First off this is going to be long, but I really need some help from someone other than the Ivy Tech staff. Last spring I decided to leave University of Evansville after completing 101 credits. It was a major life decision but I finally knew what I wanted. After being a CNA for 5 years, I knew I wanted to be a nurse. So I applyed to Ivy Tech and found out that I needed ANP 1 and 2 before I could start. I was a little dissappointed since this would set me back a year to take only these two classes, but I dealt with it. So now I am enrolled in ANP 1 and Micro. I met with an advisor last week, but was told that since I haven't been to a Mandatory Nursing Session, I couldn't take my TEAS. So I tried to set up an appointment for a session and the next one they have open is APRIL 3RD!!! The deadline for applying to fall 2009 is APRIL 1st.... so now I can't even apply becaue I have to sit through this meeting first. They said I could call a week before each meeting to see if there have been any cancellations, but that's not a very good chance. I'm really at a loss as to what to do. I do not want to wait til Spring 2010 to even start nursing. I have been in college for four years now and am really ready to just start working. I guess i'm just pretty stressed because I feel as if I gave up stuff to do this and now I can't even apply. (not to brag but I do have a 4.0 gpa and am bringing in a 3.69 from UE) So I'm not worried about not getting in. ANY advice would really really be appreciated. And THANK you soo much if you read all this. I'm originally from Iowa so I was thinking maybe moving closer to home if i could get into a nursing program somewhere. Maybe the Terre Haute campus?? but then i need a new apartment. Grr. It's just so frustrating. Please help.
