Charity SON Fall 2012

[MsLeana]

Hello Everyone!

I know I'm early but I'm super excited to begin nursing school. I was wondering if anyone else here is planning to apply to Charity for Fall 2012? Are you done with your prereqs? Taken the HESI? What's your profile score?

I have taken all of my prereqs but it has been 6 years since I took A&P II lecture/lab so I'm taking it now at Delgado. I'm taking the lecture online and I go on campus for the lab. We have only done one exercise in lab so far and I already feel like its not going to be very easy. I took the HESI on Monday and I did pretty well so I'm done with that thank God!

I calculated my profile score and if I get an A in the A&P lecture I'll have 70 points. If I get a B or C, I'll have 65 points. I'm super nervous because when I talked to the admissions lady at Charity she told me the cut off tends to be a bit higher for the Fall semester than the Spring. From reading the forum, it looks like the cut off for Spring 2012 was around a 55 so I'm worried that the cut off for Fall will be like 75!

Good luck to everyone and I hope to meet some of my future classmates!

LOL, I'll try to go to the same one. My advising appt is on 4/19 at 9 am. Are you going to the open house?? I RSVP'd to it because I didn't get to go last year. I have blonde hair and it's kind of long. Anyway, those vaccines make me nervous. I get really really sick from the Tetorifice shot. My dr wrote that I was allergic to it the last time I had to get a shot record filled out. I think we should have a meet and greet like firehorse said earlier. I don't know a single person that was accepted. A lot of my friends graduated from Charity a few yrs ago. I guess we'll make friends with people in our clinical group though too.

Anyone want to meet at maybe Chilis in Slidell on Tues evening? I usually have class, but my teacher cancelled.

Learning2care I live in Slidell. I work out of town on tue but am usually always in by 6-6:30. If that isn't too late I would love to meet up. I don't know anyone who got in so it would be nice to know someone.

[Rmed4320]

I want to go to open house on the 21. Maybe I'll see you there.

[learning2care]

Ok maybe we can plan on 6:30 on Tues if anyone else wants to meet. By the mall- Chilis :)

[Phi823]

I know someone through a mutual friend that hasn't received anything yet either, and she lives in Amite.

[Rmed4320]

Ok I'll see you there! Anyone else feel free! I will probably be in black scrubs.

Wow...400 applicants and only 100 get in? I had no idea on the numbers. I didn't think they had that many applicants. I can't wait to understand the process of nursing school. I was under the impression that we all moved together as a class, but a friend of mind told me that isn't so. I am getting more excited as the days pass...
