  1. OK Board of Nursing; Acceptance or Denial???

    CrunchyEvenInMilk replied to DanSharper's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Not to be a negative Nancy, but I'm in Texas, and our program told us that even those with expunged records would need to fill out a Declaratory Order of Eligibility because it would come back on the...

  2. West Coast University DALLAS 2018 NEED INFO

    CrunchyEvenInMilk replied to lv2bakc's topic in Texas Nursing

    I know I'm late, but I agree. You have to take patho and capstone at WCU. I do know people who only had to take those two classes and Cultural Pluralism (which is a humanities course) before they...

  3. New PCT -Peer Pressure

    CrunchyEvenInMilk replied to jsm1917's topic in Patient Care Technician, Assistants

    Idk why it's always like that when you get to a new place. You train and learn how to do things the right way, yet when you get on the floor, the more seasoned people don't do things the way they're...

  4. Is Medical Assistant school difficult?

    CrunchyEvenInMilk replied to Venusx30's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I did MA school 4 years ago, and I didn't find it that difficult. We did some basic med calc, but nothing too

  5. Handling the Bad with the Good - prospective student

    CrunchyEvenInMilk replied to Weird_Grammar's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Hey there! I'm still a nursing student, but I do go to school, work as a PCT at a Children's hospital, and have a husband and 3 kids. In terms of the schedule, my family and I just have to keep in...

  6. West Coast University DALLAS 2018 NEED INFO

    CrunchyEvenInMilk replied to lv2bakc's topic in Texas Nursing

    I'd like to add that I really like this thread! When I started at WCU, there weren't really any threads here apart from those that were bashing the school for the expense. It's nice to have a place...

  7. West Coast University DALLAS 2018 NEED INFO

    CrunchyEvenInMilk replied to lv2bakc's topic in Texas Nursing

    I will say this about the cost: if you have a decent GPA, they have a scholarship that can cover a lot of the tuition. Mine was 13,500 and with grants and loans, I paid nothing out of pocket for this...

  8. West Coast University DALLAS 2018 NEED INFO

    CrunchyEvenInMilk replied to lv2bakc's topic in Texas Nursing

    I don't know if you've gotten an answer to this one yet, but they do not allow concurrent enrollment. Once you start the program, they usually don't accept anymore transfer

  9. West Coast University DALLAS 2018 NEED INFO

    CrunchyEvenInMilk replied to lv2bakc's topic in Texas Nursing

    Eek! I'm still getting used to the notifications system here! So after you finish Patho, you have nursing orientation where you get your scrubs and ATI supplies. You'd wear your scrubs then for...

  10. Does the California Board of Nursing Accept BSN from Chamberlain outside California?

    CrunchyEvenInMilk replied to Paris2017's topic in Chamberlain College

    Why not take your NCLEX in Michigan then get your license endorsed in California? Or are you planning to take it in

  11. Question about Medical City...

    CrunchyEvenInMilk replied to WCSU1987's topic in Texas Nursing

    Idk about Medical City, but if you don't mind kids, Children's pays pretty well. I interviewed at Medical City with no experience and was offered $13/hr (which was less than I was making as an MA)....

  12. West Coast University DALLAS 2018 NEED INFO

    CrunchyEvenInMilk replied to lv2bakc's topic in Texas Nursing

    Well congratulations on starting! I looked into what weekend/evening option but decided I didn't want to switch. Lol. And I totally agree about the driving. I know people who drive from West of...

  13. West Coast University DALLAS 2018 NEED INFO

    CrunchyEvenInMilk replied to lv2bakc's topic in Texas Nursing

    Do you think you'll be around long enough to finish the program? Also, I should add that while each class meets once a week, if you have two classes, you'll be in Dallas twice a week because it's not...

  14. West Coast University DALLAS 2018 NEED INFO

    CrunchyEvenInMilk replied to lv2bakc's topic in Texas Nursing

    Hmm...I don't know about the TEAS score. I took the HESI, and since last June, the admission requirements have changed, and I'm not sure what they are. You can look in the school catalogue online to...

  15. West Coast University DALLAS 2018 NEED INFO

    CrunchyEvenInMilk replied to lv2bakc's topic in Texas Nursing

    In regards to kicking people out a lot, I haven't heard that to be the case. Most of the people I started with are still there, and the ones who are gone are the ones who didn't put in the work in...

  16. West Coast University DALLAS 2018 NEED INFO

    CrunchyEvenInMilk replied to lv2bakc's topic in Texas Nursing

    Howdy! This is actually my first post on here. I'm currently a student at WCU, so hopefully I can answer some questions for you. In terms of accreditation, WCU is CCNE accredited for nursing and...
