No problem! I just wanted to mention I was speaking to one of my friends who is also going to be working as a new grad at Providence in the ED (not the one at Mission Hospital, though), and she was told me that they told her they don't have a uniform...

Yeah, I asked my supervisor who is super helpful. I was told we buy our own scrubs and to make sure they're Royal Blue. They previously embroidered the side of their scrub tops to have something like "Providence RN" but are no longer having that on t...

Can confirm for Mission Hospital in Mission Viejo. This was the amount I was also offered and was also told it was non-negotiable.

@tmht I haven't yet reached back out! There was a post (linked below) on a new grad facebook group that I follow where someone else went through the same thing, so I was hoping Mission Viejo was just a bit slower to their send official letters compar...

Hi everyone, Congratulations on being accepted! I see some people are mentioning Mission, is this the hospital in Mission Viejo or Mission Hills? I received a call from Mission Viejo's location about 10 days ago they were planning on hirin...

Thank you so much for responding! Yes, mine also did end up changing to Fall 2021 after a day or two, so I was quite relieved to see that! ? I'm crossing my fingers for all of us!! ?

After I submitted my application, my status states "Posted." ?

Hi everyone, I'm also applying for Fall 2021! I applied last semester (for Spring 2021), but unfortunately didn't get in; however I was wondering if anyone else who applied last semester is also seeing the same status appear on their CSUN portal. The...

Gah! Waitlist as well!

@FutureNurseTayler I have not! However, I strongly believe we'll know their decision by week 10! Crossing my fingers!! ? @Ashley Symone You're right, unfortunately, many ABSN programs seem quite pricey! The only ideal priced schools I've seen so far ...

@Ashley Symone I live in Southern California, and I really hope you get into USF b/c I know California will gladly welcome you! Those are great schools! A school on the east coat that I've been hesitantly looking at is Johns Hopkins Uni (not sure if ...

@Ashley Symone I may be biased, but I think our expectations were very good! ? By the way, what other schools are you planning on applying to? ?

I had seen on Charles Drew’s website that they weren’t waiving it, but I didn’t know they were allowing you to take it at home! That’s pretty helpful! Side note: Y’all, I was SO hopeful they’d waive it!

Hey guys, I haven't heard anything back either! I'm also assuming we'll hear back from them during week 10 (between June 22nd and 26th)! IIRC, from reading the previous threads, rejections come out first, so I'm hoping to not hear from them at the mo...

@NancyT Hi there! Welcome to the forum! Good luck to you as well!!

I agree, although MSN would be my preferred route, I want to keep my options open. It’s great that you have a job lined up for once you’re done with nursing school! I would be super proud of myself if I was in your spot and I’m sure you’ll be a fant...

@PagingNurseTerri Definitely! It opened my eyes to different ways to pay for school. And I have just started looking into Accelerated BSN programs! Yes, they thankfully do take FAFSA! Here’s a helpful link I found: https://www.usfca.edu/nursing/progr...

@PagingNurseTerri Yes! My mom had her ADN, but was required to go back to school to get her BSN (the hospital she worked at generously payed for it!), so sometimes I wonder whether getting a BSN, then getting an MSN (if the place I work at would have...

@PagingNurseTerri Those are some great schools! I was looking at Charles Drew for some time, but was nervous about taking the HESI. I definitely think direct entry MSN programs are the way to go b/c I think eventually (10-30 years from now?) they'll ...

@Sdnursinggirl619 I’m sorry to hear about USD! They missed out on you! But U of Hawaii sounds amazing! What an awesome place to go to school! I did my first two years at my local CC, then transferred to UC Santa Barbara! Are you planning on applying ...

@Sdnursinggirl619 Yes! I’m crossing my fingers and toes for all of us! ??Whereabouts did you go to school for undergrad? Also since you live in SD, did you apply to USD for their nursing school by any chance? USD has been a school I’ve been looking i...

@anonymous-phn-RN The lack of empathy you display really saddens and shocks me. In a time when our nurses are getting sick from lack of PPE and are having to come in contact with their high risk family members, you chose to try to divide people inste...

@Sdnursinggirl619 Hi there! CONGRATS on applying! Did you apply to the SF campus or the OC one? Whichever one you applied to, I’m wishing you good luck! (PS: I have no clue why whenever I write CONGRATS it capitalizes all the letters. I swear it’s...

@kaitlinrenee I definitely believe it’ll all be worth it! I’m sure you’ll be an amazing nurse! But WOW!, thank you for all the insight and all the time you spent in answering the questions! It’s really neat that b/c you are in such an early cohort, ...

@KatherineAudrianna-FutureRN Yippie! CONGRATS on turning in your app! I remember how relieved I felt after submitting mine since I had been stressing over my words for quite a while, so I hope you’re feeling a similar relief! I’m crossing my fingers ...
