Hoping & Praying I Get In!!!

[RN2BFawnie]

Hi Everyone,

This is my first post. Glad to join to community! I have recently applied to 4 schools: Trident Tech, Midlands Tech, Central Carolina Tech, and Florence-Darlington. Do any of you have any experience with or know anything about how hard it is to get in or how long you'd have to wait?

From what I understand, Trident and Midlands will accept me based on the fact that I have my Bachelors (could be wrong). It is a difficult for me to see an advisor as I currently reside in Florida (most of my fam is in SC).

Unfortunately I, like a few other people I've seen on this board screwed up/had personal circumstances while working on my bachelors which affected my GPA (overall 2.9; Nursing 2.76). I have since completed a master's in Health Services Administation finishing with a 3.8 gpa. Can anyone give any advice on the chances of me getting in to any schools. I am willing to relocate ANYWHERE.

I don't know about how hard it is to get in to all of those schools, etc, but many of the people I work with went through Florence Darlington and I have not heard anything bad about it thus far. I'm hoping to get into their LPN-RN transition program next year, once I finish my LPN.

If you go to their website, its pretty specific as to the requirements. I would imagine that your recent GPA increase would weigh heavily in your favor.

[color=sandybrown]i currently attend trident tech and its not that hard to get in. its just a long waiting list. but with our program, getting in isnt the problem. staying in is the problem. the program is very stressful and tough. i must say, that when your done. you would feel like you have accomplished something. i graduate in december and cant wait to be down. i must say, when i took the nclex-pn, i was pleased to see that i found it easier than most of their tests. which means that even though they have a tough program, you learn exactly what you need to and your are confident while taking the exam. good luck to you!!!

I don't think it's hard to get into Trident Tech. They accept a ton of people, the main problem is the super long wait list. I got in, but decided to go to MUSC instead. You should try for MUSC! I graduated from there last May.
