Hey guys! This message is for any students who are waiting to get into Nursing/ Psych Nursing. I commented on this post four years ago. I have just completed the BSN program at Douglas College and came across this. I just want to send motivation and let everyone that if you be patient and workhard, it can be done. It took me 1.5 years of waiting to get into the BSN. At one point I gave up, and said hey I'll do pysch nursing instead... but somehow... I ended up getting a BSN offer. Keep fighting and trust your process.

LOL ummm not sure how well received your message will be in this thread as all of us fall 2017 folks are just graduating with our BSPNs and quite passionate about our new field of psych nursing which you apparently consider "giving up"...way to add to the stigma that psych nurses are second class nurses

Hey CONGRATS on graduating. I am happy for you. Clearly you misinterpreted my message! That was never my intent. Both are equally challenging and rewarding programs. I just wanted to send a positive message for future students or waitlisted students like me a long time ago, who felt hopeless. I hope you have a positive day and continue to work hard in a challenging profession.
