IRSC RN Class of 2017

Published

I got accepted to the Spring 2016 ADN program at IRSC. I decided to create this blog to start a support group for the IRSC RN class of 2017. I am so looking forward for the first day of class on January 11, 2016. Congratulations to all who have been accepted and of course the alternates!! Good luck and keep your fingers crossed.

So far i have attended the mandatory meeting and got my class schedule and booklist. I am currently working on meeting the requirements i.e (Physical exam and proving immunizations) to turn them in by December 11, 2015.

So far i think i am just going to do my shots again, because the titiers are way too expensive, the cheapest i have seen so far is $156 for the immunity titer package, which includes all titers (MMR, TDAP, HEP-B and VARICELLA). Let me know what y'all up to and feel free to ask questions

Thank you so much for making this thread!! I'll be applying for the Jan 2017 IRSC RN program, am already so excited! I'm going to re-take my NLN (I took it a few years ago & got a 109. My goal is nothing less than a 130 this time!)

If I may ask, what was your score?

Yeah definitely retake so that you have a better chance. I was accepted am actually in the program now. It's been quite a rollercoaster. But I'm doing great. Good luck to you

Checking back in to see if anyone else is applying for 2017? I believe deadline is September, I've giving myself 3 months to study for the NLN. I feel way more confident this time around!

I will be applying for 2017 as well! I've never taken the NLN so it will be my first time but I've attended all the review sessions and have lots of reviews to study. My hopes are high as far as getting accepted but I'm prepared that I may have to reapply for the fall program if I don't get in. I'm very eager to start the application process when it opens. Good luck to you, I hope to see you in the spring!

I just actually checked on Amazon to make sure & it still looks like the same exact review book they've had out for years & I went to a math study session tonight & he didn't make mention of a new book at all.
