Calling any Watts School of Nursing Students!!!

Published

Hi all,

I have posted a few times about my worries on getting into a nursing program and just wanted to share that I got accepted to Watts School of Nursing in Durham. I am so excited and I was wondering if any Watts students (or from other programs) had any advice on how they have gone about financing their education. I never had to deal with financial aid when I got my undergrad a few years ago and Watts is pretty pricey, (about $30,000). I plan to do the tuition reimbursement program with Duke when I graduate but I'm worried about what to do right now. Any advice on financial aid or private loan experiences would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!!!:heartbeat

Thank you so much Resse. I can't pm or message right now. Will you be willing to speak to me through facebook or myspace?

How do I PM someone? I'm trying to get in touch with current Watts or MOC students. I'll be starting Mt Olive in January and have some questions.

Thanks

I'd like to find them on facebook. I'd also like to know what to expect when I do start Watts in June as far as class times. I'm going to try to stay on at my current job part time for a few hours after class and wondered what is the normal class times. I know they also break for a while in summer and I can't remember when that was. I can't PM now, I just found that out, I don't have enough posts. It would be great to talk to some others who are in the classes now or will be there when I am. Thanks

W2, yes, I'm in Cohort9.

Pointers? On the entrance exam?

Man, that seems like a lifetime ago.

Speed and accuracy is the key.

Obviously the math.

The spatial stuff you can find online somewhere, I think Cape Fear CC has an online test that is similar for that.

And find a technique to work the reading comprehension quickly and well.

From what I understand the reading section is the area most have to retake.

Good luck!

Hello everyone:

I have a question to all who are about to start the program or any that has already started the program. Please anyone with any information or insight on this please help. I was wondering what step are being taken to supplement your income while you are in school after the mount olive portion. I'm a planner and that's part of my concern. Please help. If its too personal to post here. Please send me an email through my profile page, send me a private message (PM) or find me on facebook same email address.
