You can do it!! I took A&P I & II and Micro all at the same time. I don't have any children, and I wasn't working at the time. There was still PLENTY of free time. With good planning and...
To those who didn't get in for the spring, don't give up!!! Keep trying if this is what you really want!! You can still apply for the fall semester. (Tip: get some health care experience. I think this...
There are 2 nurses that I work with who told me they failed out of nursing school the first time, but the second time they rocked it! They are 2 of the best nurses with whom I work on our
Tiger95, I'm sorry you didn't get in. I was REALLY hoping to have you as a future classmate, but I wish you the best at Trident. I know several people who go there who enjoy the nursing program and...
You are right in thinking that many people have this reason as motivation for becoming a nurse. Although that is a great reason, you have to convey that to the admissions committee in a unique way. I...
The commute to downtown in the morning depends on what time you leave. The drive is between 20-25 minutes at 6am from the Ashley Phosphate area. There is minimal traffic at that time though. If you...
I currently live in Charleston (actually the very top of Charleston County). I moved here a couple years ago after I got married because my husband has a job here. I love it! Not a huge fan of the...
When I wrote to them for info last spring, they told me that the average GPA for admitted students was a 3.4 but the range was from 3.0 - 4.0. She didn't specify which GPA that was, but my assumption...
I'm really hoping you will all hear very, very soon!! I can appreciate how difficult it can be to wait. The time for priority to hear back was "by Sept. 30th". I heard on the 21st. Hopefully you will...
Congrats!! I'm sure you are very excited and thankful that your hard work has paid off! I got my acceptance letter yesterday as well and my neighbor (at least one) saw me drop all of the rest of the...
I would suggest that she shadow people in all areas of the medical arena if she really isn't sure what she wants to do: MD, DO, PA, NP, RN, PT, OT, RT, etc. That way she will at least be able to...
I'm curious to see how the new 3 out of 4 science requirement will change the applicant pool as well. When I emailed them this past February about the program, they said that most people didn't...
It seems from previous posts that they may send out letters a couple days earlier. It may be different this year since they changed the requirements for the application. That may have increased the...
I was in a somewhat similar situation a couple years ago. I volunteered for 4 hrs/wk at a local hospital to gain some experience while I was working in a retail store. I found all of the information...
Just curious to see if anyone else is applying. I've had some difficulty with my online application sending the reference forms to my references. How do you feel about there no longer being an...
I'm trying to get a jump start to prepare for applications when they become available in July and am wondering what the essay is about. Is it just "why do you want to be a nurse?" or is there more...
I actually just emailed a lady at the ACC BSN program yesterday and asked her some questions. They accept 60 people for the spring semester and an additional 60 people for the fall semester. The...
