Hey Ronix and briantofaz! I've been hoping someone else would say they are starting the same cohort I am! Congrats to you both Ronix, I understood it the same way briantofaz did..they need to be done or in the process of being done by the 7th.
I turned in my application the day of the deadline, April 3rd, received a call for an interview on the 6th, and had my interview that next week. Then on May 10th they sent out letters. I was accepted into the GateWay cohort for July and I'm starting next Tuesday! It all happened really quick. However, after reading through some posts I found out that some people had a longer wait for their call. Just my experience though.
I too am very excited about starting nursing school in the fall. The only thing I think and worry about is doing presentations in front of the class. I have an incredible fear of public speaking. YIKES! I even get all freaked out when doing ice breakers the first day of class. Other than that, I am SO excited to learn about disease processes and being a Nurse.
I am the same way! I start July 7th. Those of you who have started...are there a lot of presentations in front of the class? I didn't even think about the first day and ice breakers and stuff. I'm sure we'll make it through it Milwaukee! But the first few times could be interesting...
This is my first time posting on here but I think I can help with your questions
1. BNFP is not just for people who hold a bachelor's degree. However, they may have certain cohorts where they only accept people who hold a bachelors degree. I was just accepted into the July cohort at GateWay and I have no previous degrees.
2. When I attended the information session in March they said that the October 2009 cohorts will be at GateWay and Estrella.
3. I included both unofficial transcripts because my high school transcript showed that I took Chemistry, which is a required class. If all of your prereqs and coreqs were taken in college then your highschool transcript is not necessary.
