  1. If I leave acute care, can I come back?

    Hi Nurse Beth, I thank you for reply to my question. An update for you: I stayed in acute care and, although it's not free of challenges, I love it! I also changed specialties.
  2. FGCU Nursing Fall 2013 Applicants!

    I am gonna wear something simple. I usually wear a lot of v-necks and jeans/shorts or workout clothes if I'm headed to the gym at some point. Probably some flats or sandles. How about you?

    I also would like to join a study group. I have never been in one before so it will be a new experience.
  4. FGCU Nursing Fall 2013 Applicants!

    I just bought the bundles. I went ahead and purchased them because they are "custom" (this is what I was told at my old school) and it would probably take forever to look up all of the parts. The prices are steep! Spent more on the two bundles at the...
  5. Who has volunteered?

  9. Attitude and teaching style of USF's nursing programs?

    I was only a pre-nursing student there, but I can tell you that the faculty members are so nice and caring! I was able to attend a meeting with a club where some of the faculty were present and they were very kind and encouraging. Time and time again...
  10. iMac or MacBook!

  11. Anyone else depressed over teas score?

    Just a piece of advice for if you decide to take the TEAS: relax a little. Honestly, I'm not a "fly by the seat of my pants" kind of person, but for this test, I had very little time to study due to school related reasons and because I scheduled the ...

    I'm really excited too. I have heard that your classmates/clinical groups become family to you, and I am excited for that aspect of school. Plus, I also know no one, so I obviously would likes to make some good friends. I will be commuting from about...

    I had the same experience. Hopefully they update it if we do have a textbook for that class.

    What are you guys wearing to orientation? I know some programs require you to dress up, but we did not receive a dress code. I was thinking something sort of dressy-casual.
