I am not set to renew until October. Will there be an obvious link to click to renew? Right now there isn’t anywhere that says “renew” , so that’s why I’m asking.

Hi everyone, I will be renewing for the first time in October. I understand I do not have to complete the CEUs for the first time, but how will I actually renew my license? Will there be a link on my Texas Nurse Portal page to click and pay? Will I receive an email with a link through Nursys? I have combed the BON's website, but I haven't found an answer yet. Thank yall!

I know, just asking experienced nurses a question. Thanks.

Hello all, I'm starting my nursing program in two weeks. Do you have any advice for me? If you could go back in time, what advice would you give yourself before you started your nursing school journey?

Good luck to you!

Hi, nice to meet you! UTA's AO BSN program was actually my number one choice until I found out about WGU's online pre-licensure program. It's super flexible and works better with my schedule. I was accepted to the program and start September 1st! How is your progress coming? I'm super excited í ½í¸Š

Congrats!! It was exciting for me to read that you were accepted, I can't even imagine how awesome that must have felt for you! The letter was sent fairly quickly as well; did it say how many other people applied at the same time? I plan on submitting my application in May; I only have two classes to finish and then my checklist will finally be complete! Do you have any tips as far as making your application stand out? When are you starting clinicals? I've heard various scenarios, some people say you start them early on while others say you basically finish most of your online classes and then do your clinicals towards the end of the program. Is it possible to have a full time job and participate in clinicals?

Hello everyone, I am currently finishing up my last two courses (A&PII lecture & lab) and I plan to submit my official WGU Pre-Licensure BSN program application in mid-late May, depending on when the grades for those last two courses are put into the system. I will be applying to the Houston cohort. I found this thread and it has answered lots of questions I've had, so thank you!

Congrats! I am in Houston and hoping to eventually get into the WGU program. I have one semester left of pre-reqs and then I will have the checklist completed! Do you have any advice that you can give me as far as getting accepted into the program?? What were your GPA and TEAS scores like? I'd also love to know more specific info about the program as far as your clinical sites. I work at Memorial Hermann Memorial City and was wondering if it's a clinical site, and what the clinical dates were like. Thanks!!!

What was your test score, if you don't mind me asking? I'm taking my test this Friday!

Does anyone have coupon codes for the ATI TEAS Basic Package? ($103 before S&H) The total is $125, and the test itself is $115. Trying to save a little $$$ here! Any help is much appreciated. :)

Very helpful, thank you so much.

Hello! I am currently completing my pre-requisites for the program; I'm almost done. I have not completed Biochemistry or Pharmacology yet, but I read that I can complete those once I am accepted into the program- is this correct? What is the clinical rotation like? I have seen the sample rotation schedule posted on the website, but it is a bit confusing. I currently work 40 hours a week at Memorial Hermann Memorial City. I have heard that this is a clinical site; is that still true? If so, is it possible to complete clinical hours after a regular work day shift? Are weekend clinicals also an option? Sorry for this bombardment, but I've been looking at so many nursing school options and WGU seems to be the best fit for me; almost too good to be true! Thanks for your time!

Has anyone been through this program? I'd appreciate some personal insight if you have!
