   It does suck... but now we need to move on, re-group & make a new plan. Things will work out in the end. Just remember sometimes the things that mean the most, are the hardest to get... Maybe we should make a nursing school reject page... lol j/...

   Itwould be nice to do that. I do think you have the option of taking the CNA exam after the first semester of nursing school. If you do that, it might get you in at a hospital somewhere & would look good on your resume as well. Just a thought. Go...

   TWU is traditional Spring & Fall like Nela said. UT Arlington has an accelerated program, but they have a few different pre-reqs then TWU. They go year round & I think it totals 18 months.Not sure if you are in the Dallas area or not.

   Thanks for the info. I knew there were quite a few different hospitals that do stuff like that, but wasn't sure which ones. :-) That is why I want to get a certification so I can get in at a hospital & hopefully get some help w/school & get s...

   I know! That is why I can only do it if I get some scholarships and financial aid of some sort. As for the Collin CNA program, go to the Collin website, then type: /nursing next to the url and hit enter. This should take you to the homepag...

   Holy cow! There are only 90 spots in Houston & 100 in Dallas... That is a lot of disappointed people out there. I guess they also had the pick of the litter too, with so many people. Congrats on UTMB :-)

    Nope, nothing. I guess the industry is exploding, but they have a lack of teachers for programs, so they have to keep things small. Bummer for us. Then again, I am glad they have high standards, hopefully that will make a better nurse force. I didn't...

    Bummer :-( Does that apply to Dallas as well? I actually applied there. I guess there is just no way to know is there? I have already come up with a new plan, but there is still a small speck of hope glimmering since I haven't heard yes or no. Good l...

    What about the people that accepted while they were waiting to hear from another school? I read several posts for Houston people that accepted, but were waiting to hear from another school and would later reject the TWU offer if they got accepted to ...

    FYI... if you live in Denton County, they do vaccines for $20 each at the health dept., this includes each Hep B shot, so it would be $60 for all 3... It is walk in basis and cash only. I called to check since I live up here. Way cheaper than my doct...
