Germanna Program students??

I did not goto the GCC Nursing program but choose CTS instead. CTS requires less pre-requisites but costs 3x as much. CTS graduates in 15 months so you can make the money back that you spent. Good luck

I was denied the RN program due to my GPA. I had all the pre-req's done, so I'm in the LPN program and I am doing the bridge from LPN-RN and pretty much gonna be a 2nd year RN student just as I would have been if I was accepted in the beginning. I don't recommend CTS, because of its expense...but mainly because you have to cram so much into 15 months. I want to be sure I am going to confident enough with my knowledge of nursing.

and your a student at Germanna, right? just cause you brought up CTS, wanted to make sure. if it weren't for your grades would you have been accepted into the RN program though? their website just makes it sound so competitive, & i'd hate to sit on a waiting list...

I think all the programs are competitive. Very competative. Good luck I am sure yo uwill make the right decision.

jennifer, when will CTS's first class graduate? id like to know their NCLEX pass rate before i consider them. i think if after i take my pre-req's at germanna & apply to their RN program, if i dont get in right away i may transfer to CTS. i'm just hesitant on CTS because they are so new & not NLNAC-accredited & scared this might effect going back to school for my BSN later on.

I was scared at first but I have no doubts now. The first class is set to graduate in May. I know they are going to persue accredidations but can not do so until the first class has graduated.

Good Luck.

From wht my drug dosage teacher told me while I was waiting to hear if I got in or not, Germanna does not have a wait list. Either you get in or you don't. Piedmont in Charlottesville does, but I don't know about any others.

Best of luck :)

Thanks USMC, that's good news! I am starting my classes at Germanna this summer...taking drug dosage, my english, and dev. psychology. I took the TEAS for the first time in March and ranked in the 90th percentile, so I hope it's all smooth sailing with my pre-reqs until next spring! Did you get in @ Germanna??

Hi all. I am already a nursing student in New Jersey and might be making a quick move to Va.

So could someone tell me what "CTS" stands for? Thanks so much.

I got accepted in GCC RN program. Going to start in summer 2011.

Good luck, perla! I'll be graduating May 2012 from the program....it goes by fast!

Congrats! I will also be starting in Summer 2011 at GCC for lpn -rn :)
