Gotcha, well talk your advisor and see if they've printed the ID yet. If not, you can get the picture retaken. Yes, I've gotten all the books back :)

Within the first month of classes. There should've been an item on the checklist from when you got accepted into the program, and that item would tell you by what day you needed to have a BUC ID done. They print the badges right after that day, so yo...

Wear your scrubs. Clinical orientation counts as a clinical experience. You should be getting more information from your instructor closer to the start of classes.

We're all in the process of exchanging our books for the revised edition, because some had it from the beginning and others had the older version. So, yes you do need the revised edition of the books.

Email Chris ([email protected]) about it and see if they have spots open in the traditional group. You can't switch once the final acceptance packets are sent out, which happens after you clear the background check.

Just saw this. What questions do you guys have?

Congratulations to everyone who was accepted into the nursing program! You guys did it!

ANEW is not new to the Collier campus, I know a couple of people that just finished the first semester from that group (Spring 2018). Welcome to the Collier campus crew though!

You should be hearing back from them in the next few days, if they're following the same routine like the last few application cycles. You can always call or email and ask when they're anticipating releasing the decisions. :)

You're pretty much accepted, but it depends on the number of applicants versus spaces available.I haven't really heard of anyone being denied admission after they passed the background check and drug test.

They didn't send them out early. That was about 2 weeks after the applications closed. When you get through Level 1 of the application, they send an email letting you know that you made it to Level 2. At that point, they give you instructions for how...

Hey guys! Now second semester nursing student, so I definitely survived the first semester. My group filled out all the necessary orientation forms for our next clinical site, which is another hospital in the area. We're still waiting to hear who is ...

I'd suggest getting the MNL codes and using the books from there, because it's easier to search and find things online, and you'll do a lot of activities during lectures that have you looking up things. I just carry my laptop to lectures, which is mu...

Wait to do the background check, because they run a specific one and CastleBranch will give you that information once you make it through Phase 1 of the application process. There is a way to get around the $1500 or so that the books cost. People ha...

Pharm on that scale would be about an 8, just because what you need to know for the drug categories is a little bit different and there are a lot sound alike drugs. IVs and medication administration is all second semester, so I'm not doing that unti...

They've changed a lot about the pre-reqs and requirements in the recent past. I have friends who graduated as recently as December of last year, and the program is very different now from what they went through, since the last change occurred in Fall...

It could be, but for the Spring 2018 class that same trend was present and all three campuses are full to capacity, except for one not having ANEW. I think we had maybe 20 people talking on the All Nurses thread. Also, from what the advisors have tol...

I'm excited for you guys! On average, it takes about 4 weeks to know whether you're in the program. It takes them about 2 weeks to decide if you're going to the next stage of the application process, so Step 2 where you do your background check and a...

Three more weeks until the semester is done! Yay! We've all transferred to a nearby hospital to do clinical, so basically all the skills from lab and concepts from lecture are fair game to use on the clinical floor. The clinical paperwork is getting ...

Hey, I applied with several of the pre-reqs being as AP credit. What happens is they count the credit hours, but there's no grade, so your GPA solely depends on the remaining pre-reqs that have an official grade to them at the time of application. Fo...

Unless they've changed it again, there won't be an interview, so after you clear your background and drug screens, you'll get a letter with the final decision. In the past, the interview was an online, approximately 5 minute video that you recorded w...

You can apply for both ANEW and traditional at the same time unless they changed the application. Then, it just depends on where you stack up against the other people trying to get into the same program. If I remember correctly, you rank the three ca...

Hey, my program is 24 months since I started in the Spring. It's 20 months if you start in the Fall.

Yup, that sounds exactly like the current ANEW program on my campus. The weekend day is your clinical day, and the 1 or 2 weekdays are your pharmacology review or skills lab day. In case you haven't heard what time the night classes are, they are 5:3...

Hey, I don't personally know them, but there are several people who got into the ANEW program from Spring 2018, so try checking the Spring 2018 Allnurses thread and contacting some of them. As far as study guides and being told exactly what to study,...
