  1. Career Choices After L&D Specialty

    Hello everyone! I'm a new BSN grad here and will be starting a position as an L&D Nurse in a few weeks (Yay!). I'm very excited as this has always been the field I wanted to specialize in and I'm still in disbelief that I was able to get a reside...
  2. Parkland Nurse Residency

    L&D is opening applications for Feb 2020 on Monday in case anyone is interested
  3. TWU Spring 2019 Nursing Applicants

    Good luck everyone! I was accepted back in Spring 2018 and now on my last semester and getting ready to graduate this upcoming December! You guys will love it, just take advantage of all your opportunities and believe in yourself. If nursing is what ...
  4. Parkland Nurse Residency

    Has anyone heard anything back from Parkland? Like regarding interviews or anything at all. Someone told me they take a while to reach back, but then someone else on this thread said they were doing interviews in September. They've been pretty silent...
  5. TWU Spring 2019 Nursing Applicants

    Dallas! :)
  6. TWU Spring 2019 Nursing Applicants

    Good luck to everyone applying! I applied for Spring 2018 and was in your same shoes a year ago. I'm now almost done with my J2 semester at TWU. As a transfer student, I just had my GPA and TEAS score to rely on so I definitely know how stressful the...
  7. TWU Fall 2018 Nursing Applicants

    It depends on whether you would have taken patho prior to starting classes, but I'd say tuition should be about $4,500-$5,200 and the extra expenses (including books, scrubs/patches, stethoscope, immunization/titers, background check/drug test/BON ch...
  8. TWU Fall 2018 Nursing Applicants

    You covered most of it! Other than tuition, the books were the priciest. I spent almost $400 on books for just one class. You'll also need a stethoscope, that was about $100, patches/name tags which you'll order during orientation, and for the immuni...
  9. TWU Fall 2018 Nursing Applicants

    I got into the traditional program for this Spring 2018 (weekend/evening program acceptance is only during Fall semester). I would honestly say that if you have anything above 53 points you're good to go! That would be what I consider a "safe range"....
  10. TWU Fall 2018 Nursing Applicants

    I think it was like around 49.4 (or around that number)? 4.0 GPA and 86.6 on the Teas.
  11. TWU Fall 2018 Nursing Applicants

    Good luck to everyone that's applying! :) I'm starting nursing school tomorrow at the Dallas campus so it wasn't too long ago that I was in your same shoes. I transferred in with no bumps and only had my Teas score and GPA to help me out. So if you'r...
  12. TWU Spring 2018

    Can someone also let me in the FB group My name is Angely D.
  13. TWU Spring 2018

    Thank you! I didn't think i'd hear anything back so when I got that email today I was so surprised/happy/confused. You should call the Denton nursing program to see if they can update you on what spot you're at now, good luck! :)
  14. TWU Spring 2018

    Hey y'all, just to update you in case you're still on the waitlist. I just got an email saying I got accepted. I was #5 on the waitlist for Dallas. :)
  15. TWU Spring 2018

    I have 49.4 points. Does anyone know usually how many people get called back from the waitlist?
  16. TWU Spring 2018

    Congrats to everyone who got in! I just found out i'm #5 on the waitlisted list for Dallas. Hoping for the best, but is there anyone that's planning on declining their Dallas acceptance? It would be really helpful to let us people on the waitlist kn...
  17. TWU Spring 2018

    I feel like I just got stood up LOL. Well, I guess i'll see y'all again on Monday @ 4:30pm
  18. TWU Spring 2018

    I'm like 300% we're the most impatient application cycle they've had yet. Look at the number of comments and views compared to the other forums around this same time LOL (I'm pretty sure like 50k of the views are me alone though from how many times i...
  19. TWU Spring 2018

    I purposely took a nap at 4pm to hopefully wake up after 5pm and avoid this stress.. and here I am awake at 4:47pm realizing that my body hates itself.
  20. TWU Spring 2018

    They send out acceptance, rejection, and waitlisted emails all at the same time. I remember seeing someone comment they received theirs at "4:59pm" so I'm going to wait until then and once 5 hits probably cry if there's still nothing LOL.
  21. TWU Spring 2018

    Yeah, no way I could last another week. I've been over here googling "Is it possible to sleep through a whole weekend" LOL. I don't know who that one person is, but they're not my favorite person ever right now!
  22. TWU Spring 2018

    Yeah he asked "so if we don't hear by tomorrow then will we hear by Monday?" and she was like "Maybeee, I'm not sure". I'm just hoping they don't make us wait another week just because they want them out on a Friday -.-
  23. TWU Spring 2018

    So, my friend spoke to Ms. Cole earlier over the phone about acceptance letters and she said they were still waiting on ONE person to reply. So if they reply soon then we should get them tomorrow, if not then she said she doesn't know about Monday (...
  24. TWU Spring 2018

    Why can't they just give them a call? Just thinking about having to wait an additional weekend because of two people is so irritating. Also, does anyone know if the amount of applicants for Spring 2018 was larger or smaller than the Fall 2017?
  25. TWU Spring 2018

    I just called the Denton nursing # to ask about when we'll be hearing back about acceptances and someone told me probably not until mid October. I'm really hoping they're wrong and we hear back this Friday because I have 0 patience left and in 2 week...
