  1. Towson BSN Waitlist.. How Long to Wait?!

    jtk57 replied to jtk57's topic in Maryland Nursing

    It would be awesome if they would contact me in June and let me know, even though I am anticipating the worst case, which would be they call me on August 15th after I have already lined up my loans,...

  2. Towson BSN Waitlist.. How Long to Wait?!

    jtk57 replied to jtk57's topic in Maryland Nursing

    TU does not advertise the option of a "2nd degree" option in Nursing per se, but if you have completed all of the pre-requisites listed in the application form, you may apply to the program and start...

    jtk57 replied to Agrippa's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I was planning on mailing mine back in along with my medical history

  4. University of Maryland Traditional BSN Fall Program: Any idea when we will hear back?

    jtk57 replied to Agrippa's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I am actually in the CNL program so it would be for graduate loans. Of course the trade off is that I get to pay twice as much for many of the same classes... Didn't mean to insert anything into the...

  5. University of Maryland Traditional BSN Fall Program: Any idea when we will hear back?

    jtk57 replied to Agrippa's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Well, I tend to be a more fixed rate type of person, so I was considering the Grad PLUS direct loans from the department of education to make up for what the Staffords don't cover for me. My...

  6. University of Maryland Traditional BSN Fall Program: Any idea when we will hear back?

    jtk57 replied to Agrippa's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I totally hear you. I got much the same and my family is coming to terms with the fact that once my education is finished, we will have what amounts to a new car payment every month for quite some...

  7. University of Maryland Traditional BSN Fall Program: Any idea when we will hear back?

    jtk57 replied to Agrippa's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I found out about this website Chegg.com when I was searching for a way to save money on my Nutrition text. You go online and rent the books you need for the semester, and when the semester is done,...

  8. UMAB SON Pass/Fail Pre-Semester Math Test?

    jtk57 posted a topic in Maryland Nursing

    I will be starting in the fall as a CNL student at UMAB and I wanted to derive any info I can from people here who have been through UMAB Nursing. Is there a "right-off-the-bat" test on basic math...

  9. UMAB SON Pass/Fail Pre-Semester Math Test?

    jtk57 replied to jtk57's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Thank you very much for the information. I assume that both programs will have similar testing because they share so much in other respects as well. I will definitely track down a text of some sort...

  10. Stevenson University?

    jtk57 replied to terps97's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Congratulations on your graduating! Like I said in a previous post, I thought Stevenson seemed like a fine option if that was where I ended up. It's good to hear directly from someone who went there...

  11. Stevenson University?

    jtk57 replied to terps97's topic in Maryland Nursing

    JennyA, You say that you are applying for the Spring CNL program at UMAB; you should be aware that it is significantly more expensive than the BSN program, even though many of the classes are the...

  12. Low GPA

    jtk57 replied to sclement23's topic in General Nursing

    I was also accepted into a competitive program (seems like they all are nowadays with 100's of applicants, most of them qualified). I did not have a great GPA (sub 3.0 in undergraduate Science,...

  13. UMAB CNL Program; out hanging on a limb.

    jtk57 posted a topic in Maryland Nursing

    I applied to three different nursing programs. Waitlisted at Towson, accepted to Stevenson.. still no word from UMAB CNL after 3 months and counting. Like a lot of folks I have been OCD about checking...

  14. UMAB CNL Program; out hanging on a limb.

    jtk57 replied to jtk57's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Hi *ac*.. Yeah I quickly accepted the spot in the program; it was my first choice and to say I am stoked would be an understatement (well, with everything but the student loans, that is). I was warned...

  15. UMaryland CNL Program

    jtk57 replied to Chris33's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Hi MissM, 1) Did any of you attend the information session? - I did not attend the information session. I think it would have been a good idea, but between work, school, and kids, I just did not have...

  16. UMAB CNL Program; out hanging on a limb.

    jtk57 replied to jtk57's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I mentioned on another thread that I finally got word back from the program and was accepted. I do still wish that there was a bit better communication between the school and the applicants, but I...

  17. UMaryland CNL Program

    jtk57 replied to Chris33's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Hi Chris, I appreciate that! I was starting to lose hope when I read and heard of many people getting their decisions while I was still waiting. I was ready to move on with a different school and I...

  18. UMaryland CNL Program

    jtk57 replied to Chris33's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Hey Guys, Well I guess it was worth the wait because I checked my status for the 1000th time this morning and I was accepted to the CNL program. Very exciting and I can hardly wait to meet all my new...

  19. Towson or Stevenson

    jtk57 replied to Brit1114's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I am a prospective student as well, and I am considering attending Stevenson because I was accepted there ( I am a TU Biology undergrad). The Towson nursing program is a great regional program and I...

  20. UMaryland CNL Program

    jtk57 replied to Chris33's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Congratulations Chris! That's great news. I'm still awaiting thumbs up or thumbs down. Hopefully I'll be seeing you on campus if things go my way. Congratulations

  21. UMaryland CNL Program

    jtk57 replied to Chris33's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I had the hardest time trying to track down the log in site to check my status, so I use this shortcut. I assume it will work for you too....

  22. Evening/Weekend RN programs

    jtk57 replied to Dancinagain's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Stevenson University, the former Villa Julie, used to have a night / weekend only option that was pitched towards working adults. They didn't get enough interest, partially because it was a 3 year...

  23. UMaryland CNL Program

    jtk57 replied to Chris33's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Hi Chris, I am also waiting on word from UMAB about the CNL program. Like a lot of people here I have been checking the online SURFS system multiple times through the day and thought when I went...
