  1. TWU Fast Track Summer '09

    jtbrass replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    Hey guys, I haven't been in here in a while. Regarding the food situation, I'll probably just be bringing leftovers with me most days, as they said we'll have refrigerators and microwaves available....

  2. Where do TWU Dallas Nurses Live?

    jtbrass replied to utstudent03's topic in Texas Nursing

    If money's not an issue, then go for it. For me, it is. That's the only thing keeping me from moving out there. Rent's like three times what it is out

  3. TWU Fast Track Summer '09

    jtbrass replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    That's exactly what I was thinking. I can study, sleep or do my make-up on the train- all better than having to deal with rush hour DFW traffic. The commute on the train is only about an hour from...

  4. TWU Fast Track Summer '09

    jtbrass replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    Aggie, what I would suggest is for you to search for the classes you'll be taking via Webadvisor. This might give you an idea of when those particular classes will be scheduled during the Fall...

  5. TWU Fast Track Summer '09

    jtbrass replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    I agree that the schedule looks pretty intense. I don't have a choice other than to work so I'm pretty much going to plan on working twelve hour days on Saturdays and Sundays. There goes my social...

  6. TWU Fast Track Summer '09

    jtbrass replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    I called today and they told me that having it started would render me "temporarily compliant." I thought it was strange that we were expected to start getting them five months before knowing whether...

  7. TWU Fast Track Summer '09

    jtbrass replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    Okay, so I made an appointment today for my immunizations and was told the last shot of the Hep B series wouldn't be until 7 or 8 months from now- obviously not within the time that school starts. Is...

    jtbrass replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    The fast track that starts this summer is at the Dallas

  9. TWU Fast Track Summer '09

    jtbrass replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    I actually live an hour away without traffic. What I'm thinking about doing is taking the TRE. I would still have two hours a day of commuting but they will be on the train where I don't have to...

  10. TWU Fast Track Summer '09

    jtbrass replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    For those of you starting this summer, where do you live? I have a huge dilemma because I live in southwest Fort Worth and am trying to decide if I should continue living here for free and commute...

  11. TWU Fast Track Summer '09

    jtbrass replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    We have until the 25th to accept or decline the offer. They may be waiting until then to see if any additional spots open up before sending "rejection"

  12. Curious about debit from accelerated BSN programs

    jtbrass replied to woodlandstar's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Jbeau said 4 semesters, not 4 years, so it is what OP was talking about. I'm starting an accelerated program this summer and what makes it accelerated is that the four upper division semesters of...

  13. TWU Fast Track Summer '09

    jtbrass replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    Jspacegirl, did you work while you were in the program or do you know anyone who did? The information packet I received today really discouraged employment, but I don't have a choice unless I want to...

  14. TWU Fast Track Summer '09

    jtbrass replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    Goopsy- My GPA was either a 3.9 or 4.0, depending on whether they considered a "B" I got in History, or took my AP score instead, (I took the course at TCU because they require a 4 on the AP for...

    jtbrass replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    Prettyladie, call them first thing in the morning and find out what they're refering to. Do you have any classes that were repeated? If so, they may have overlooked the second time you took

    jtbrass replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    Congrats, Fanshawe! I got the same email!!! I saw the subject line and was thinking, "no way!" I'm so

  17. TWU Fast Track Summer '09

    jtbrass replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    Okay, I just looked at the email again and noticed the first sentence that I had originally skipped over. I guess I should pay more attention to detail.

  18. TWU Fast Track Summer '09

    jtbrass replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    Oh, I forgot to ask. Did you all get the email about the Computer Literacy Competency? I'm wondering what you're all planning to do to satisfy it. I'm hoping there's a class I can take at TCC...

    Looks good- kind of House-ish but I'm too poor for

  20. TWU Fast Track Summer '09

    jtbrass replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    When you guys call to ask about the time frame for acceptance letters, who do you talk to? I'm wondering if you're speaking with the nursing school advisors or the admissions

  21. TWU Fast Track Summer '09

    jtbrass replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    Okay, that's one of the things I was wondering. I know they give a four-tenths GPA boost to those who have completed a certain number of credits at TWU but I was wondering if it capped out at 4.0....

  22. TWU Fast Track Summer '09

    jtbrass replied to goopsy's topic in Texas Nursing

    Okay, so fast track finds out one week before traditional? That doesn't make any sense since if you aren't accepted into fast track you're automatically entered into the traditional pool. One week...

  23. Where do TWU Dallas Nurses Live?

    jtbrass replied to utstudent03's topic in Texas Nursing

    If all goes as planned, I will be starting at TWU in Dallas this summer. I live in southwest Fort Worth, (Near Hulen/TCU area), and have decided to commute. I thought about the drive five times a...

  24. TWU Fast Track 2009

    jtbrass replied to tlaspires2rn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm wondering if anyone has an idea when acceptance letters are mailed out for this. I also applied and haven't really heard anything
