I would wait until Orientation to purchase books because I heard they are changing books. Once school starts you don't a bunch of nursing books you don't need or can't resale. But if your are very anxious go to Southwest online bookstore to see if th...

I think you may have started in the Spring semester? The Fall semester is done differently, we could not do anything until after Orientation in August. After orientation we had to email the dean our permits and she would reply back saying it was ok t...

You are at the right place, you are going behind the nursing annex, I go there and can't remember the name of the building(pretty sad). No you won't have to pick your schedule on Friday. You will get an opporunity to pick your clinicial day after Ori...

Oh yeah you all won't be able to register for class until after Orientation. You can view the class schedule if you want too just to get an idea on when your classes will start. Don't buy your books at the bookstore, too dang blasted high!! Go to ama...

The nursing building is behind the "fake nursing hospital" on the Union Campus. Congrats on the ones that was accepted. Enjoy your summer break, no need to try to get material to study up on because you will need this time to get other things in orde...

LOL!! Yes it does teaches patience or teaches you how to bite your nails off from waiting! They only send letters to the applicants that wasn't accepted.

Look for a phone call around the very end of March and maybe the begining of April.

I loved the book, I swear my teacher used some of those questions from the first edition on one of our exams! You can buy either one because most of the information is the same but I think with the second edition you get a CD. Its worth the money bec...

Good luck to all the newbies, middle agies(2nd and 3rd semester), and the oldies(4th semester)!!

Thats a good score being that you bubbled in some of your answers. To be honest with you I didn't know a thing about the NLN until some classmates of mines told me about it, I didn't study for it. I didn't even know Southwest required an exam(shows y...

"I'm wondering if I finish my BSN if it's even plausible for me to think that I would be able to transition to PharmD, MD, PA, or DDS (programs). I won't lie, I have my eye on PharmD due to time. I also have a general interest in almost every special...

WOW!!! Well hopefully it will help because I heard Adult Health I is hard. I'm trying to prepare myself but I can't stop relaxing!! I forgot what it feels like to be relaxed:p

First semester!!! I have Adulth Health the first part of next semester, now I wonder should I have signed up for OB instead. I want something fun!!!

YAY!! It does feel good to sit and relax. I don't even know what to do with myself because my nerves has been so frazzled these last few months with studying, working, studying, no life, studying, working, studying, exam, studying, exam, studying, wo...

Shoot, I would apply if I were you. Your scores are good but it depends on the other applicants scores as well. Take the NLN and then go from there because you could blow that exam out the water which could boost your overall score. Good Luck.

That's great! Now all you need is the special application to apply for the program and your letter. Looks like you got in to me based on your scores. Keep us posted when you decide to apply & when they call you to tell you have been accepted!!

Thanxs! And thanxs again on the advice. I will be buying a filing cabinet to store information like that. And congrats on your last semester, you made it!! If you have anymore advice please feel free share it! LOL!

You're very welcome! And thanxs! Yes I know this semester will have me very busy. I will keep everyone posted because I understand being the person in your shoes researching schools. Trying to find infromation about certain courses from students. I'l...

They take the overall GPA, plus the NLN pre-admission exam score divided by 10, then add the QPA(an A is worth 16 points, a B is worth 12 points and a C is worth 8 points)from the science courses you have taken. For example if this was someone scores...

You're right the exam is only 10% of your final score. I was talking about my test score was only worth 10points because I made a 100. Sorry for the misunderstanding. Sometimes I don't proof read.

You're welcome:-) Nope I haven't graduated yet. I heard good things about the program as well. I haven't even started LOL!! School starts at the end of this month.

You're welcome. The NLN is only worth 10points so that's why I didn't retake it. So whatever your final score is just divide by 10. I can't remember the max score on the NLN. Sounds like you will be able to get in. I applied to the fall semester. So ...

Sometimes it depends on which semester you are applying for. Add up your points up then you will know your score. I had B's in both AP I & II, I got an A in Micro. I bombed the NLN got a 100(very lucky cause that's what you need to get in and I m...

Sorry for taking so long to reply, I forgot my password lol then I got mad cause I couldn't remember it! I haven't graduated yet, I will be starting the ASN program at the end of August. I picked the ASN route because it was cheaper for me and I need...
