Lonestar 2014 Fall Hopefuls!

[SparklesMedic]

Ok I know it's very early starting this but I am so excited I couldn't help it! Application period doesn't even start until January! My journey has been a long one and I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel so I am sharing a little of that experience here and I would love to hear from others as well.

I just received my clearance letter from the BON so I am clear to apply in January for North Harris and Montgomery ADN programs, unfortunately I missed Kingwood. At this point I have an 11.1 and I'm about to retake the HESI so we shall see what is in store for me. I'm done with all my pre-reqs for my BSN and I'm so ready to start the next phase of my education and get on with more taking care of people! It's been 25 years since I decided I wanted to be a nurse. Twenty years of raising my kids, taking care of soldiers' families and single soldiers and eight years of riding in an ambulance later, I'm ready to follow my dream! Watch me go!

Amberly have you created your certified background profile. I keep calling Cy-fair to ask if they are going to change the description that states "LVN summer 2014" under clinical requirements, but no answer.

Once you have can you let me know if that's the case with you please.

I really wish Montgomery would get their stuff together! The sooner they let me know the sooner I can give up my lvn spot. I'm ready to start and meet everyone else! :)

Is anyone else looking into buying nursing shoes? Danskos to be exact. I don't own a good pair of tennis shoes (i know sad lol) also I'm debating on a backpack or something rolling. Just something to think about. With the lvn program there are sooo many textbooks so I imagine it will be the same with the rn program if not more.
