  1. HRSA: Is Nurse Corps Scholarship Program Worth It?

    UnapologeticallyCurly posted a topic in General Nursing

    Hey everyone, Like many, I'm broke and looking at all my options to help fund my BSN. At the moment, I'm not enrolled or admitted to any nursing program. I'm applying to transfer to a 4-year this Fall...

  2. Pregnant Nursing Students?

    UnapologeticallyCurly posted a topic in General Students

    Many pregnant nursing student posts were rather outdated, so I figure I'd start my own! ?? I'm 24 and in an accelerated BSN program. This is my first child and I'm due in the second semester of my...

  3. CSULB Spring 2020

    UnapologeticallyCurly replied to crabfish45's topic in School, College Programs

    Hey guys, I was recently admitted for Fall 2019 at CSULB. The TEAS range for my cohort was 89%-100% and GPA was 3.8+... Most of those admitted had a score of ~ 9.4. It is extremely competitive. I...

  4. CSULB FALL 2019

    UnapologeticallyCurly replied to pedsnurse2626's topic in School, College Programs

    Due to the influx of incoming students, I was told that the processing time for transcripts was 4-6 weeks. I think you should be fine as long as they were received before the due date ? Edited to ask:...

  5. CSULB FALL 2019

    UnapologeticallyCurly replied to pedsnurse2626's topic in School, College Programs

    Me too! I just checked. Congrats to those who got in! I look forward to meeting you all at orientation! ?? I can't believe I'm finally going to be a NURSE. It seemed so distant and abstract when I...

  6. CSULB FALL 2019

    UnapologeticallyCurly replied to pedsnurse2626's topic in School, College Programs

    It was from CSULB admissions, but I also figured they wouldn't send me the admission email and link to activate MyCSULB if I didn't get into the SON... I hope ? Because under major it says "BS Basic"...

    UnapologeticallyCurly replied to pedsnurse2626's topic in School, College Programs

    I know they asked for us NOT to call them regarding application status ?, but has anyone caved in and called? Just curious

  9. Santa Monica College Fall 2019 ADN Program

    UnapologeticallyCurly replied to Nurseintheemaking's topic in School, College Programs

    @empowerandbelieve Most people bought the red NLN-PAX prep book or the NLN-PAX by Mometrics... You can find them on Amazon or Barnes and Nobles. I'd advise against using TEAS prep material because the...

  10. Santa Monica College Fall 2019 ADN Program

    UnapologeticallyCurly replied to Nurseintheemaking's topic in School, College Programs

    @empowerandbelieve They should accept them because California CC's have articulation agreements, but I'd call and ask anyways. If SMC is a top choice for you, it's better be

  11. CSULB FALL 2019

    UnapologeticallyCurly replied to pedsnurse2626's topic in School, College Programs

    Hey guys, I'm new to this thread but I've been following for some time. I checked my application status and it says I'm ADMITTED ? I saw it said once we get the official notice, we have 48 hrs to...

  12. Santa Monica College Fall 2019 ADN Program

    UnapologeticallyCurly replied to Nurseintheemaking's topic in School, College Programs

    Hey guys, I've been looking at this thread for a while and finally decided to comment... For those in future semesters, if you are a strong candidate (high points) begin studying as soon as you submit...

  13. Job opportunities in a new state for a new grad?

    UnapologeticallyCurly posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    Hi all 🙂 I'm a pre-nursing major and I have already completed general requirements (sciences, liberal arts, electives) at a community college. My goal is to move out of state in the near...

  14. Need advice for my future

    UnapologeticallyCurly replied to TheDongTran's topic in General Students

    Did you do your research prior to attending UCI? Was nursing your original goal, or did you change your major? To reiterate everyone's sentiments: Study harder and raise that GPA. If you're sure that...

  15. LIU or Stonybrook for an out-of-state transfer student ?

    UnapologeticallyCurly replied to UnapologeticallyCurly's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi there! Yeah, I've heard Hunter is extremely competitive! It's one of the cheapest (nursing) schools in NYC, so I understand. I've done some more research and actually went to the school to speak to...

  16. LIU or Stonybrook for an out-of-state transfer student ?

    UnapologeticallyCurly posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi, all! I'm a pre-nursing student at a community college in California and I'll be applying to a few BSN programs here. However, I'm also interested in the BSN program at Stonybrook University (in...

  17. Job opportunities in a new state for a new grad?

    UnapologeticallyCurly replied to UnapologeticallyCurly's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Wow! Six figure salary?! Very impressive... To be honest, I always thought people chose nursing school because of the stability (financial, housing, guaranteed schedule). I'd never thought I'd have to...

    UnapologeticallyCurly replied to UnapologeticallyCurly's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Thank you for the info! I will keep that in

  19. Job opportunities in a new state for a new grad?

    UnapologeticallyCurly replied to UnapologeticallyCurly's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Hey y'all, sorry I've not responded to anyone... It's finals week at my junior college *fingers crossed* I'm in California, the state that's basically driving the nursing craze! Lol. Every other...

  20. Has anyone taken microbiology and physiology in the same semester?

    UnapologeticallyCurly replied to sofiwes49's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you have a strong foundation (i.e. anatomy, chemistry, basic biology) you should do well... The students who struggle are the ones who skipped prerequisite courses or found a teacher to give them a...

  21. Balance between school and work?

    UnapologeticallyCurly posted a topic in General Students

    Were any of you able to go to school (FULL-TIME) and work (PART-TIME) at the same time? How did it affect your academic grades? I'm trying to get a $10K scholarship at a private university. If I work...

  22. Balance between school and work?

    UnapologeticallyCurly replied to UnapologeticallyCurly's topic in General Students

    Hey all, thanks for your insights. They are all so appreciated. Schools have a very fixed perspective and want your undivided attention, so they discourage working. They make school easy, like you...

  23. LIU or Stonybrook for an out-of-state transfer student ?

    UnapologeticallyCurly replied to UnapologeticallyCurly's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Currently, I have a 4.0 GPA and some non-related volunteer work. I don't think letters of recommendation will be an issue, but I'm concernes because as of now I have no medical experience (through...

  24. LIU or Stonybrook for an out-of-state transfer student ?

    UnapologeticallyCurly replied to UnapologeticallyCurly's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I saw they have info sessions at LIU for transfer students, but usually the SON will have their own detailed info sessions. It is definitely like pulling teeth when you're 3,000 miles away :-/ Really?...
