City of Chicago College - Truman Nursing Program 2013 Applicants

U.S.A. Illinois

Published

Hi Everyone,

I'm starting this article for all of the City of Chicago nurse applicants for 2013. I'll first start with a little about why I'm choosing Truman vs Daley or Malclom x and I'll also add some pertinent information that I think would be useful for everyone.

So.....

From what' I've learned, after you complete all the pre-req's

Math

Bio

Chem

English

you can apply. In my case, I've finished all of these so I am continuing on to Bio 226 & 227 prior to applying to the program, which will help me out in the long run.

The application opens around 10/10/2012, and shortly after the TEAS exam registration will open to take on-campus at Truman.

I wonder how strict they are for those who accepted? Does anyone know if your TEAS score has a big impact on their decision?

How much is are the fees for your criminal background check, immunizations, and TEAS exam?

I got the email too... Finally

Yea i got in too, confirmed my placement twice as well and haven't gotten any response as of yet.... I wonder when they will be finish sending out the confirmation emails back to the students?

I am guessing they are only confirming Truman students. I got accepted to Daley and I called this morning and was told they are not sending out confirmations. We are to expect a email with the details of the program and requirements in about two weeks. If you dont receive an email within that timeframe, call the school.

Yea I just got off the phone with them now, they told me I should be hearing something from them in about a week since they are doing graduations this week. But they did tell me that I was confirmed so whew!:) that takes a load off of my shoulders... Guess I'll just have to be patient and see the rest ya know! :-)

Do we just buy the drug test ourselves or is this done during the physical exam?? and where do we submit these Physicals!!??!! lol....By envelope to the district??? Or during orientation??? I swear, I know they are disorganized, anytime they tell you to keep looking at your e-mail frequently esp. for orientation dates..my gosh..

You need to go to an occupational health clinic to request a drug screen. It is not included in the physical. Make sure you let them know...where ever you decided to go that you need a 10 panel test!!! No other drug test will be accepted.
