Hey, Yes it is by a point system. Just because one is invited doesn't grant them admission. There is still a process that day after they speak about the program to meet with a counselor down the hall which they will line up according to your points. Next that counselor will check your profile and if you qualify you choose your day. Shortly after they send you over to the next building to register. Good luck!

Katrina526 & Pompo, Good morning! Happy New Year to all! I start my NURS 130 for spring this week and I noticed on the calendar on angel it says we have a pre-test on math. YIKES! I wonder if it will count or is it a practice test? I am so scared---did you guys take it already, and if so if you don't mind is it basic math, conversions, or like algebra? Any information is appreciated. Thanks so much.

Thank you!:thankya:

Thanks. I think they see if we have our courses done before they tell us to take the test. I do have all my pre- reqs done but not at Hudson.

Hi guys! Does anyone know if we can still start Christ even if we don't have any credits at Hudson but have all pre-reqs done? Thanks.

Thank you so much! I wish you the best as well!! I did schedule myself to take the test but now I have to figure out a way to miss class cause its on a Wednesday at 5pm. By any chance would you happen to know if we can still go to Christ even if we don't have any credits from Hudson? I have all my pre-reqs done but not from Hudson. Happy Thanksgiving! Hope you had a great and safe evening!:hrnsmlys:

I have so many back up plans!! LOL.... Good for you I wish you the best today and tomorrow. School nurses do need experience and that certificate is also a year. I also heard they want them to have a bachelor's. I saw on NLN that there is a test date available. I am going to register later today.

Thank you, you're so helpful! I am a transfer student and have all my pre-reqs done. I took classes this semester to establish a GPA to apply to their program. I already handed in my consideration form and unofficial transcript. Now I guess I wait to hear back from them???? Now suspense begins. Although, Trinitas is not the only school I applied to. I applied to Bergen and Christ. I was accepted to Mountainside but was put on a waiting list for next summer. My goal is to get into a program this spring. Time is just being wasted away.

Vinster, I get what you are saying but now there's a letter for consideration that we must fill out and they are being accepted from today - 11/30th. I just don't understand how these classes are filled already if we are applying to start in January.?>?>! I apologize if I am not understanding correctly. I appreciate your clarification and postings.

Agida...that's all I have to say!

You're so sweet! I would like psychiatric nursing but who knows, once were in we might be influenced by some other specialty. I think that's so endearing how you want to give back and inflluencing every person that comes in contact in your life. The sky is the limit! By the way, ditto to your last sentence!! I hear you word for word..lol!

Hey guys I have a quick question. I applied for the spring 2012 and just for the heck of it checked on webadvisor and all of Trinitas' classes were filled. How is that possible if the nursing 130 form for consideration starts today? I am so confused. I then looked at Muhlenberg and they have open classes. I know people are starting to register for spring but where would that put all the nursing applicants that have finished all their pre-reqs?

Wow! That's amazing and you must have incredible patience! God Bless! I've always wanted to be in the healthcare world. I love learning medicine and anything that has to do with that field. Naturally, things didn't go the way I planned and our life's obligations got in my way. I worked for a world investment center in headquartered in Jersey City while I was taking classes to get my pre-reqs. I knew I couldn't manage both so I resigned from my job and started working at a psychiatric hospital in the U.R. department -- since finance is what I knew. OMG! I loved it. My department was like my family. They were RNs and they encouraged me even more to be a nurse and hopefully one day work with them. So from there I've been obtaining my credits and working there until I had two back surgeries and eventually I was laid off from work. So after extensive rehabilitation and will power I decided to do healthcare marketing. I did that for a year and wasn't too thrilled of how the physicians were let's say unprofessional.... With my luck, I was in an accident a couple yrs ago and now I am back to where I was--enormous intolerable pain. I am waiting to be scheduled for surgery but I refuse to let anything get in my way. So here I am today, taking courses at UCC to establish a GPA to get into Trinitas, waiting for NLN PAX RN to post Christ, and anxiously waiting on BCC. Oh did I mention I am frazzled...lol! So nursing to me is more than a professional nurse. I want to reach out and educate people and let them know they are not alone. I am not a soul healer but I listen, have patience, and believe I have the desire and compassion to be an outstanding nurse. Every day I see new reasons why I need to be a nurse.

Keep up the positive flow! You are so inspirational!! What do you do if you don't mind me asking?

Oh guys...tick tock dock!! As far as the loans, I think you can apply thru webadvisor too under financial aid or something like that. I am already CPR certified, got thru Chilton Hospital. This will be expensive but this is our investment.
