Accepted into CCC Nursing Program: Truman College

U.S.A. Illinois

Published

Hi all! I've started this thread for those of us who have gotten the good news and have been accepted to start the nursing program at Truman College in Fall 2012!

If you are still waiting to hear, I would suggest visiting the other thread I started for some helpful information, tips, and support!

Here's what I know so far:

  • There WILL be clinicals in the first semester (6 hours)
  • The classes will be scheduled via a lottery system
  • We should be receiving a letter from Dr. Gurney in the near future that details what our next steps should be!

Please add to this thread if you have any more information or just want to say hi!

I'm looking forward to getting to know you guys and having classes together shortly!

Congrats everyone! Can't wait to start fall semester! Also fire department does a great job with CPR classes, though I am pretty sure it is not free.

Hello there,

they have CPR class on May 4th at Truman as well. I just registered for it :).

Hi everyone! Congrats to everyone who has been accepted recently! Woohoo!

I just looked up some CPR classes and found this more reasonably priced one:

CPR Classes - Fire | City of Evanston $30

I registered for the class at the end of May since I want to see the email first to ascertain the specific requirements before paying for the wrong one! I assumed we need to take the one geared for Professionals rather than the Layperson class. At other places, the professional class is $15 more but here it seems to be the same price!

Can't wait for that email!

I just signed up for the Evanston one at the end of May also.

Thanks for the info on it Kathryn!

I received my acceptance email yesterday afternoon to Truman. I thought I was for sure not accepted. So crazy!

I registered for the end of May CPR class in Evanston. Katja508, thanks for the tip. I will wait for that May 14 email, however.

Congratulation, Anna!! What a great surprise for you! I will see you guys in about a month to learn some CPR! Woohoo!

Is it true Chicago hospitals will hire only nurses with a BSN? I heard they will start in 2014...

I have not.

Hello everyone! I know I am late, but I just found this forum. I was accepted a while back and I will be looking forward to joining you guys at Truman for the fall. As far as CPR, I just registered at MXC for May 19th, 9:30a-2:30p. It was $45.00.

And Bethany1975, I received an updated email saying what people mentioned above that more info will be emailed on May 14. I guess that is our confirmation? Did you receive that email?

No, Endless_STi, I did not receive that email. That is what I'm a little worried about. I definately will give a call today.

I'm looking forward to meeting everyone in the fall also.
