Pierce Wa Nursing Program

Published

Hi everyone! We will soon find out if we got an interview to the Pierce Nursing Program for Winter Admission. I created this forum to keep everyone up with the status of my application too! Post when you find out if you've got an interview, or post with your info (gpa, Kaplan score, etc.)

Was just about to say that! Bummed that it isn't continuous.... And excludes the summers

For sure. I wish we could at least start spring, then have summer off... when I read the title, then the email, I wanted to respond "that's NOT Good news" :yawn:

Hahaha that makes two of us. I'm glad we know for sure but I feel like we've been working on it for so long and now we have to wait even longer!

I need to figure out what else I need for my BSN that way I can hopefully just transfer after we graduate.

I took all my classes for my ASN/DTA to directly transfer to UW Tacoma. I'm ready to roll once I graduate Pierce with my ADN. Today's news was unfortunate. I purposefully applied to Pierce because I liked that they continued on through Summer quarter. I took all my pre-req's straight through Summer quarter at Pierce as well because I wanted to finish in a timely manner. I prefer fast track courses. Did the same with earning my CNA certificate years ago. Attended a three week course, versus a three month one.

I was thinking about making a Pierce College 2017 Facebook page for our cohort, now that we know our start and finish date. It's a great way for us all to communicate with one another. I'm not sure if it's too soon, but am willing to make the page whenever everyone is ready.

even though i don't have a facebook account, i think that is a good idea and not too soon. Especially since we will be meeting everyone on Wed, you can tell them about it then.

Working on making a Facebook page for our cohort. I don't want it attached to my personal page so I need to do a little more research on making that happen. 'Pierce College Class Of 2017 Nursing Cohort' will likely be the name of the closed group page.

Okay, I figured it out. It's a private group page only for our cohort on Facebook. Yay!

I got another email from the new director of nursing. I think we all got one with her asking if we all got her letter yet and if our addresses were correct. I replied that I received mine yesterday and that my address is correct. She wrote back asking if I was coming next Wednesday to the meet and greet. She also asked if I had any questions for her or Stania. I have yet to reply. Are you folks going to attend?
