  1. 2021 UW-Seattle ABSN

    westiecoast replied to sjaneb88's topic in School, College Programs

    Hey all! My husband and I decided it would be best to attend the nursing program in the city we currently live in, so I just wanted to let people on the waitlist know there's one more spot that's...

    I received a call at 1pm that I was

    My heart jumped when I saw an email from UW today... and then I saw it was from the office of financial aid saying they had received my application

  4. Degree in different field before nursing school

    westiecoast replied to Kate Walker's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That's wonderful!

  5. WSU BSN Fall 2021

    westiecoast replied to KayK's topic in School, College Programs

    Yeah that totally makes sense... I'm already living in Spokane and I can tell you that there are tons of really cheap apartments you can sign last minute! But that's still stressful. Keep us updated...

  6. WSU BSN Fall 2021

    westiecoast replied to KayK's topic in School, College Programs

    That's really frustrating they don't tell you your spot on the waitlist. I know at least two people who have been waitlisted and then gotten in, so hopefully that'll be the

  7. WSU BSN Fall 2021

    westiecoast replied to KayK's topic in School, College Programs

    I would honestly call them and ask! That's so weird. Here's the numbers at the end of the email for each cohort: Spokane- Jodi Pyle 509 324 7203 [email protected]...

  8. WSU BSN Fall 2021

    westiecoast replied to KayK's topic in School, College Programs

    I'm not sure, that really sucks they didn't send them out together- I thought they always did that? I got my email at 10:39am for Spokane cohort. Did you check your spam

  9. WSU BSN Fall 2021

    westiecoast replied to KayK's topic in School, College Programs

    I did! Very excited for this next chapter.

    westiecoast replied to KayK's topic in School, College Programs

    Everyone check your emails! They're in- here we

  11. WSU BSN Fall 2021

    westiecoast replied to KayK's topic in School, College Programs

    So good to know we're all in the same boat! For a bit I was thinking, what if they only send emails to the accepted people and I just didn't get one? How am I supposed to sleep tonight though......

    westiecoast replied to KayK's topic in School, College Programs

    This is torture! I've been checking my email nonstop since Monday. Such an unproductive week for me

  13. 2021 UW-Seattle ABSN

    westiecoast replied to sjaneb88's topic in School, College Programs

    Sometime in December! The website says "Successful applicants for the ABSN are notified in December and are expected to accept or decline admission no later than February 15." Wish it was sooner...

  14. ADN or ABSN?

    westiecoast replied to FtN4U's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think that's awesome! And working with kids in healthcare will hopefully make it easier for you to get a job in peds right out of graduation when you become a nurse. Glad I could help

  15. ADN or ABSN?

    westiecoast replied to FtN4U's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think it depends on a couple things. If your pre-req or cum GPA is below a 3.0, that might stand in the way for ABSN programs because they have a minimum GPA requirement. It also depends on where...

  16. ADN or ABSN?

    westiecoast replied to FtN4U's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Sure! I can't send DM's yet because my account is too new. Here's what I know: • Lots of schools will count a previous bachelor's degree as your first 2 years of college, no matter what the...

  17. Does anyone know a trusted vendor online for medical grade KN95 masks?

    westiecoast replied to NewRN'16's topic in Disaster Preparation

    This might be more anecdotal, but I get my KN95's from Amazon. I was wearing one during a shift when a patient, who we didn't know had covid, coughed directly into my face as I was helping her...

  18. ADN or ABSN?

    westiecoast replied to FtN4U's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi there, Have you considered transferring into a BSN program as a junior? I have a previous bachelors degree and just interviewed for a state school BSN program, where I'd be able to complete my...

  19. Medical experience for applying to nursing schools

    westiecoast replied to munkyfusic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If PCC will count your experience, that's great. It does sound really similar to CNA work, which is what I did. I think they really like CNA work because you're working closely with nurses, plus it's...

  20. Degree in different field before nursing school

    westiecoast replied to Kate Walker's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi there! I got my undergrad degree in Public Health and am hopefully starting nursing school in January as a junior/transfer student. (Had my interview today and it went super well YAY!) My...

  21. 2021 UW-Seattle ABSN

    westiecoast replied to sjaneb88's topic in School, College Programs

    Thanks for the update! I think there's roughly 60-65 spots, so that's like a 12% acceptance

  22. WSU BSN Fall 2021

    westiecoast replied to KayK's topic in School, College Programs

    Hi there! I'm applying for the Spring 2021 cohort. I'm also pretty nervous, especially since I'm a transfer student (graduated 2019), and I know it's extra competitive for us. My nursing GPA is...

  23. 2021 UW-Seattle ABSN

    westiecoast replied to sjaneb88's topic in School, College Programs

    Anyone else feel a bit thrown off by the essay prompt? I had been practicing more of like nursing situations. Oh well! My main points were that nurses should have an awareness about the...
