It's a bit early, I know. I just wanted to start a thread for all of those looking down the road planning to apply to FSW this fall for the spring 2018 program start..
I'm planning on applying to the Charlotte campus for the Evening/Weekend (ANEW) schedule format.
What campus are you planning on applying to?
What classes are you trying to finish up before applying in Sept/Oct?
What program schedule format will you be choosing (Daytime or evening/weekend)?
Did you take the TEAS VI exam and how did you do?
I look forward to the discussion over the next few months!!
I have had a good experience with the ANEW program so far. It is a good learning for those students who don't mind reading and studying independently. It's also important to have good time managements since most of the learning is done offsite at home and students are expected to know the material when they come in for practicum or sim lab.
The ANEW program is the same length as the traditional program. They both are 4 months and run in the spring and fall semesters only. With this type of schedule, those students who haven't completed all of their prerequisites can finish them in the summer semesters, in between the nursing program semesters.
Hi! I'm hoping to get into the ANEW program at the Charlotte campus. Do you mind telling me what books you used for the first semester? Also, do you remember what hospitals you can choose from to do clinicals in?
Quick question: did you'll have to get the revised books for class? I was going to buy books from a student but he said our books had to be the revised edition
We're all in the process of exchanging our books for the revised edition, because some had it from the beginning and others had the older version. So, yes you do need the revised edition of the books.

Okay so I got a question. In your first semester did anyone add classes or did they wait till summer to take other courses?
I didn't hear of anyone adding additional classes during the semester that we had our nursing classes. Everyone waited until summer. In fact, I believe that I Started the program with the least amount of classes completed (5 out of 9). I am taking micro and human growth/development this summer and nutrition and a humanities next summer. I would advise against doing additional classes during nursing school unless you have lots of time to devote towards school.

I would not recommend taking additional classes during nursing school. You're going to have a lot on your plate and nursing school is very different then gen ed classes so you'll be adjusting to new study and learning techniques. In addition, every semester gets harder. Just focus on learning and understanding the material. Good luck!

Very well put. I spent the whole first semester wishing that I had more time to go through each section before we took the exam and moved on. I can't imagine spending valuable time working on other classes. Like Camerella said, nursing school classes are much more intense than the prerequisite/gen ed. classes.
