Expelled :(

Hello,

I was recently expelled from nursing school due to the fact that I ticked off the dean of nursing. The reasons that were given were "unprofessional behavior" despite the fact that I had a great clinical record and a 4.0 GPA. I have one semester left.

First off, for those of you in this situation, I would like to recommend Excelsior College, which will take anyone who has finished at least half an ASN program (or has an LPN). Because thier program is exam-based, the worse case is that you will have to take a bunch of exams again, but there are no lectures or clinicals. (I just could NOT sit through my OB clinical again! Or any other of them for that matter.)

But the real reason that I am writing is that I am very angry and sad about the situation. I feel that my future was spat apon by a few people who met me once and didn't give a damn about me or my possible career. I have worked in health care for some time now and my coworkers have refused to let me give up. These people, who have worked with me for years, strongly believe that I will make a wonderful, principled, and very professional nurse!

Anyway, I was hoping to hear from other people who are in this position, or who have been in the past. I have heard a lot of stories from people who were singled about and expelled for silly reasons. I would love to get some input.

This thread is from nearly 2 1/2 years ago. I'm sure the expulsion hearing is done and decided by now. The poster with all the issues as to what "looks better" hasn't even posted since December 2011.

Hmmm, I can't imagine what happened!

Expected that if something good happened to the OP, they will come back and talk about it, if it didn't go well for them, they may not care to discuss it. We can only speculate. That's why I said, "closure, closure". :confused:

Regarding the person sleeping at her OR rotation..it can be stressful as an OR nurse having a student, but many of us take one because we love our specialty, and want to share what we know. It would be a slap in the face to have a student close their eyes because theyre "bored". Unbelievable..
