I just graduated today!!!! Had my party and will have another one in a bit. I am so excited and it's been a tumultuous journey but it's all worth it. I take my NCLEX next Saturday and start my job in the CVICU January! Anyone else graduating this December? Feel free to ask for nursing school advice if not :)

Congrats on graduating and especially the job. I'd love to work in the ICU upon graduation.

Congratulations! I'm getting pinned in 3 days and I am so excited to finally be here. How did you get your ATT so quickly? It's sounding like my class will not be able to test until late January or early February due to the grade submission deadline being the very last day of the semester (the school won't release transcripts until after the deadline, which happens to be next Monday) and the holidays. It's making me feel antsy.

I got my ATT November 25th of this year. My school allows for early release of ATT if you at least a b in critical care class, at least 97% on both ati predictor exams (you take them twice: once at beginning of semester and one in November), at least a level 2 on medical-surgical 2 ati...and something else, I forgot. That's how I am able to take NCLEX next week; you can take it as early as first week of December but I didn't want to risk it. The rest of the people in my class, whom did not qualify for early release, will have to wait a few weeks after graduation for ATT. Have fun with pinning!!!!!!

Congrats! I graduated too! I wish we could get the ATT letter released early. They made it sound like they don't process any till the college reopens in January. I don't have to do VATI thankfully because if you get less than 97% predicted on the final ATI predictor, you have to get a green light from VATI. I had a 99% and took it Monday so I would have opened they started my application last week on the 9th, but that's doubtful. The records office is supposedly the one that sends the forms and we had a bunch of kids at graduation so they are probably tied up with diplomas.

Oh and the final grades aren't "due" till Dec. 18 so that will probably hold up the processing.

Just took my nclex this morning. I only had 75 questions, so either I completely passed or completely failed. Yikes!! I got the good pop up so far, but I am not sure if I checked too early; I checked about 1 hr after completing my test. AHHHHHH! So nervous right now. I 'll check for my name on the state nursing board later today and tomorrow x_x. Congrats to all the other new grads and good luck on your nclex!!!
