Baylor BSN 2014 Spring Applicants

U.S.A. Texas

Published

I was just wondering if there is anyone else applying for the 2014 spring program. It's my first time applying to a nursing school so I'm excited! My HESI is overall average 86% (not that great) and overall gpa 3.7, also I'd be considered a transfer student. Hope to hear from ya'll!

Hey! First and foremost, welcome to BULHSON! Sorry for the long time taken to respond, the semester has been very busy and going by fast! Yeah it seems I got lucky with this thread because no one seems to post about Baylor for some reason. Idk why....

Anywho, I personally bought 3 sets of scrubs, but have still yet to put a patch on the 3rd set (they only give us 2 patches I believe) so you'd have to buy the third. But I work with alot of nurses that went to LHSON, so I have alot of extra scrubs with/out patches if you need any. Our first semester, alot of the students had problems with the e-book package, I can't say what exactly it was because I got the actual books. To be honest I think its what you're most comfortable with. I personally like the reliability of books, but I have used the ebooks alot. I would also be careful with amazon because you will need alot of the resources and codes for your classes especially your J1 semester, then again I know there were some students that have bought from amazon. I don't use baylor's insurance because I had private insurance prior to enrollment, so I don't know if financial aid covers that. Alot of students get their vaccines through them(recommended clinic), again I work at the hospital so am able to get it there.

I promise you we all felt the exact same way when we first started. The first semester is stressful but because it is alot of information to take in, learn , and apply. But we are all in the learning process so know that there are upper level students willing to help and give advice. You'll never feel entirely alone here. Plus the staff are amazing they are so nice and helpful so never be afraid to ask. For any other questions that we can't answer (health insurance/vaccines), just call the nursing school and ask. But I hope this helps some :up: goodluck!
