Lone Star Fall 2012 ADN Applicants

U.S.A. Texas

Published

I applied to Lone Star - ADN program Spring 2012. I was accepted as an alternate. I am hoping to get a call from the nursing department saying there is a spot for me. If not I will be reapplying for the next application period for entrance to the program in the Fall 2012. Good luck everyone!!!!

Also if anyone still needs to get their physical and TB test I reconnect Walgreens the physical is $69 and the TB is $28 and u have to wait 4 weeks between the tb test and immunizations unless u do it all the same day, so it's important to get started now?

I was accepted at NH but have given my spot to an alternate due to unexpected family issues. It was hard to do but at least someone else will be getting exciting news and get to attend the program. I think I will be applying for Spring admission, not sure which campus. I had already completed SS verif, background and CPR before I made the decision. Guess I'll be ready on the next go round.

Thank you for t he info. I cant believe I bypassed it on the acceptance letter...can i blame excitement of getting admitted?

Now that I think about it the information about SS verification may have been on NH 2012 Nursing admits web page.

ADVICE!!! I see that some of you are taking classes this summer to finish up before the program. I'm having BIG trouble deciding on what I should do... I have finished all required classes for my ADN at lonestar inwhich I start mont. in the fall, BUT I really would like to go for my BSN one day and the college has different colleges trying to get the ADNs to go straight for their BSN classes right after graduation. Heres the problem, I'm lacking now around 6 classes for the BSN program. Should I take some classes this summer so that I can finish them up before I start nursing class?

I have to pay for it out of pocket, and I have two beautiful children who I would love to spend the summer with before the craziness starts! If I do take some classes I would like to take a mini mester and I would have to start before the orientation. Please, any advice is greatly appreciated.

Hmmm...I don't know! I guess if you take a few this summer then you could take a few next summer and be ready to go for early admittance after we're finished? I know what you mean about wanting to spend time with the kids...I have to take pharmacology and I still have statistics left to take for BSN admission, so I'm stuck taking both this summer. I could do statistics next summer, but I think my family and I are going to be desperate for a 100% break after 2 semesters of insanity.:-/It's a tough call, though.

I have already taken micro. I thought it was easy, but the practical were a bit challenging. I earned an A last summer at Cy-fair. I really enjoyed the instructor we had he was great at explaining things.

I am not sure if you want to enroll in a class during the 2nd six weeks, we begin school at the end of July or the first week of August and that might mess you up right before finals during the 2nd six week summer session. I am enrolled in govt I for the mini mester and govt II for the 1st summer session.

I'm finishing up nursing 2 now but I have to re-take Micro (I had unexpected surgery at the end of the semester in Micro last year and missed the last exam and the final) and I'm taking it at Cy-Fair this summer.Did your professors last name rhyme with "hair"? ;) I heard he was fantastic, so I'm hoping that info is correct.

As a mother who has raised 3 children I say spend the summer with your children and enjoy it before the insane schedule of Nursing 1 begins. You will not look back and say, "oh I wish I would have gone to school that summer" I promise you. Enjoy your little ones (or big;) while you can.:hug:

I am having the same issue! I am going to take Micro the first 6 weeks of summer and should take Pharm the second but I would hate to go all summer before the program starts. Tomball goes all summer while some schools have the summer off. I really want to take a family vacation while we can before the madness. :) At the same time I dont want to take pharm the first semester of nursing and add on more to the already intense studying. :/ Not sure what to do but leaning towards going to Florida!
