I am not sure about a list of required sciences. I had to take it because I never took a college level chemistry or pathophysiology. Also my A&P is over 8 years old and I don't know if that had anything to do with it or not. I would say talk to y...

EvergladesRN, Before you call people out on a nursing forum maybe you should think before you type! People's circumstances are different. Tasha's circumstances are most likely different than yours. She is super woman, and she will make one heck of an...

I signed my Intent to Enroll Letter and paid my $650 fee on Monday. I now have my email, and access to 2SN. How long will it take to get my welcome call?

pacnwrn: I would email them tomorrow morning and then call them in the afternoon. I'm sure that it doesn't mean anything bad. Have you received the email that your application has been sent to faculty? I'm rooting for you!

That'a great! You'll have to keep us all posted on how it is going. Based off of what you have seen thus far, how many hours a week do you think you will have to put in? I keep thinking 30 hours. Does that sound about right?
TereseRN replied to TashaLPN2006RN2012's topic in NP Students
How long was your SOP? Thanks for the support ya'll, I really do appreciate it and I hope I get accepted! Tasha I live in VA definitely further than 2 hours:) So for this biology course, could they do a payment plan? I'm sure that many students can n...

Thanks. Unfortunately it has already been submitted. I wrote, re-wrote, and re-wrote again until I had it just right. I had an FNP, MD, PA, my nursing friends, and my cousin who is an english major review it and proof read after each re-write. I spen...

So I am freaking out. I just attended a Nursing@Simmons webinar that had FNP students discussing what the program is like. They started talking about the statement of purpose and they said 1-2 pages double space. When I typed in my question that my S...

Yes, the May cohort and part time? How about everybody else? I really hope I get in! I'm sure they have a lot of applications to go through. I wonder what type of order they view the applications. If it is in alphabetical order.
