130 isn't too bad...now I'm hearing a minimum of 200 for pretty much every program I've asked, all the way up to 400 for some (silently crying as I type that 🙂 LOL) I haven't started studying yet, but I made the outline already. And I wa...

I keep reading about how many more applications all programs have received in the last 2 years; now I'm kicking myself for not applying sooner. Though, I'm trying to stay positive. Newman has a reputation for having difficult interviews (specifi...

Thanks @CamillusRN, study content is always helpful. @txgypsymurse, have you heard anything yet?

My internet crashed tonight 😐 I'm gonna try to get my application tomorrow.

That's what I'm thinking too...because no one has gotten a rejection email yet (that we know of).

I got the same email...under review...save dates.

Nothing yet here...

Not telling them their baby was decapitated during child birth is indefensible. There is nothing they can say to defend that action.

No, the bottom line is a baby died. And I said nothing about anyone's license being revoked. Those are your words...

Same. I didn't apply until 8/12. We're stragglers. Lmaoo. Hopefully they won't hold it against us. LOL. We shall see.

I applied...

The people who are saying they need more evidence of wrong doing just blows my mind. They refused to allow the parents to hold the baby, then proceeded to swaddled the baby and PROP the head up. What other evidence do you need? That is not the behavi...

The email we used to apply

Wait listed! Which I’m pretty happy about it since I still had outstanding prereqs when I interviewed. LOL. Congratulations to those who got in!!

Yeah, some pods allowed it, others didn’t. Did anyone happen to ask when we should expect to hear back?

Did they allow you guys to ask questions if you got done answering the question early?

Interesting for sure. I think it was well organized. I was expecting a lot of technical issues but there really was not. What did you think?

No, I can’t give you insight into the interview- that wouldn’t be fair to others. What I can say is that it’s not nearly as bad as you think. You will both do fine. Sending positive vibes your way!! M

Congratulations!

I got an interview for July 13 and so did my friend. I'm a little surprised since this was the very first application I put in, but also extremely excited...and nervous more than anything.

I spoke to the program director via email of a CRNA program, and she told me it was not an issue and to go ahead and apply. The requirement is that you have a BSN from a accredited university- that ADN degree does not even matter. Unfortunately UMKC ...

I could not agree more. I secured a critical care position a month before graduation. I was the ONLY person with a job. How? I relocated. I wasn't about to be that one person 6 months out of school without a job...nope...I got bills to pay! I applied...

Ok, so another update as to how my nursing career is progressing... I have been working in the Medical Intensive Care Unit for 2 years now (September in my anniversary month). I currently hold my CCRN certification, which I sat for back in January. I...

Yes! I took a position at a large academic facility in their MICU right out of school. I have been there 9 months now, and am really enjoying it. I am just beginning to study for my CCRN certification, so when my 1 year anniversary comes around, I ca...

I tested today in Columbia @ 8 am...we will see how long it takes for it to update with results...I checked Pearson Vue Trick, but status did no say "delivery successful" so don't think I can trust the "good pop up" notice just yet. BON not updated y...
