   Actually, the website says they're still accepting apps for Fall 2011!

2. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

   StephanieNicole replied to Meraki's topic in Stress 101

   I was diagnosed with CFS a couple years ago. I wasn't happy about it, considering there can't be a cure without a cause! I've always been convinced my symptoms are hormone related, but I had nowhere to turn, so I basically gave up hope. But a few m...

3. Twu weekend nursing program spring 2011

   StephanieNicole replied to Lev_Lady's topic in Texas

   I'm super bummed that they discontinued the Fast Track program...I was really counting on applying to that particular one. I guess now I'll be going to traditional route! :)

4. Point system Lonestar Cy-Fair

   StephanieNicole replied to Ang_1's topic in Texas

   Hey! The way I figure it, your score should work like this: Course Completion: 4 pts GPA (A&P II, English I, Gen Psych): 4 pts HESI: x/25 ------------ 4 + 4 + (x/25) >or= 11.4 Meaning, all you really need is a minimum of an 85% on the reading ...

5. Midwestern State University

   StephanieNicole replied to ser2011's topic in Texas

   Hey MSU acceptees! Congrats! Out of curiosity, how many points did you have? I'm trying to figure out if I should move up to MSU and finish my co/prereqs in the Spring to get those extra .5 points (plus the co-req points), or if I should just sit hap...

6. Fall 2010 Lonestar ADN Hopefuls

   StephanieNicole replied to StephanieNicole's topic in Texas

   AZ2b - The first three are the prereqs, and yes, the others earn you extra points, but the program is so competitive, you aren't likely to get in without the extra points. There's just no way to get in with less than 11 pts (unless you get lucky on ...

   StephanieNicole replied to StephanieNicole's topic in Texas

   Amanda - Sounds like a plan to me! I know what you mean about just taking it one step at a time...I started taking my nursing prereqs 5 years ago, but I got off track and ended up with my useless degree in Psychology. Now I'm back again trying to f...

   Cassie - Yep, you have to take the Hesi, but it's just the Math and Reading Comp sections. You just have to pass the math with at least a 70, and the Reading section is used in your ranking score.

9. Hospital-based Nursing Program

   StephanieNicole replied to skinnedknee's topic in Texas

   Huntsville Memorial Hospital has an LVN program that starts accepting applications in March and starts classes at the end of December. There aren't any prereqs to get in, other than some sort of entrance exame. I know absolutely nothing else about th...

10. Fall 2010 Lonestar ADN Hopefuls

    StephanieNicole replied to StephanieNicole's topic in Texas

    Cassie - A&P I, English I, and Intro to Psych are the prereqs. Sociology, Development Psych, Micro, Speech, A&P II, and Kinesiology are the co-requisites who's GPA has to be at least a 2.75 to get it, and Pharmacology is the other coreq, but ...

11. Fall 2010 Lonestar ADN Hopefuls

    StephanieNicole replied to StephanieNicole's topic in Texas

    Amanda - Yeah, it's pretty competitive, so losing points for not having all the prereqs completed is really iffy. The cut-off for the larger schools is usually around 11.1 points, so you'd really have to have a 4.0 in the three classes and get a perf...

    Hey everybody! I just wanted to start a thread where all of us who are beginning the stressful process of worrying over Lonestar admissions can give each other some support! I'm planning on applying to LSC-Montgomery - retaking Psych 2301 in a Secon...
