Graduating from 'Pre-Nursing' Student Forum!

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Published

I just wanted to share with everyone (as it is tradition), that I have finally been accepted to Nursing School. I am a career changer and I've always wanted to be in the medical field, and now I'm officially on my way. I got into an Accelerated BSN program for the Spring semester. Even though starting January, I'll be an official NS (no more pre-), I promise to visit this forum and give some advice to the next generation of pre-nursing students.

I can't wait to see a lot more of you guys/gals over in the 'Nursing Student' forum. Nice to start my weekend with a big smile. :)

Congrats! Im starting LPN school in January. I was also thinking about how I am actually giong to be able to post in the Student Nurse forum! Im no longer in pre-nursing, yeah!

Good luck to you! I know the waiting is horrible.

But as you mention about financial aid rewards, it made think if I should be applying for that stuff now? scholarships? I guess I thought I'd have to wait until I get close to my start which is June 2011. Should I be doing that stuff now?

I know some schools require you to complete the 2010-2011 FAFSA if a program is starting in June 2011 because the FAFSA cycle covers July 1 to June 30 annually. And then you would complete the 2011-2012 form for the following school terms. I would (1) check with your intended school's financial aid office and (2) complete this year's FAFSA just in case, as it is free and can't really hurt to have it in.
