Good luck with your application. I felt the same way when I was in your shoes. The latest cut off is not 3.86. UNR actually changed the requirements so acceptance is not all GPA based anymore. What gets you in is your interview, GPA and essay (which ...

Hi All, So my husband is thinking strongly about moving to the Seattle area. I've never been there but i've heard its a great place to live. We first planned to move to Az si i could attend a private nursing school there but now we may change our pla...

Hi kjsquared, I noticed from the threads that you are enrolled at TMCC's nursing program. May i ask would you recommend the program to others ? Also, you said that alot of people in your class are going the CNA route on the side, does one automatical...

The people that don't yet have their positions, are they the ones that signed up with the hospital- Carondelet ? The one thing that i've read about the program that i like is that they make sure everyone makes it to the end for graduation. Is that ho...

Azdesertflower, which was the best choice of all the sponsoring hopsitals (the ones that kept their end of the contract and hired the students ?) Did u get to pick where you wanted to work ? Do you like where you ended up? They told me that the hospi...

So i just called the school and was told the MS program just prepares you to be a nurse generalist (an R.N) not a nurse practioner.They do however have programs for that after one becomes an RN. They offer the online certificates of the DNP. The MS p...

Katie, if i were you i would request a forbearance on my loans untill i could register for the next term thus there would be no need to pay them off. If not i would take non nursing classes instead. There is a class that i've heard is a good class fo...

Gtterbug, Thanks for the info. I've become ireally interested in the part time track for spring 2011 since i have two little boys and thus would not be able to do the full time. Do you know if the schedule in the part time track is intense ? I think ...

Hello all, Can anyone give me some insight on any Entry Level Masters of Nursing programs in Ca that are not too overly competitive to get into and do not require the GRE ? I have a couple degrees in fields other than nursing and I know that private ...

I did not end up applying since i decided not to take A&P 2 this semester but rather this Spring. I dont regret my decision because i'm hoping to apply to another accelrated program in the summer that offers a BSN. I've heard both horrible and go...

I know many nursing programs are highly competitive but i was windering if there are any in Washington that are relatively easier to get into than the competitive ones ? I have all my general Pre-reqs (except A&P 2) at the moment although some ma...

From what i hear, Renown is pretty short staffed on nurses. You may wanna try them. Good luck !

Can anyone please tell me if the ELM program is still available at Touro ? I would like to apply for March. The BSN and BSN-MSN and RN-BSN program are all listed on their website but i can't find any mention on the ELM program anymore. If it is still...

Did you notice that they are now offering a part time nursing program ? It just takes longer than the other two programs. Does anyone have experience with the accelerated program ? I will be applying for the accelerated BSN and wanted to ask if there...

Can anyone share what the name of the Microbiology text is ? I need to get a used one online. I am hoping to register for the class today. I'm really hoping to get an A since the nursing program i'd like to apply to is very competitive. There are two...

Does anyone know how soon will students receive a reponse if applying to the Fast track program this coming January?

Hi Clam27, yes i did get a hold of Admissions after numerous attempts. Unfortunatley they are no longer offering the entry level Masters Program. They didn't give me any reason as to why but its no longer an option. Do you know any other schools in n...

Hi Taren Koren, Welcome to the allnurses. Well, classes at Apollo will begin August 31st. Clinicals will be held at Renown in Reno. There are three classes starting, 1st, 2nd and 3rd sessions (i was told about 60 spots will be filled). The third sess...

If anyone is interested in the information that i've found PM me and i'll be happy to share.

This doesn't sound fair Michelle, I will find out more information. My husband works at Renown and his supervisor is one of the nursing directors but he also works closely with some of the the hiring managers. I will find out more and post soon.

Yes pretty much. Everything you need to know for the test is in the study guide. Good luck :wink2:

Sorry to hear that Michelle.laree. Did they give you a reason as to why they wont hire you or other graduates from Apollo college ? That seems a little strange since clinicals for apollo college students in Reno will be held at Renown. Do you get the...

Any ELM programs ? Anybody?

Thanks for the well wishes MissAmberCNA, I got into the second class since my Microbiology was six years old and all science classes needed to be under 5 years so i needed to take it again before i could get into the nursing classes. I've been wait...

Congratulations MissAmberCNA, I too got accepted into the second class. However, i will need to turn down my spot next week since i wont receive enough financial aid to attend. Pretty sad .
