Sam Houston State - Spring 2019

[TexBSNRN20]

As I was going through looking for threads of the programs I plan to apply for I didn't see one for SHSU Spring 2019 so I decided maybe I would go ahead and start one!

I am currently finishing my associates of science and associates of humanities from Palo Alto College in San Antonio where I currently live, then will hopefully have everything in line for SHSU application when it opens up.

I do still have to take my TEAS exam which I have scheduled for June 27, I am so nervous about cutting a great score to help with my chance of admission, especially since I won't have the extra point for being a SHSU student.

I'm excited to hear from others who will be the applicant pool as well and hopefully we'll be starting our nursing journey together, good luck to everybody!!!

I received the email from IdentoGo and service says "Board of Nurse Examiners." Is this the same for yall that got it as well??

Hey y'all! I've been stalking this thread for a while and finally decided to comment lol. I got the background check email too! I'm now freaking out looking for something from Sam...but have gotten nothing..so I continue to wait..

No email here either

I will say that when I was accepted to LoneStar I received that email a week or so before decisions came out so I've already done my fingerprints, it seems like good news for those of you that got one!

Those of us who haven't gotten one, let's just hang in there! We all received them in waves over a few days, we aren't out of this yet!

And the constant check of my email starts now.... lol

I have already done my finger prints too.. I wonder if applicants have to repeat it for each school?

[studentnurseu]

Lmaooo right?! Let the OCD commence

[Erika2018]

I haven't done mine yet but I scheduled it due to another school emailing me. I'm hoping that's the reason why :/

I had spoken to the board of nursing before doing mine and they said we wouldn't have to submit additional fingerprints for each program, but now I'm paranoid I misunderstood them, lol.

I've had a bad feeling regarding my SHSU acceptance, but I'm holding out hope at least a little longer!

[Erika2018]

I wonder if they're going in alphabetical order. My last name is with a Z...

lol it just would not make sense to repeat the finger printing process. that means i would have to pay $45 for each school i applied too, to be sent to the same place lol.. I hope you heard them right.

That's exactly why I called them before I did them for the ADN program, lol. I was like I'm awaiting decisions from my choice program, will I need to do this again if I were to be accepted because I'd rather not spend the money multiple times. She said only one set of fingerprints and I *think* that we would just receive additional blue cards after being added to the new school's roster or that we could submit the blue card to each school. The blue card part is fuzzy since my main concern was not needing to do fingerprints multiple times, haha.
