Texas Tech BSN 2 Fall 2013

U.S.A. Texas

Published

I am applying for Texas Tech's accelerated BSN program. So I wanted to start a thread for all Fall2013 hopefuls. I think I am going to apply to both Austin and the other location that is not El Paso(I can't think of the name)

Well I lived in austin for 7 years and then moved to Denver with my fiance for a year and a half before moving back to TX. I was a student the whole time I was in Denver, getting prereqs for my BSN so I'm not sure if I will be entirely considered out of state or not. I think i have to live in TX for 1 year though and I moved back in Jan. Either way, I will make it happen because I am dying to get into this program...I want to continue for my NP with Tech after my BSN. Yes, I think it starts the 20th or 21st. I believe our clinical schedule will be determined by our instructor's work schedule (if I understood Kayla correctly - I asked her a long time ago how that worked). It could be any time, any shifts! Do they tell us if there anything we can do before school starts to start preparing for the semester? I bet we will hit the ground running

Another thing I forgot to mention before was that we will need a smart phone or any other pocket size mobile device. Tablets are not acceptable.

What are other pocket sized mobile devices? Not sure that I know....

iPhone?

Also, did they tell you when clinicals start by any chance?

LOL I forgot about that one.... No thanks... :no:

Did anyone already get there fingerprints done and criminal background check?

Did you receive the CBC e-mail before or after your interview? Can you list some of the questions that were asked during interview?

I got my CBC email last Wednesday. I checked with them about not being able to get this done 3 days after getting it, but would get it done Monday. So I have my appointment then.

In regards to the questions....

I was asked why nursing? the typical question.

I was also asked why I chose Amarillo and not Abilene since I am from DFW.

I was asked if I thought moving and being in a new city was stressful or something like that....

And they sorta asked, but answered it themselves.... About my computer proficiency and what I would rate it from 1 to 10, but since I had in the past done bilingual IT helpdesk for a medical labratory the one lady said--10 right... and I said yes.

All the questions were pretty basic....

Hope that helped....

SilverLove have you heard anything...I'm anxious
