  1. St. Davids RN Residency February 2020

    I saw this thread regarding the St. David's new grad program. My family is relocating from California to Austin next spr/summer and I graduate from nursing school next month, taking the NCLEX late Feb/early March. We were just in Austin two weeks ago...
  2. Seton Austin residency summer 2019 cohort

    I'm interested in applying to Seton's new grad residency program. I'm planning to relocate from California and am graduating from nursing school with my BSN this December, taking my NCLEX in Feb 2020 and then applying for a Texas license. Can anyone ...
  3. I'm a BSN nursing student in the California Bay Area (graduating Dec 2019) and interested in relocating to Austin. I wanted to find out more about the Seton RN residency program. How often do they start new cohorts? When do they hold open house sess...
  4. Interested in Seton Residency - From Cali to Austin

    Thank you for your input on the different hospital and what to expect at open house. My husband and I visited Austin last month and toured downtown and all around the city, looking at the different neighborhoods of north and west Austin, looking at d...
  5. Interested in Seton Residency - From Cali to Austin

    nrsng2019 Thank you for all the advice and input. Good to know that it's really competitive, which is similar to the new grad programs here in the Bay Area, particularly Stanford. I was planning on attending an open house to get a feel for the progr...
  6. fall to CSUEB, for 2017 nursing program ??? !!

    @hollie18 - I'm taking the test this Fri and need to prepare as well and have been thinking about how to approach this test. My plan is to write a solid six paragraph essay; an intro, three paragraphs of "pro" reasons, the fifth paragraph is the "con...

    I ordered my DVC transcripts as soon as grades were posted, around June 1st. I had them sent to me directly and they finally came on Jun 14th. I hand delivered mine directly to the Hayward admissions office to make sure they were received on June 19t...

    hollie18 - It didn't take long for the castlebranch to go from pending the complete. I recall it was within two days of me uploading my updated lab report. In that respect, Castlebranch worked pretty fast and I was surprised. I thought about doing a ...

    Hollie18 - I signed up for the Aug 11th BLS class at Concord campus. Did you sign up for any of the ones offered by the EBSNA or did you go elsewhere?
  10. fall to CSUEB, for 2017 nursing program ??? !!

    Uploading the required documents for CastleBranch is a bit tedious. @MelodyTim - I went to my primary care physician and requested a physical for the form that needs to be filled-out and signed. Tell your doctor what you need done and they will help ...

    @Hollie18 - I'm planning to sign up for the CPR class set-up by the EBSNA that was mentioned in the emails they sent us.

    Anybody else on the waitlist hear from the school yet?
  13. fall to CSUEB, for 2017 nursing program ??? !!

    I know that prior students didn't have to take the WST before classes began, but I'm not sure if this is something new for our specific cohort. Regardless, the emails that were sent out today said to sign up and take it before Sept 15th. I was able t...

    Congrats MedictoBSN! I'll be at the Concord campus, too. Looking forward to meeting all of you there.

    @RickyO - I haven't tried to sign up yet. I am also getting the same message when I try to sign up. I emailed the test center a while ago and this is what they sent me: "You are currently not in a degree program yet, that is why you cannot sign up an...

    I took Pathophys from Santa Barbara City College and Pharmacology at Contra Costa College as pre-reqs for a different school I applied to, but I heard from my friend in the program who also took them, that they didn't count as CSUEB She had to retak...
  17. fall to CSUEB, for 2017 nursing program ??? !!

    Woohoo! Just got three emails from the nursing department saying I have fulfilled the Psych, Socio/Anthro, and Nutrition requirements already. So I will NOT need to enroll in Nurs 2010. But I guess this just means I'll get some other requirement out ...

    Thanks for attaching the calendar. This is helpful for planning, especially when you have kids. During the quarter system, there isn't much of a break between them. But there's more of a break once the semester system starts. It does seem that our co...

    I agree that the private school tuitions are high, especially if you can get into a public program. Even the ADN-BSN transition is worth the costs savings. CSULA has a good program as well. Would you relocate to go to school there? I only chose loca...

    Have you tried calling the Nursing Depart. for clarification? If you do, please post it. I was under the impression that there was always at least one summer you don't get off, which is what the roadmap is saying. My friend who is currently in the pr...

    @RickyO - I think you can get these tests done through the student health center at CSUEB. I'm sure more information will come out about the requirements in June. You can also go through your own doctor. I had to get all of this done for my 2nd choic...
  23. fall to CSUEB, for 2017 nursing program ??? !!

    I wanted to pass on some info regarding the health requirements that will be due by Jul 15th. If you volunteered and had to do a blood test for your volunteering (at Kaiser or John Muir), they likely have records of your immunization titers. This mea...

    The Concord campus is definitely smaller than the Hayward campus. I did hear that we may have to take a few classes at the Hayward campus, but don't hold me to that, it may be a rumor. They may be changing the program a bit now that it's moving to se...

    Sac State is a great school and they do a lot with UC Davis which enhances the program. For me, Sac is too far since I have a family and I live near Concord, otherwise I'd apply there, too. But I do like the idea of the final year being a preceptorsh...
