As long as you pass, the board of nursing website should have you as an official RN with a license number within 2-5 days depending on what day of the week you took and passed your exam. I took it on a Thursday and found out I passed on a Saturday and my name was on the website by Tuesday.

On their page at the bottom is a place that says returning job seekers. If you set up an account it’ll take you to your log in and in there you can check job applications and other positions you’ve applied for.

How did they contact you MA8675309, phone call, email, text? i keep heckling my application status and email

They are not going to judge you on your choice of clothes at orientation ( I was worried about the same thing for mine). You're going to be there for quite a few hours so I would suggest something casual but comfortable. And take a sweater because it can get really cold in the buildings!

It was like $13 but that's added to the package they sell you.

No, the Id picture for central is taken on day of orientation (another thing they charge for).. North campus lets us use our school IDs.. I don't know what they do with the passport pics.

The clinicals start on the second 8 weeks of the semester. They are 12 hours and they can be on any day of the week.

The uniforms for north are about $50 per set. You can buy as many as you want. They are different from central. There's two types of tops, one blue for class and one white for clinical. At north you can buy everything separate (stethoscope, shoes, watch) so you can look for the best price but the nursing bag must be bought through the school (the bag will be used for nursing skills)

So far pharm had been the only 16 week class, everything else has only been 8.

You'll find a way to learn content of each class as you go. If anything, I suggest getting familiar with nursing math calculations (you can google it or find videos on YouTube), knowing your math conversions, maybe try to learn your lab values and what they mean if they are high or low and review nursing school test questions on like quizlet or purchase an nclex study book like Saunders to review the material.

Yes, I was initially going to Central but got offered a spot at North. North Campus is so much closer to me so that's why I wanted to go there. Honestly I love the North Campus because of the distance of course, and the cohort is so much smaller and the teachers are awesome and it really feels like they are there to help us succeed. But I have heard great things about central as well from other students and that program has been around longer so Im sure the teachers there are great too!

Yes, second semester we had Pharm 16 weeks and med surg and mental health 8 weeks each. Working is definitely doable, just make sure to manage your time wisely :)

Yes, my Dr. did the same and castle branch did not reject it.

The first semester we were in class Monday through Thursday but the hours were different. Some days we were there until 1:30 others until 11:30. the second semester we were only in school 2 days of the week and one day for clinical. There are no evening classes, at least at north. so far for the rest of the program, from what I have seen, it'll continue to be the same of only 2 days in school and 1 day at clinical.

I think with A&P it was more about memorizing the information and taking a test asking you about a specific location or function but with the nursing program the questions are more about how much you comprehend the material and what should be done in a certain situation. The material itself isn't difficulty but it's so much info at once that it may feel overwhelming. I would definitely recommend looking at examples of nursing school tests online or check out a book at the library so that you know what kind of questions will be asked because that was certainly something to get used to for me personally.
