  1. Is anyone STILL waiting to hear for fall 2009 entry?

    bluechick112 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I thought I'd ask if there's anyone out there who's still waiting to hear back from their schools on whether they've been accepted to a BSN (or ADN) program for fall 2009 admission! It's already near...

  2. 1st alternate...and it's driving me CrAzY!!!!

    bluechick112 replied to O2BNRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Definitely!! Actually I was supposed to start in spring 2010 anyway -- that's been my goal for a couple years now. However, I decided to apply to Samuel Merritt for fall 2009 just because I thought it...

  3. Are You Volunteering For You or Just For Show?

    bluechick112 replied to PacoUSA's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've been volunteering for years outside of a hospital setting. Once I decided on nursing I stopped volunteering so as to take prerequisites. Then I started volunteering again at a hospital and used...

  4. CSU's not accepting new students for spring 2010?

    bluechick112 replied to elfgirl's topic in California Nursing

    I'm so down for running away for a few months if we're not accepted for spring! I mean, with all the prerequisites done, why not see the world!? :) Best of luck to you and keep in mind that we're all...

  5. 1st alternate...and it's driving me CrAzY!!!!

    bluechick112 replied to O2BNRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Oh I see! I think it's just me, but I can't bare the thought of sticking around with all my prerequisites done for an entire year. If I don't get in for spring, I might die. :wink2: That's really...

  6. 1st alternate...and it's driving me CrAzY!!!!

    bluechick112 replied to O2BNRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    O2BNRN, did you say that you'll be the 1st alternate for spring or for fall? Like, your spot on the alternate list will roll over into the next semester? If so, I am SO jealous. At my school it's...

  7. 1st alternate...and it's driving me CrAzY!!!!

    bluechick112 replied to O2BNRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Mine definitely would not. I asked our admissions director if they accept people from the waitlist after classes begin and in more or less words her response was absolutely not. Although I don't...

  8. CSU's not accepting new students for spring 2010?

    bluechick112 replied to elfgirl's topic in California Nursing

    I know this question wasn't directed at me, but my pathophys class was at SBCC (santa barbara city college) and it was 3 units. It was strictly online so anyone across country can essentially take it...

  9. CNA Exam Dilemma! Help!

    bluechick112 posted a topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Hello to all current and future CNAs! I'm new to THIS forum, however I'm always using the allnurses Pre-Nursing Student forum for help with my schooling! I'm a pre-nursing student in California,...

    Oh :) Well, let me know what you decide to

  11. CSU's not accepting new students for spring 2010?

    bluechick112 replied to elfgirl's topic in California Nursing

    Does anyone know when Humboldt will be sending out their notifications? I waas hoping as early as late October. Since Humboldt is about 5 hours away from me, I would need to plan housing and such if I...

  12. Humboldt State Nursing

    bluechick112 replied to Scooby-Dooby-Doo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well, this is my personal opinion. If you've already spent the money to apply to HSU, you might as well just finish the application process. It doesnt cost anything (except the couple bucks it costs...

  13. Samuel Merritt BSN program waiting list

    bluechick112 replied to newPsychNP's topic in California Nursing

    Ack! Well, I never did end up hearing back from SMU. I still TECHNICALLY have a week to hear back from them, but of course that's quite unlikely. I'm not sure what happened since I thought for sure...

  14. What programs am I actually competitive for?

    bluechick112 replied to NurseD702's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi! I'd look into specific schools. Most of them lay out their prerequisite courses (which extend past Micro, Anatomy, Physio, Human Development, Stats, and Nutrition) and how they grade applicants...

  15. Humboldt State Nursing

    bluechick112 replied to Scooby-Dooby-Doo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well, I just sent in my additional application information to the HSU nursing department (copy of the app, letter from my manager, unofficial transcripts, etc) so I guess it's official! I wonder when...

  16. ???which nursing schools require students to take TEAS exam???

    bluechick112 replied to Jenny102938's topic in General Students

    Very interesting. I've taken both the TEAS and the NET. I'm looking for schools that still take the NET. I heard it's being slowly replaced by the TEAS as time goes on...I know the private school I...

  17. Background Check

    bluechick112 replied to aspiring79's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was just thinking and maybe if you looked at a school which requires a personal essay it would help. Atleast then you could talk about how it turned your life around and how you really learned from...

  18. ???which nursing schools require students to take TEAS exam???

    bluechick112 replied to Jenny102938's topic in General Students

    I'm in Nor Cal and I know most of our private schools don't require the TEAS. Some require the NET, though. The NET was by far wayyyyyyyy easier than the TEAS. Anyone know schools that still require...

  19. Background Check

    bluechick112 replied to aspiring79's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi, I know that this has been something I've been discussing with a friend on and off while we've been finishing our prerequisites for nursing. Neither of us have a DUI on our records, but we know...

  20. Did you volunteer before NS to "spruce up" your resume?

    bluechick112 replied to Chris99mu's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I did too. I have a relatively low GPA, so I had to do all I could to "spruce up my resume".Plus, once job hunting, I bet it looks better if you have that experience

  21. C+ Grades in the Science Prereqs

    bluechick112 replied to LadyL's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wait, this rules you out of several programs? Most programs I've seen allow C's as long as you didn't get a C-. If you find yourself sitting around doing nothing waiting to get into a program, re-take...

  22. 1st alternate...and it's driving me CrAzY!!!!

    bluechick112 replied to O2BNRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Uggh you're lucky that they admit you even after the semester/classes start. Mine specificially said they will NOT admit anyone from the waitlist after classes start on the 31st. I personally find...

  23. Where on earth are CA students with a low GPA(3.3) applying!?!?!

    bluechick112 replied to ChanelCinq's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    OH! and good luck on the TEAS!!! If you have any questions about THAT you can PM me too! I took it

  24. Where on earth are CA students with a low GPA(3.3) applying!?!?!

    bluechick112 replied to ChanelCinq's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My suggestion is getting to know important people. Volunteer, get hospital jobs, do something to meet managers in the area so they'll know you when you need a job as an RN. For example, I know the...

  25. 1st alternate...and it's driving me CrAzY!!!!

    bluechick112 replied to O2BNRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That gives me so much needed hope. I've basically given up since there's only about a week or so left to hear. But if it happens I'll post IMMEDIATELY...like even before I tell my family lol
