  2. Got my acceptance letter for Adult-Gero NP program at University of Cincinnati yesterday! It was the only place I applied to so...whew!!
  3. I applied only to University of Cincinnati and my application was sent to the admissions committee on April 23 so the waiting
  4. I'm putting this out there because I tend to be a little on the impatient side and need perspective. My school sent out notices to my recommenders one week ago. Two of the three sent letters within a...
  5. Last letter was turned in today! Three more transcripts and I'm
  6. I've read a few posts about Fall and January filling up fast so I'm getting antsy to get finished with all my stuff! Three transcripts and one recommender to go. :) Are you online or in person? I'm...
  7. I went ahead and sent a reminder this morning. She said she had been busy and did forget and thanked me for the reminder so I'm glad I sent it!
  8. ISU FAQ thread

    I thought it might be nice to have the ISU threads divided between an FAQ thread and one for current ISU students. Tweety's idea was to make the ISU Pt. Deux thread the current students one and make a...
  9. Forgive me if this is a silly question. :) I've never lived in a border state before now. I live right on the edge of two different states. I'm originally licensed in Maryland and that license is...
  10. Thank
  11. Oh and this is for an RN license. I'm not sure if it's different between RN and LPN but thought I'd add that just in
  12. moderator note: this is a continuation of a previous thread that was very long and split by member request. this thread is primarily for current student discussion. there is another thread of faq:...
  13. I'm graduating with my BSN in December and I guess in the last semester they iron out all the details on licensure but I want to start job hunting this summer. Plus...I'm just impatient to get the...
  14. Having a GED does not necessarily mean one has less than a high school education. Many homeschoolers get GEDs and statistically they are *far* better educated than average high school
  15. Relocating to Montgomery County

    I'm not sure about the job market because we are getting ready to move to New Jersey but my top top TOP pick for hospitals in the area is Suburban. Especially the oncology floor. I did a distance...
  16. I got this from Kim Cook the other day. It's the most recent list of states that accept ISU's distance program. I'm attaching and also cut n pasting. Can we please make this sticky? ISU College...
  17. Are you freaking kidding me? Part of being an adult is taking responsibility for your own future. I'm not sure if you are aware but we are in what is called a recession. Let me say that slowly for...
  18. It wasn't too bad at all. What *was* difficult was taking high acuity and community together. Oh my. Each have 90 hours of clinical and community is really paper/project heavy
  19. The preceptor I had for psych is Lynn and she's the clinical nurse specialist on the unit. Hopefully she's still there. She's very excentric and very cool. I like her a lot. :) Very low key psych unit...
  20. Refresh my memory about what class 226 is. I'm in Maryland and I did assessment, psych, and med-surg at Suburban Hospital. I did critical care and the final practicum at Hopkins and community health...

  22. ISU FAQ thread

    That wasn't the case when I was in the program but things change all the time. I took two pretty heavy clinical courses together (community health and high acuity...I don't recommend those two...
  23. Am I really a critical care nurse?

    No this floor does not qualify youfor CCRN. PCCN probably. It's really bothersome to me that people are faking the experience for the exam. Great way to lose respect for the certification really
  24. The retro nurse's outfit has returned

    We have the big RN tags too. Works fine for us. I think these uniforms look like its Halloween. I wonder how the housekeepers would feel if we put them in black and white traditional maid uniforms?...
  25. Whadda u think about the college network?

    Which program are you planning on doing? EC or ISU? Because of course you realize that ISU does ATI (similar to HESI) and EC has that CPNE at the end right?
