2010nursing

I am in the program. I had 3.8 in sciences. All around 3.6. 88% in reading and comp. in NET; low scores in math. What I have noticed about the students in the program is that everyone is very unique. If you get an interview be sure include things that will make you stand out (i.e. your travels, hobbies, if you speak different languages, volunteer work et..) The majorty of people have an degree in a science, however there are also people like me who do not. The program is exhausting, but great! Good Luck!

I am applyig to Texas Tech's 2nd BSN program for January 2009. Has anyone been accepted? I am wondering how difficult it is to get into. I have a 4.0 in all prerecs, except for patho which I am taking this fall. I am wondering what my odds are??? Any imformation would be very helpful!

You should go for the 2nd degree BSN. If you can't get in with a background like yours, then no one can! The following schools offer 2nd degree BSN. Texas Tech (Jan. cohort is in Austin), UTMB in Galveston (easiet 2nd degree to get into, they accecpt around 100 applicants), UT- Houston ( very difficult to get into), Texas A & M Corpus Christi, UT- Arlington, UT- San Antonio. Look up their websites and find out prerecs. Also, if you want to become a Nurse Practioner, you typically have to had one year nursing under your belt. Then you have to complete two program (after obtaining BSN) to become an NP.
