Just went back to the Fall 2009 thread, and Cyfair took eight days longer than the other schools. I really hope they don't do that this year...I'll end up a nervous wreck seeing everyone else get...

I think it just depends on how many chose Cy Fair as their first choice. One of the girls in my micro class was told that they (Cy Fair) didn't get as many applications this year, so that could mean...

This is the tuition break down that was posted for Cyfair Fall 2009. I think that there's been yet another tuition hike, so I'm expecting around $600 or so. For in-district students this semester,...

EmBeMap- Congrats on the Pell grant...this is my first year to qualify too. I still haven't heard whether I'll be getting it or not, but it's still nice to qualify (more than nice actually, I almost...

Ditto what Heathers said. Here is the score sheet that all of the LSC colleges use- LSC Score Sheet I would really like to get an internship, but it seems there aren't enough to go around for all of...

cschoppe- Thanks for the tips. I expect them to do some 'weeding out', and I expect to be on overload from day one, so hopefully being somewhat mentally prepared will help. I do plan on getting an...

Thangbom- They do have insurance through the school. I have no idea how much it costs, just remember that it was brought up at one of the info sessions. Since it's a requirement and they likely...

That make me feel better that I'm not the only one. Don't you just wish we could start already? I feel like I'll be burned out by the time August rolls around because it's all I can think about...

I'm so glad that I'm not the only one! My husband gives me a hard time about always being on here, but I figure it's better than jabbering to him about it all the time. So have any of you decided...

Then I'm certifiable, too. I keep reading the old threads for info about dates, orientation, supplies, scrubs, etc. Trying to tide myself over, I suppose. I noticed that date too...it's my...

Katherine- When I dropped off my app at Cyfair, I was told it would be a month and a half. I said that I figured it would be around April, and she said that she says a month and a half otherwise she...

Erica- I've heard great things about North Harris. Actually, I've heard great things about all of them, even Cyfair. I'm glad to hear that they aren't unfair. That's really what matters to me the...

No kidding! I've seen those too, and it baffles me. Although if someone were to just go on the LSC website, it looks like it's that way too. Even though I haven't taken any nursing classes, it...

I should have said that I'm planning to take 1301 this summer...at another campus. CyFair only offers 1201, and only to current nursing students. I went back and read what I wrote...it was much more...
lilag02 replied to StephanieNicole's topic in Texas Nursing
It used to be that in order to sub 1301 for 1201, you had to take a pharm test that was reportedly near impossible. However, they just changed it (this app period, I believe) to where you just have...

Songbird- I completely understand your feelings. I waited to apply until I had the four points for co-reqs simply for the fact that it seems nearly impossible to be accepted with anything less. It...

tsheen- I don't think you opened a can of worms. It's probably just that everyone's anxious and tensions are running high. I'm not surprised that someone got a 100 on the HESI...it was bound to...

Hey girl! How's your semester going? Are the notes helping at all? It's my understanding that the reason that they have the deadline is so that the score sheet will update in time...mine took about...

Ditto this almost word for word. I was so nervous while I was taking it, so when I saw my score I wanted to jump up and down--figured the assessment center staff wouldn't appreciate that, so I...
This is what I was going to say. Most of my instructors do not allow us to keep exams for this very reason, and they re-write the tests every semester. However, my sociology instructor allowed us to...

tsheen- I hear ya on the info sessions, I had to skip class to make it to one. I would think that you could go to any campus, since there is only one application and we can apply to more than one....
I'm glad that you guys were able to find another option. I thought that I'd hears of Tech having a program through Austin, but I didn't see it when I did my search. Good luck to your
So I just did a search out of curiosity, and realized that I have completely taken for granted that there are so many options in Houston. I can't believe how few there are in Austin! I did go ahead...
