Hello to all the future Applicants for the January 17' nursing program. I know it's really early and August admission process hasn't been completed yet but I couldn't help my self. I'm so anxious to get in the program it took me a long time to get to this point. I have completed all the pre reqs that have an affect on your gpa and I have a 3.0. I recently just passed the Hesi for the second try with a 76% in anatomy, 92% in math and 80% in the other 3 sections. I'm in MGF1106 right now grades will post early Aug. so I'm going to turn in the Application right after that. I hope this forum can be used for all us to get through this waiting process together.
I'm anxious and nervous because I want to start putting things into play or at least figure things out as far as work. I'm a mother of two and a wife so this will be a huge sacrifice for 18mo and I want to make sure I'm well prepared
I am in the exact same situation. I am married, I have 2 boys in high school and I work full time. On top of that I'm a planner. I live by a calendar. I would like to start planning as well.
I have a few friends that are in different nursing programs and I've heard the same from all of them. They say it's best to try and sacrifice the first two semesters because they are tough. I've been told to try not to work because we will literally not have time for anything they told me that by the third semester you're okay and it'll be easier to work around your schedule. I know it's tough especially for those that have kids and all and I can only imagine the frustration of wanting to find out so you can plan ahead. Trust me I am dying to know if I got in or not too ! lol
I know they say it's not recommended but is anyone going to work while in the program?
I would probably die if I had to work while in the program. I'm still trying to figure out how I'm going to do this with 4 kids. Fortunately my husbands income will be enough to keep us going while I'm in school. I'm still going to look into scholarships tho.
