who got in and "don't give up!!" to those who haven't!

3. Accelerated BSN - UNC vs Duke

   superWufie replied to irishrose26's topic in North Carolina

   Hey! In my opinion, I would list the BSN programs in this order: Duke, UNC, Queens, UNC Charlotte, UNCG, NCCU, and WSSU. That list is based on what I've heard from students, physicians/nurses from the programs, and websites lol. UNC has the best clin...

   Whoa, I totally forgot to respond lol! Yes, I took the TEAS that day. Did anyone receive anything about our scores yet? I figured we would hear something by now!

5. UNC-CH ABSN for 2011

   superWufie replied to FSUcrewNole's topic in North Carolina

   ocennia, my mom and I were sitting in the row behind you! I didn't get a chance to meet you, though. Was your mom there with you, or was that someone else I met...? I just completed the onyen, and when I was sent back to the onyen home page, I scroll...

6. UNC-CH ABSN for 2011

   superWufie replied to FSUcrewNole's topic in North Carolina

   I can't post them on the boards, but there are a couple sites I found through Google that give you some practice questions for free. You kind of have to look past the ads, though. Don't fret! There are lots of questions out there, and the test wont b...

7. UNC-CH ABSN for 2011

   superWufie replied to FSUcrewNole's topic in North Carolina

   Me too! It's so frustrating. We were going to go apartment shopping after, but we can't until Sunday now. Anyway, I wouldn't fret too much about the test. It's on basic algebra and English, so nothing too bad. I'm sure you're quite able to handle it....

8. UNC-CH ABSN for 2011

   superWufie replied to FSUcrewNole's topic in North Carolina

   That stinks! Sorry to hear that. I've experienced similar miscommunications with several topics, too... I hope that what we've been hearing about the administration isn't true once we start. Just got an email with some orientation info! Dk anything ...

9. UNC-CH ABSN for 2011

   superWufie replied to FSUcrewNole's topic in North Carolina

   Ocennia: not that I don't believe you, but who told you that? After I told the financial aid person I emailed that I have a previous degree, she said I didn't have to file it... I also sent her a link to that page on the SON's website that says the s...

10. UNC-CH ABSN for 2011

    superWufie replied to FSUcrewNole's topic in North Carolina

    Thanks ocennia! I actually just remembered reading something about it once, and sure enough, when I looked it up on the SON website, only nursing students who do not have a previous undergrad degree have to do the Profile. So hopefully that's still t...

11. UNC-CH ABSN for 2011

    superWufie replied to FSUcrewNole's topic in North Carolina

    So I just got an email from UNC'S Scholarships and Student Aid Office that said we needed to submit the FAFSA and something called a CSS Profile for 2011-2012. Has anyone heard anything about this Profile? I know I haven't received any information ab...

12. Good books to prep for ABSN program

    superWufie replied to superWufie's topic in General Students

    Thanks to you both! Good advice... I was afraid that the nursing schools would have strict requirements about their books (since I know other admin protocol can change with schools), but if it's the same book, then hey! :) Good luck to you both!

13. Good books to prep for ABSN program

    superWufie posted a topic in General Students

    I will be starting the ABSN program at UNC in January. Long story short, I have no prior nursing experience and am getting anxious about how in-depth and intense the program material will be! So, I want to hunt down some study material to at least ge...

14. UNC-CH school of nursing Summer 2011 acceptance

    superWufie replied to UNC-CH 2011 HOPEFUL's topic in North Carolina

    ncsteph: I don't really like posting my stats or anything online, but I can say that I had "good" grades (nothing outrageous, but definitely no grades to sneeze at); the chemistries really gave me a hard time, but my other grades were pretty decent. ...

15. UNC-CH ABSN for 2011

    superWufie replied to FSUcrewNole's topic in North Carolina

    From what I've heard and what I know of the students and faculty at the two schools, the bottom line is this: You cannot go wrong, no matter which school you go to. Both are two of the most reputable schools in the nation (especially in their health ...
