I am in the program there. I graduate in May.

What semester is your friend going into at CF?

Yes, the professors are pretty tough when it comes to exams. I think a couple of them just want us to be prepared for the NCLEX so they make their own questions and sometimes they can be contraindicative of what we learned from the book. Most of the ...

Can those of you who just graduated tell me what the workload is like for the adaptations course online?

I've decided to make this page for anyone applying for the Spring 2019 ADN program at Lone Star CF/K. I'm so nervous and it's still kinda far away! Good luck!

Welcome to cf nursing program. Get use to it because everything they do is last minute. We start second semester in a week and they just gave us our schedules a few days ago and we still don’t have our book list for one of the classes. I think they d...

The program doesn’t look at your cumulative GPA, they only take the average GPA of A&P and ENGL 1301. So if you got an A in English and a B in A&P you would have a 3.5 as an average GPA. Also, you have to make a 74.5+ to pass in the program s...

You also have to take into consideration the damage that Hurricane Harvey did. I spoke to the director about CF and Kingwoods completion rates over the last two years and they said that most was because half lost their cars and homes and dropped the ...

You are right, sir. Here ya go. Not sure why I remembered it being a 98. I think because in my head I remember missing one and I calculated the grade in my head comparing it to the 50 question exams I have been taking all semester.

You guys, stop wasting money on HESI study guides. They’re all BS. Just go to quizlet and type in HESI Anatomy and Physiology review. Look for the one with 299 terms (I couldn’t copy and paste the link from my phone). This is all I studied and made a...

18 months. You don’t get a summer break. You only get 3 weeks in the spring and 3 weeks in the fall.

I’ve been at CF since January and haven’t been tested yet. They only drug test you right before clinicals. CF doesn’t start clinicals until second semester.

CF average graduating class is 35. I wouldn’t really say it’s “extremely low” compared to other campuses. I feel like it just seems that way because our starting class is so small. However, yes, it is extremely rigorous. I chose CF for a couple of re...

Is this score from fall or spring? Because I was talking about my spring cohort. Fall you have a really good chance since there’s so many campuses open.

Well the lowest that I knew of was a 7.4 and only because it was a friend of mine. She was an alternate and got in only a couple days before orientation. Sadly 3 people didn’t show and CF doesn’t accept any alternates after orientation. We started at...

I am first semester ADN at CF. Hesi was a 95 and score was 7.8. I think the lowest score in my cohort was a 7.4.

Yes, they’ll send it to your email a couple week after the acceptance letters go out.

Basically it’s a package by elsiver (the same website you went through for the entrance HESI) that has a bunch of case studies and quizzes in there that you are suppose to take before an exam. They use to do it as a “testing ticket” meaning if you di...

I am in the CF ADN program. $890 is about the tuition price for just the classes. Aside from that, for my first semester I spent around $2500.00+ as did most of my cohort. Books alone cost as much as all my classes. I spend about $550 on books and I ...

Hun, you will be just fine. That is a really good score. I am not sure how many students Montgomery take, but CF only takes 50 and the lowest score that was accepted was around a 7.4. I think some 7.3 alternatives got in. I know NH lets in the most (...

I don’t know what your first choice campus is, but at CF we went over the syllabus the first day then jumped right in. In fact, I think our first exam was about 3 weeks in. Where did you hear that you won’t report to class the first 3 weeks?

I am in my first semester at CF and yes, we go through the summer and it is a 18 month program. It’s not a choice, that’s just how it is. It is Lone Stars only campus that has a “block” curriculum. This means that our courses are broken down into spe...

If you happen to get into CF we are an accelerated program that runs though the summer, so you would graduate in 18 months.

Your score is based on a scale from 0-8. It comes from your cumulative HESI score, your A&P 1 or A&P 2 GPA (whichever is the highest), and your ENGL 1301 GPA. The first part of your score is the average GPA or your ENGL and A&P GPA. So fo...

Maybe at NH. They have 120 spots. I had a friend get into NH as her 2nd choice with a 7.3. CF is pretty competitive since they only have 50 spots. I am at CF and the score cut-off for my cohort was around a 7.5. Only about 4 alternates got accepted a...
