    sas818 replied to BeckyL.'s topic in General Nursing

    If you are already taking your CNA class, I'd recommend getting a job as a CNA to improve your chances of getting in to UWO (although it's not necessary-I didn't have CNA experience and I got in)....

    sas818 replied to JCBJLT's topic in General Nursing

    Everyone that didn't get in or was wait listed...keep your heads up! Most people don't get in on the 1st try. Don't give up and as people have mentioned, talk to Sue about increasing your chances...

    Rn, Good luck at boot camp! Any advice for the 1st three months of classes? We start Sept. 30th. I guess what I'm wondering is how many hours per day do you really have to put in...they have me...

  9. Going back to school for a nursing degree. Good idea?

    sas818 replied to Ted D's topic in General Nursing

    Don't give up because of your undergrad GPA. I just got accepted into an accelerated BS to BSN program, and my undergrad GPA was a 2.8. I just made sure to get A's on all of my pre-req classes, and...
