Hey everyone, Just wondering if anyone else has applied to WSSU's FNP program. I've been waiting on pins and needles to find out if I have been accepted.

I say go for it! When I started nursing school my son was 18 months old. I got pregnant with my daughter 2 months into nursing school! I had my daughter on a Thursday and I was back in class on Monday morning. It was challenging but I wanted it bad e...

Complaining about getting a ua and a rapid strep test! Are you kidding me! She better stop complaining she could be working on a hospital unit with five patients with 20 medications and three pages worth of orders! She does not know how good she has ...

Bad reality shows and Angry Birds really helps me also! Great advice!

I'm not really sure what the average gpa is. I think the minimum gpa is a 3.0. I believe they are looking for around a 400 on the MAT. Not sure what they want on the GRE. I don't start the program until August so I really don't know all the stats of...

I work in a short stay/obs. unit. It is also called clinical decision unit. We usually get CP r/o MI, pre and post minor sx, and non-critical diagnosis pts. from the ED that are waiting on a Med/ Surg bed. Very fast paced and high turn around. Good l...

Congrats! I did too! We should exchange info! Woohooo! Do you know anyone else that got in?

Hey guys check your application status online ! I think the decisions have been made :)

Wow! I did not realize that they were still interviewing. I am from NC. I think there are 60 spots total for the program. Don't quote me on that. Are you from NC?

Wow! Well, I guess I will stop checking my mailbox and email religiously everyday!! LOL! Oh well, I guess I will relax, let go and let God. When did you interview and how did you think it went?

I know right! I need to know how I should plan my next few months!

I interviewed at the end of April. I turned in my application in March. I thought the interview went okay but you never know. How did your interview go?

Hey, I will post as soon as I hear something. When did you interview?

Hey Congrats on getting an interview! I just had an interview for FNP school last week. I interviewed with two professors who asked me: Why do you want to be a FNP? Why did you choose this school? What has been your greatest professional achievement...

Hey there! I work in CDU in my hospital. We are in fact, a sister unit to the ED. We are also a sister unit to CPEU(chest pain evaluation unit). This pretty much means that we could be floated to any of those 3 units if understaffed. Our CDU pretty a...

Hey guys, I am applying for USA's FNP program for Spring 2011. I was wondering if anyone else is applying and if anyone has any good info about the program and the admissions criteria and etc.. Thanks!

I think a phone interview may be required for the DNP but not for the MSN. I just sent my application this week. I actually emailed one of the records coordinators about admissions criteria and received an email back. She informed me that they use ...

Hello, Thanks for the reply! I actually applied for the just the MSN-FNP for Jan 2011. Are you at USA?

We got our ATT email the Tuesday before graduation and I took the NCLEX that Thursday. Best decision I ever made!

I took mine on the actual day that I graduated on 5/8/08 and passed.

Hey guys, I just took the NCLEX today. Had quite a few priorization questions and SATA. The computer shut off between 75-85. I know I got the last ? correct. Is that a good sign?

UNC-Chapel and UNC-Charlotte also have RN-MSN programs that allow you to skip the BSN if you already have a BA or BS in another field. I think a lot of schools are starting to do this.
