Is there anyone else on here that has applied to Athens Tech's Nursing program for fall 2016? I have applied and I am supper excited! I can't wait for the letters to go out in April.
Anybody already in the program that can offer any advise? anything I should do to prepare before?

Hey!! I applied for Fall 2016 and I emailed admissions and today they said letters have been mailed!
Hey MerciNurscee!! I'm glad to see another ATC student on here!
I have been obsessively checking my mail for about a week now. I called Monday and the guy I spoke to said they had just mailed the letters, so hopefully I will be getting it today!! I am so excited I just cant wait any longer. I hope the letters contain some kind of information not just "accepted" or "not". I don't think I could stand waiting till the information session with out a shred of more details. I cant find anything online about the program except what is on the college catalogue, which is not a lot, and I found one older PDF of a handbook. it had a lot of requirements as far as dress codes and attendance but as it is older I'm not sure if all these rules still apply, but it was still interesting to read.
I read through the same material quite a few times. I will keep you posted! Good luck to you!
I got in!
Me too!!! But no extra information to ease my excitednessí ½í¸•
Congrats to you. I also thought our letters would contain more info but I was over the moon to see Congratulations...
I guess I better start writing down my questions for the orientation.

Hi! I applied for Fall 2018 with a NLN score of 122, which was the 78% percentile and a GPA of about 3.3 or 3.4.. any feedback/opinions? How's the program going?
Hi Clara!
The Nursing program is fantastic! I think you have good odds to get in. don't let people scare you saying there are hundreds of applicants. there are hundreds of applicants, but the majority don't even have their pre-reqs done they are just applying. I don't know what the average NLNs have been but I know this year graduation class and the class of 2019 has plenty of students that had C's is some science courses.
Advice:
-try to save as much money now, and try to work as little as possible once you start. if you absolutely have to work I suggest working more during first semester and over the summer break, but very little in the senior year.
-Figure out your teachers and study based on their particular lecture and testing style
