  1. UW BSN

    j450n replied to bina11's topic in Washington Nursing

    Is anyone else taking summer classes? I'm pretty excited/nervous/anxious. It's a whole amalgamation of

  2. Seattle U BSN

    j450n replied to bina11's topic in Washington Nursing

    I had one prerequisite left to take at the time of application, and it was statistics. I think it helps to get all your sciences out of the way first. I also had a B.A. as well. Ultimately, I think my...

  3. Accelerated BSN programs in Washington?

    j450n replied to waRN_:)'s topic in Washington Nursing

    I think it's so much because they're techically charging tuition at the graduate level. It's pretty much the same pre-licensure curriculum that GEPN students go through before they begin their nursing...

  4. Public Colleges vs. Private Universities for Nursing School

    j450n replied to an0nymous's topic in General Nursing

    I think most people will say that it doesn't really matter where you go as a nurse, because three years down the road...people will look at your experience as a nurse rather than what school you went...

  5. Accelerated BSN programs in Washington?

    j450n replied to waRN_:)'s topic in Washington Nursing

    Yeah, UW just started their ABSN and admitted only 16 people. I think next year, they said they would increase the number of spots because they're putting their GEPN program on hold. It doesn't...

  6. UW BSN vs. SU BSN

    j450n replied to sarahm24's topic in Washington Nursing

    I've heard the same thing as well...and UW's ranking is more for the graduate programs like you mentioned. However, I think the BSN programs are somewhat similar across the board, and each school will...

  7. UW BSN vs. SU BSN

    j450n replied to sarahm24's topic in Washington Nursing

    I am in the exact same predicament as you are. Leaning towards UW just because of the difference in tuition and because of its reputation. Although, I like SU's location and I like their focus on...

  8. UW BSN

    j450n replied to bina11's topic in Washington Nursing

    Got my acceptance just now in the mail! I didn't think it would come so early! But the updates on the SON blog seemed like they had mailed them out on Friday already. Wow...I'm so humbled and...

  9. Seattle U BSN

    j450n replied to bina11's topic in Washington Nursing

    Hi mocha, My prereq GPA for Seattle U was about a 3.7. At the time of application, I had 2.5 years of CNA experience, student government/community service work, and my personal statement really...

  10. Seattle U BSN

    j450n replied to bina11's topic in Washington Nursing

    I think so, especially since this is a post-bacc degree for me. It seems like schools are more apt to give grants to first-degree students or people contining on to their master's degree. This is sort...

  12. Seattle U BSN

    j450n replied to bina11's topic in Washington Nursing

    Congratulations! I wonder when they're going to send out financial aid letters. If I decide to go to Seattle U, I'm not sure how I'm going to pay for it since it's my

  13. Seattle U BSN

    j450n replied to bina11's topic in Washington Nursing

    Thanks to both! I got a large envelope in the mail today. This is my second-degree. I was also accepted an accelerated nursing program at Drexel University in Philadelphia. Seattle U and UW are my top...

    As a matter-of-fact, I do.

  17. Nursing Assistant Certified and Registered - Do I need both?

    j450n posted a topic in Washington Nursing

    Hi everyone, I've been a CNA for a couple of years now and I've renewed both my CNA license and nursing assistant registration (NAR). I never know if I should renew my NAR, but I do it anyway to be...

  18. UW BSN

    j450n replied to bina11's topic in Washington Nursing

    There was definitely a lot to consider and I definitely felt a little bit rushed for time. Anyway, I guess it's out of our control now. Hopefully, we'll receive good news in

  19. Transfer SU to GU

    j450n replied to seamel's topic in Washington Nursing

    I understand how that goes, and I wish you well on your nursing endeavors. Thanks for sharing. The one thing that worries about Seattle U is the cost. Tuition will be an issue for me, as well as being...

  20. Transfer SU to GU

    j450n replied to seamel's topic in Washington Nursing

    Out of curosity ( and I hope you don't mind me asking), I applied to SU and I am curious to hear about your experience thus far. Is the program not what you expected, hence your plan to transfer?...

  21. Applying to UW BSN program this yr-any tips?

    j450n replied to radbird's topic in Washington Nursing

    I am stressing myself out too. I guess I am just going to go and put my best foot forward and whatever happens...happens. :) Good luck to you guys and don't forget your photo

  22. UW BSN

    j450n replied to bina11's topic in Washington Nursing

    Perhaps the both of you guys are part of the lucky few that are automatically admissible and don't have to write the proctored essay. Don't give up
