Hi everyone,
If I'm not mistaken, it looks as though no thread has been started for Chico's Fall 2016 BSN nursing program. I recently submitted my application and currently playing the waiting game. It'd be nice to hear from fellow applicants. Good luck to you all!
Congrats everyone who's made it into the nursing program! I know you've all worked very hard to get to this point in your lives! As a second semester nursing student, I was surprised to hear how competitive this term was :/ In response to @yesucan, yes orientation day is on the first day of school. The nursing staff will go over the expectations and major assignments and projects over the course of the semester. Day 1 can seem really overwhelming. Just make sure to buy a really good planner lol Also, don't forget to bring your blue orientation folders!
As you approach the end of your first semester you should start thinking about work experience. If you are willing to take the CNA or LVN exam my company will pay for it and hire you part time while you work on your degree. And if you ask you can probably get your RN certifications paid for by us as well. Graduate with a year or more of work experience under your belt

CONGRATS TO everyone who got in so far! I am hoping to apply to chico as a 2nd degree student. That point system is a little discouraging, but I'm still going to try. .i don't think I'll be near 90, but maybe it'll be a less competitive cohort lol. ... any who congrats guys!!
