1. Yearly Bonus Ripped Off?

   copacetic replied to cd365c's topic in General Nursing

   I think the issue was with the amount taken in taxes (40%), not the fact that it was taxed, no?

2. Chamberlain college of nursing rejection

   copacetic replied to Jennyj1991's topic in Virginia

   IMO, you'd be better off going the community college route. If you're in Arlington, that'd be NVCC. Excellent NCLX pass rate. Plus, you'd save a ton of $$$, and job prospects after graduation are MUCH better.

3. Student Applying to NVCC For Nursing Program Starting in Fall 2014 & SPRING 2015

   copacetic replied to tasher803's topic in Virginia

   Best of luck to both of you! I just finished up at NVCC - pinning was Tuesday. Don't stress too much over the TEAS. Seriously, they really are a lot like the placement exams. Your GPA shows that you are capable of doing well.

   mrdarkwhorse - I can't find it on FB. Could you send the link to me as well? kwaynick4 AT gmail DOT com. Thanks!

5. NVCC Class of 2014 Meet & Greet

   copacetic replied to meliflor's topic in Virginia

   Hey, guys! I'm Kelly and I've been stressing about getting accepted since January when I submitted my application. What a huge weight off my shoulders to get that acceptance letter! I've been taking classes at NVCC since 2010. In that time, I've ma...

   Anyone know how to start a FB Group? What's the difference between a 'Group' and a 'Page'? OK - yes... I'm old!

   A 2014 forum sounds great! If someone sets it up, please let the rest of us know. Another thought - I remember seeing where a new class of nursing students started a facebook page. Anyone interested in doing that? This could be fun! And, it mi...

8. OVER-40 Fall 2012 Nursing Students--Roll Call

   copacetic replied to laski's topic in General Students

   Hi, laski! Another over-40 newbie here! I just found out *yesterday* that I was accepted in this fall's nursing class. It's my local community college in Northern Virginia, and they actually have an excellent rep with the hospitals in the area. Let...

    penguin - A while ago I got a letter in the mail and an email stating that my package has been received and it was being forwarded to the department for review. However, I did NOT receive an email that states that they should be sending out acceptan...

    Marmite - I submitted my application several months ago as well, and have not received this latest email either. If you do call, please let us know what you find out! Is it just me, or does it seem these last few weeks are the slowest?!? Best of l...

    copacetic replied to copacetic's topic in Virginia

    I'm noticing so many inconsistencies with the confirmations of them receiving the applications. I got a letter in the mail, but did not get an email. It seems that some folks got both, and others got neither. Just the discrepancies are making me n...

    TrulyBlessed1 - Did you get your packet in yet? Keep us posted! ncy28 - We're definitely in the same boat. Sooooo nervous! I'm also expecting to see traffic on this thread buid up as time goes by. Either that, or a new one started. It's nice k...

    copacetic replied to copacetic's topic in Virginia

    I think that's what makes the wait so difficult. There's no way of knowing what your GPA/TEAS scores mean unless we have everyone else's to compare them to. No way at all of knowing if they're tops, mediocre, or bottom-of-the-barrel. I'm thinking ...

15. The Wait Begins... Any Other NVCC 2012 Hopefuls?

    copacetic replied to copacetic's topic in Virginia

    Still nervous. I wish I could just put it out of my head for a while. I wonder if there's any way to find out if there's an average GPA or test score for applicants? Not what is required by the program, but the average of these numbers for the folk...
