Looking to connect with any Watts applicants that are waiting to hear back from Watts on their acceptance or have already been accepted for the May 2012 start date......
Hey everyone!
I just turned in my background check on Monday and I'm wondering if I have a realistic shot at May. It took FOREVER for one of my recs to get me her form, so I turned my app packet in 2 weeks later than I had wanted. I would really love to start with all of you! Do you think that I should call and ask JH if there are any spots? I feel like I don't want to ruin any shot at even getting in at all by "bothering" her.
Thanks girls!
Thanks for the feedback! I think I will call on Monday and ask if all of the slots are filled. I may apply for Piedmont if May is out. I really want to go to Watts, but at the end of the day, I just want to be a nurse. I can't seem to find much info on Piedmont, though. I DO know that I would have to take much less in the way of pre-recs.
I know you didn't ask, but if you stand a chance to get into Watts go for it. They have an incredible reputation and even more incredible number of students who pass the NCLEX first time out. They are so organized and provide you with great clinical experience that you would be hurting yourself not to keep going in this direction first, especially if you cant find a thing out about Piedmont. At the end of the day, there are good nurses and bad nurses...you want to be a well educated good nurse.
Well I hope that y'all can make room for me because I rec'd my acceptance a few hours after I wrote my last post! My head is spinning! I went from getting my app in to acceptance in less than three weeks..whoah.
At any rate, my name is Natalie. I have a BS in Child Development/Family Studies and did my internship in Child Life at The University of Wisconsin Children's Hospital. Grad in '03.
I'm 35 and a single mom to 2 little girls. Can't wait to get to know you all better.
Anybody have any insight on loans/grants/etc for Watts/MOV? I havent met with MOC yet so im kinda lost on all that right now. When I went to college before, it was just paid by my parents. I have the responsibility to pay for this myself and according to the FAFSA and the price per semester listed on the Watts website, I am a bit short even if I get the full amount listed on the FAFSA website. I am sure they will help with all of that, I am just a bit nervous right now about it.
