Thank you for your recommendation. So far, I only found good things about GCU nursing!

Thank you very much for your reply. She visited the school and liked it a lot. Now it's up to us to decide. I know she would have a priority over transfer students which makes it appealing more:) I don't really like that school is going throught lots of changes but I think it's due to be fairly new and really fast expanding school. That's great that having a high GPA would help with scholarships. I've never visited the school but seeing their add on TV every night scares me a little. Good school doesn't need advertisement. What do you think about that?

My daughter planning to go GCU for BSN. I'm so scared of loan that we will get after 4 years of school. Her GPA is not that high so not much of scholarship and based on our income we do not qualify for any financial aid. Don't know what do to? She will also live on campus so it's even more

Im very happy for you, CONGRATULAITOIN!!!:w00t:

Very great topic. I have 40 days till my pinning. Can't wait to be done!!!!!

Congratulaiton. You are so fortunate. I'm graduaitng this May and hope to get my job soon too:)

If I would be the hiring manager, I like your answer since you told the truth and did not make any stories. Good luck, hope you'll get the job

Hi guys, I'm finishing my 3rd semester at SacState and love the school. Specially after moving to a new building and having place to ourself. Hope you will get the spot!

Such a great post! A lot of info!!! Good luck in your school: in good and bad days. You'll be a great student I can tell it just by reading your posts. I am starting my school on Jan 25!!!

Dear DEALSMOM! thank you so much for the info. Somehow I didn't know that something will be on Jan 19, I only knew about 20, the orientation. Of course I will bring something. I will cook, not sure what but for sure something delicious. I am so excited or actually, more scared... Can you tell if you, honestly, like the program and the teachers and the students? Are you guys support each others? I just red imail saying that there is a test on the second day of school. How is it possible? I don't know what to study. I have so much ??? and I hope Nursing is for me, oh... Thank you so much for inf

wow, you have good plans, I am sure that one of them will work out for you. I know that prereqs don't have exparation date in CSUS, so maybe your Spanish, too. I wanted to go to Samuel for MSNP and it's little over $100K, just for tuition. I decided to go without spending that much, however it might be a longer road. So, I understand your frastration. It's a big news about Sutter. Are you sure? It would be so nice if they will accept students again. I heard it's a great program. My friend applied to SCC for Spring 2010, didn't get in, but she didn't know about Sutter. Good luck with TEAS. It's a huge deal if you're going to apply to SCUS, since they are point system based. Marry Christmas!

Hi greatpyr mom! Congratulation for finishing your prereq.!!! :yeah:I was there not a while ago and just got into SacState for Spring 2010. I know what you mean about SCC and ARC. The staff is simply rood. I was taking my prereq in SCC and ARC. I also know about Samuel Merrit, they are so nice and they should be for their tuition fees... If you talked to them it's mean you have a bachelor already? With your GPA, why don't you apply to SacState. It is much easier to get there than to any of JC. I know it from my experience and the staff from SacState nursing department is just awsome. You don't need to take TEAS for college untill you get there, but if you want to apply to Delta in Stockton, then you need, but you can take it from there. If you still want to take (even you don't need it) TEAS, let me know I'll tell you where in Sacramento you can take it.

Sorry, guys but it was COUNTERCLOCKWISE, 100% sure. Virginia2009, you're very welcome and good luck in applying and of course, in getting IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also, through the whole English part, there was no colon(punctuation), not even once.

Hi, I think you have to have 15 posts and then I can send you a private email. Why are you taking TEAS, where are you applying?

Jaimemac, sounds like you have a good plan. I would probably do the same for masters. Injoy your time with a family this Christmas season.

Wow, you got into a college? I'm sure you'll save a LOT of money. I got a Paralegal degree from a college and it was sooooooooooo cheep. Of course RN is more expensive, but still. Congratulation! How many times did you apply? Are you plannning to go for BSN later?

Congratulation:yeah::yeah:. Sorry, can't give you advice since I am also starting in Spring 2010. Best of luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and happy hard studying:jester:!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Yuriy, CONGRATULATION:specs:!!! It's great to know more people before the school starts. I also didn't know about this forum until recently. I got here in October. At some point, after reading some posts about our future career, I started to think if I've done a right thing. For me it's also a career changea and I got scared after reading what kind of life some nurses have. But for sure, we got into the school with a great program. I think school starts around January 22-24. So, injoy your family and kids while you can. That's what I'm planning to do!!!

DON'T GIVE UP. KEEP TRYING. Your parents should be proud of you for trying that hard. I would be.

Wow, everyone, thank you so much for sharing. I will post my first day also, and I start in January.

Hey, Remi. How are you doing? I forgot that you need to have 15 posts to email. I will give you my personal email so we can talk. About my prereq. I also was doing summer school (2 classes) and took 1 class this fall. What I meant that I started last fall and this fall I applied for the program, so I am not that good. But anyway, we will survive nursing school. Our poor kids, feel sorry for them. I wonder if there is anyone else who applied to Sacramento State? People where are you?

Hey, Getting Started, sorry for your GPA, it is bad, but it all depends how quick you want to get there. Since you previous degree is not related then you would need to take all of the prereqs, right? In my school in CA they won't even consider you if your GPA less than 3.8, however they only check your prereq. classes (about 8 total), so if you do good on them, then you have all the chances of getting where you want. I wish you to get there one day. Good luck.:loveya:

Yea, classmates!!! This Fall semester is my first one at SacState. I love the campus. Huge trees all around. We have less than 2 months untill it all begins. I just sent you a PM:loveya:

Hey Remi, I am attending!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congratulation, are we going to be a classmates? Such a great Thanksgiving we are going to have!!!!!!!!!!! and then our life or no-life will begin. Do you know anyone? I don't. I met one guy and one girl while taking TEAS, but not sure if they made it. Are you excited a lot? Did you take CPR class? I am not and schould find one soon. Well, actually I want to find the one that would be offered at the end of December or in January, so it will cover 2 years of school (from beginning to the end) I am really glad to meet you here before the school begin. CONGRATULATION and happy Thanksgiving.:yeah::yeah::yeah::yeah:

Hey, I got in. I am so happy. Who else is starting in Spring of 2010? Now I am looking for CPR class, anybody else?
