  1. Northbay Healthcare New Grad Program

    I also applied. What does your status say now regarding the application?
  2. Houston GN Residencies

    Hey was wondering where abouts you saw the intern position posted for MD Anderson, I just checked all their open positions and didn't see anything listed and their link to the GN intern page still says to check back spring 2011
  3. CSN Fall 2010

    cut-off for part-time is usually higher because they accept much less students for the part-time program, I think they only accept like 30 students so makes sense why the cut-off would be higher.
  4. First semester CSN students

    Did anyone else here (full-time students) put their name down for the lottery to be selected for mental health in the summer with the part time students? Did anyone get selected? I got the call today that I got picked and now trying to decide wheth...
  5. CSN summer courses

    Yes it would make fall easier but don't get too excited yet, it's random lottery, they were offering mental health over the summer and they only had 6 places and many people put their name down to be picked. I was lucky that I got picked. So good l...
  6. CSN summer courses

    I'm not sure, if they do you will hear something towards the end of the semester, and if you are full time then if they offer it to you it'll only be limited spaces due to the part time people so that's why they pick the people via random lottery. I...
  7. what you need to know for fluid and electrolytes in 115 is way more in depth then first semester so thats def a good thing to get started on. i don't know how you went with the textbook reading in first semester but even with 115 as my only class (i...
  8. I just finished 115 and I believe the first lecture was chapters 16, 17, 18 (pre-op, intraoperative and post op stuff), that stuff is pretty simple, also get started on chapter 13 (fluid and electrolytes), as that's a major part and can be quite diff...
  9. Well my decision was made FOR me

    Yeah nine years ago seems pretty extreme to not consider you. But glad you don't mind that they are no longer an option. This week I just have to take finals for second semester of the nursing program and then first year will be complete . I wish ...
  10. Spring 2010 CSN ADN Program

    CONGRATS!!! I'm so happy that you finally got your answer and that it was good news...let the fun and stress begin lol.
  11. Spring 2010 CSN ADN Program

    yes you will go sign a letter saying that you accept the offer to be in the program and pick up a packet that tells you all the paperwork you need to turn into your advisor so that you can receive your lovely clinical ticket so that you can take care...
  12. Spring 2010 CSN ADN Program

    Good luck and I hope you like it also. I'm in second semester of the program and have been mostly happy with it. CSN has a great reputation for their nursing program.
  13. Spring 2010 CSN ADN Program

    Yeah sorry the deadline was a couple of months ago and they made the phone calls today to those who got accepted so you will have to try and apply for the fall program.
  14. Spring 2010 CSN ADN Program

    I can't remember her name but I would call the limited entry office person where you turned in the application.
  15. Spring 2010 CSN ADN Program

    Yeah I was going to say the same thing..since entry is based upon points that they then have to turn to random lottery if there is more applicants than spots for the last cut off number.
  16. Spring 2010 CSN ADN Program

    I don't think it's alphabetically because I know someone who's last name starts with R and they got their call pretty early like 10.30, 11ish so I think it might go by points. but guess it also depends whether there is just one person making phone c...
  17. Alternate for CSN Part time track.

    I also think people drop out after orientation because they give you so much information that day that's so overwhelming that some people are probably like oh no I don't think this is for me lol.
  18. Spring 2010 CSN ADN Program

    If you don't get a call tomorrow I would say call the school and ask if you are sure you had that many points and you heard people got accepted with less points than you. Perhaps there was something wrong with your application and they didn't feel i...
  19. Alternate for CSN Part time track.

    No experience being an alternate but I would say be happy that you still at least have a chance, that's more than those who didn't receive phone calls at all. So keep those fingers crossed! I believe though if they have to pick from the alternate l...
  20. CSN summer courses

    That is correct...that's what I'm taking right now, my one and only class and it's nice to just have to focus on the one class.
  21. CSN summer courses

    This is how it works for people who start in the Spring. In spring semester you take pharm and 101 and fall you are supposed to take mental health and med surg...well for full time students they give you an option of putting your name on a list to t...
  22. Spring 2010 CSN ADN Program

    Sorry you all are still waiting! I remember waiting for the phone call also but I imagine they are very close to calling you guys. I forget what the date was when I got the call last year but it was either the second last or last week of October. ...
  23. Some CSN nursing program questions

    hahaha no I'm not kidding and no that's not including pharm, pharm has it's own separate syllabus but it's not that big.
  24. Some CSN nursing program questions

    I don't believe it's tutoring, I think they just kind of ask you about your lifestyle and study habits to see where you might improve so that you do better. I know some representatives come and talk to you during one of your classes early in the pro...
  25. Some CSN nursing program questions

    I think they tell you most of this info during orientation. When you get to a certain point in first semester if you aren't doing well you are required to meet with your instructors and forced to go talk to the department (I forget what it's called)...
