Dismissal From Nursing Program - Is all hope lost?

There is hope but it will involve complete honesty, owning what happened AND a solid plan for making certain it NEVER happens again.

OK, obviously, I won’t curse ANYONE off again for being incompetent through a email interaction. I will also allow myself to be subjected to the misgivings and intolerance of others for the rest of my life while I bite my tongue and never defend myself. But besides owning all that, what else can I do besides nursing school with the nursing prerequisites I have now?

I'm wondering if your attitude didn't have a hand in your getting dismissed as well. MMJ gave a thoughtful response. Your response to her makes me wonder

I completely agree. She gave wonderful insight as a experienced individual with a ton of knowledge in the matter. It’s not everyday that one can receive this type of spiritual guidance to own up to one’s mistakes. I, on the other hand, was expecting someone who may have more of a technical response and less of a spiritual one. Thank you! 

I wouldn't volunteer it. Nursing is a small world. Be nice and fair next time. Nothing to be ashamed of being truthful and honest but being an a$$.

Hi ThursdayNight! Thank you for your insight. I fully agree with this comment. I always try to be kind, but sometimes it is difficult if there is no room for more than one ego in any given room. Like I always say, the only ego allowed in a room is the one in charge.

I don’t think the fact that I was dismissed shows up on transcripts, but it does seem to be a top questions when one is trying to transfer into a new nursing program after already being accepted and attending one recently. 

So you are being asked, it may show up on transcripts and most programs ask about all classes taken at all universities/classes. I remember one student in my health assessment class using a different textbook. When asked why she said in the class that it was the book used at a different program. She had not given this information on application which is required & had not submitted transcripts from that college. Due to falsifying info she was dismissed from program.

Oh, I see.. I consider that negligence on the part of the nursing program that dismissed her for not requesting proper documentation prior to admittance. Following that by ruining her life by dismissing her shortly there after.

Nope the fault was the student’s for failing to submit all transcripts as requested on the application to the nursing program.  The consequences that followed were hers alone. Also requirements listed in student handbook

Well, for technical, if you transfer classes (prereqs) and they are the same school as you were accepted into the nursing program, it will show that you started the program. That will leave you open for questioning. At least how it works at the area nursing schools

If they ask about the reasons for your dismissal, you should tell the truth. I didn't experience it. I let the other one go and focus on this one next to my home.

This is true. She should have done that outright. But in the present-day or future as you might call it, they usually know what schools you’ve attended in the past. It sounds like they were desperate for money and wanted to admit her for some dough.
