  2. Vanderbilt Nurse Residency Winter 2017

    Congrats all! I was invited for Cardiology dept interview. Although it will be super expensive - I hope to be able to travel to Nashville for the interview. Skype is an option but I think it is a disadvantage - especially since I won't be able to...

  4. Vanderbilt Nurse Residency Winter 2017

    I'm thinking of applying from out of state to be closer to family. Newbie nurse - how is the nurse residency program? Is it what you expected? any surprises? What area are you in?
  5. 10 Survival Tips for the Highly Sensitive Nurse

    Thanks so much for a thoughtful and practical post. I am HSP and a nursing student. I was a bit worried about whether my personality would be a problem in this field. One of the beauties of nursing is the variety of roles and jobs that a nurse can...
  6. UTHSC Fall 2015 Applications

    Good news for an anxious person on the wait list - I am declining my acceptance to UTHSC. The school is fantastic and the program is impressive but I have a full ride scholarship to UTMB that I just can't pass up. Good luck to all - I wish you the ...
  7. UTMB FALL 2015

    Before I started on this journey - I took all of my transcripts and reviewed them with someone from SON to make sure that I knew exactly how my classes would transfer since the course names/numbers were different from Texas schools. I petitioned to ...
  8. UTMB FALL 2015

    @chec86 - I earned a BS and an MBA degree from another state but I was told that I had to take Texas government .... which of course - was not required in another state. I would suggest that you confirm that you have all of your prerequisites so th...
  9. UTHSC Summer 2015 Application

    Yes - my humanities courses did count for philosophy .....but they said it was only because I already had a BS degree from another state. If you have a degree - you should be fine. If not - I would still push to see if they will accept it. They ...

  11. UTHSC Fall 2015 Applications

    @jbau89 - congrats! Not to be a total hypocrite or waffler - but my previous post on spending time with my son was based on my job in corporate America that requires travel and deadlines and a lot of time away from home - not a nursing job or nursi...
  12. UTHSC Fall 2015 Applications

    @jbau89 - as the mother of one son who worked crazy hours during his childhood - I applaud your decision. Your child is young for a short time- those years fly by and you can't get them back. Enjoy your program and your son. I'm sure you will be ...
  13. UTMB FALL 2015

    @ hiyou - Congrats on your acceptance! I did get an email from UTMB with a guide for next steps (I think before my status even changed). A few days later, I received a packet in the mail with more information, checklist for immunizations, steps for ...
  14. UTMB FALL 2015

    Yes - I applied. The deadline is tomorrow for anyone who has been invited. It sounds like a great opportunity but only a few are selected. Good luck to all.
  15. UTHSC Fall 2015 Applications

    Definitely apply again. I was denied for summer and accepted for fall...with the same exact application! I think UTHSC may see how much you want this. If this is your dream apply again. I know it is frustrated to see the " denied" status but th...
