Hey Everyone,

Davenport University has as everyone knows changed there Associate Nursing program is to now a

BSN degree program! No problems there! I am however taking a Biostatistics class. Then I am taking a Chemistry class in the Warren Location.

As well do I need to have all my prerequisites finished to even apply in Febuary?

Does anyone know how hard the admission process is for the BSN program at Davenport?

How competitive is it? What type of GPA? Essay Style? Any tips to help out? What score does my TEAS

need to be?

How is the Davenport Nursing Program? Would your recommend it to others?

Anytips?

As well where are most of the clinical sites for the nursing program?

Thank you very much for your time, and I look forward to hearing your response.

DEEP,

Thank you so much for the time you have taken to inform all of us what to expect.

I'm a planner and like to be one step a head all the time. I had to talk to my nursing advisor today regarding my Spring/Summer schedule. They must be starting are files as you mentioned, because she said, she would note it in my file.

Thanks for the advice on items to purchase and where to get them.

What kind of bag for clinicals do you suggest to buy???

Thanks again,

Hey Everyone,

Man I have been trying to get on here, however I have been bogged with work and classes!

Well I recieved my letter on Monday, and I was accepted :):) :clpty: :w00t:

Such a relief, as I was really wanting to make into this program! As well the stressful anticipation

and wait for the letter, had to take at least a couple years off! After being misled by Bakers

program, I really felt Davenport gave me at least a hopeful chance!

Congratulations EVERYONE for making it in You all Truly Deserve It!

I look forward to meeting and seeing you on June 23rd!

Take Care, Persephone

[persephone162]

Look forward to meeting you in orientation!

I forgot if you plan on going to the doctor for a physical BEFORE orientation, WAIT, there is a form for medical clearance that you will get. :) Save yourself the trouble and money of paying for an office visit twice!

Something like that is best. There was a black one that was really nice but I didn't see it on the website. When the School Store comes to campus during the semester they bring them.

GL!!!!

Thanks for all your help DEEP!!! How far along are you in the program??? What does a typical schedule look like?? They mentioned in one of letter's enclosed, they recommend not working more than 16 hours a week at a job. How true is that, do you work?

Persephone, I also went to Baker and was extremely dissapointed and they were so misleading. I'm actually grateful now that I was accepted at Baker. I think getting in at Davenport is where I am supposed to be!!! Wonder if we had classes together at Baker??

AGAIN I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU ALL FOR BEING EXCEPTED INTO THE BSN PROGRAM AT DAVENPORT UNIVERSITY!!!!

As some of you already know I did not get accepted into the program neither did I get accepted in WCCCD. Both denial letters back to back was quite overwhelming but I refuse to let this stress me out. I have sent my application package out again with an attempt to get accepted in the LPN Program. At least this will open the door for me. Does anyone know what's expected in this area. The deadline for this application is May 14th. So wish me the best guys.

and again :ancong!:

[Sante2487]

hello guys i was accepted also for the program but was chosen for the traditional track, which is kind of dissapointing. i tranferred over from baker and a couple of my classes weren't equivalent. i took math but it wasn't intermediate and i need cell biology, so im wondering why cant i just take these in the summer so i can start the fast track in the fall?

[Anoetos, BSN, RN]

I am also in the second track, I am hopeful that I can take my remaining Gen Eds over next summer as well. I still have Patho and Chemistry for sciences too and am taking them over the fall and winter, then I should be pretty much caught up.

In all, I hope to be able to complete the track in 5 more semesters but really, who even knows until we get our schedules at orientation...
