Hello, How are the classes going? I'm debating between Texas Tech and TWU. Both programs are great. I live in the DFW area, so it might make sense to go to TWU. But both programs are entirely online, so I'm unsure if locality is relevant. What I...

I'm sorry to hear that. Did the committee offer the denial reasons? You should apply to other programs. I also applied for the program at Texas Woman's University. My coworkers went to UT Tyler, UT Arlington, and Walden University.

It went well. 🙂 I just received an offer for admission. I also received an admission offer from Texas Woman's University as well. Now I have to decide which program to go to. They are both good. Texas Tech is one semester shorter for the full-time tr...

Yes, you are correct. If I start in Spring 2024, I will finish in Fall 2025. 🙂

Thank you for the info. I also applied for Texas Tech. Their full time program is 49 credits with 6 semesters nonstop.

How was the interview?

Hello, How is the program going for you all? I have an interview next week for the program. I assume it's for the Spring 2024 semester. It looks like you can take classes on your own without following a specific schedule. Is that correct?

I have an interview today. 😄

Greetings, I will be going for Nurse II soon. May I get a copy of the proficiency as well? Thank you so much. [email protected]

Hello, I am a new nurse at the Dallas VA. I am about to graduate from the nurse residency program (transition to practice, TTP). I like to work at the VA because I'm a veteran. The benefits are a lot better than the private sector. As nurses, we...

So I finally got my offer letter yesterday, Friday 08/28. I will start on Monday, 08/31. Are you guys/gals starting on Monday too?

You have done the PSB review already? I haven't done that yet :) They will probably send the offer a week before the start date. Things are running slowly over there. I am working as a student nurse tech on MICU/CCU.

I applied for the Transition to Practice program and received an unofficial offer from the coordinator. Now I am waiting for the firm offer with the start date from HR. The VA takes forever with HR paperwork. Hang in there ?

I took mine on June 26th and nothing happened until I called them yesterday. After I called them, one representative said he would email to his supervisor to have my license posted. They posted my license less than 24 hours. The point is, call them i...

Yes. I bought the quick result to calm my nerves.? I can't wait for days or weeks to find out if I passed or failed.

You are not the only one. I tested last Friday and haven't received the official result yet. My friend tested on the 21st and haven't received his license number either.

If you are having trouble with the contents, then I strongly suggest trying www.nursing.com. I used it throughout nursing school and it helped me a lot. Sign up for the 3 day free trial to see if you like it. It has a lot of contents in video format ...

Have you tried nursing.com? They have the NCLEX prep program with 2,4,6 and 8 weeks study schedule. They also have a lot of NCLEX questions and adaptive test. Nursing has a lot of video contents and it might help you drill down the contents.

Hi, I am sorry that it happened to you. Have you tried nursing.com? They have a NCLEX prep program and 2,4,6 and 8 weeks study schedule. They have a lot of video contents and a lot of NCLEX questions. They also have the SIMCLEX, which is an adaptive ...

Tuition was cheap. It was $54 per credit. https://www.collin.edu/bursar/tuition.html The books packaged was like $1600ish for me. I chose the online books package because I like to read on the computer and it was cheaper than the physical books. The ...

Honestly, there wasn't any hardest semester for me. They were all equally hard. The hardest class for each semester is the Health Care Concepts class because it has the largest credits. I had a previous degree, so I didn't have to take composition 1....

Hi everyone, I wish you the best luck of getting into the program. I just graduated last month. I really liked the program. Let me know if you have questions. ?

I am also in the hiring process. I'm working at the Dallas VA as a Student Nurse Tech on MICU/CCU floor. I applied to the Transition to Practice (TTP) program. The VA also has the Post Baccalaureate Nurse Residency (PBNR). I just graduated with an A...

Hello, I am applying for the Spring 2019 semester. I want to start a new thread since I didn't find anything for the Spring 2019 semester. I will finish A&P2 this week. It seems like the HESI test at Grayson College is easier than the PSB test at...

I honestly think that A&P 1 and 2 were the hardest two classes I have ever taken. There were so many things to remember. I am about to start 3rd semester of an ADN program and I think that nursing classes are easier than A&P. That is just my ...
