  1. CCBC Spring 2011

    erikab987 replied to RN-4Ever's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Wow, that's really surprising...and encouraging. From the statistics I have seen from the past, it seems like there are usually a lot of unqualified applicants (I guess people just apply to throw...

  2. CCBC Spring 2011

    erikab987 replied to RN-4Ever's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Lucky: I applied to U of M, Notre Dame, CCBC, JHU and DelTech (in DE). I have all of my bachelor's prereqs done except Nutrition and A&PII, which I am in now, but I would like to go the Community...

  3. "if you weren't so obese, you probably wouldn't have 1/2 the illnesses you do"

    erikab987 replied to SNB1014's topic in General Nursing

    I didn't really think this discussion was debating the physical attractiveness of being heavy or thin...maybe I'm wrong. ANYWAY, if someone is overweight (OR a drug addict, OR an alcoholic, OR a...

  4. "if you weren't so obese, you probably wouldn't have 1/2 the illnesses you do"

    erikab987 replied to SNB1014's topic in General Nursing

    I really don't see where all the accusations of insensitivity are coming from...especially those commenting specifically on obesity. A few posters on here commented that they themselves would be...

  5. "if you weren't so obese, you probably wouldn't have 1/2 the illnesses you do"

    erikab987 replied to SNB1014's topic in General Nursing

    I have to say, I feel that many of the posters on this thread referring to the OP as "callous", "rude", "uncaring", etc. seem to come from misinterpretation of the inflection. I, also, was a little...

  6. CCBC Spring 2011

    erikab987 replied to RN-4Ever's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Yes, I just checked out the thread for Fall 2010 and many said they got their letters on or around May 7th, which would be the same amount of days as November 7th for last year's Spring applicants...

  7. CCBC Spring 2011

    erikab987 replied to RN-4Ever's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I know. Somehow 6 weeks feel like 6 months. I feel like I got my pre-reqs done in less time than this waiting!!

  8. CCBC Spring 2011

    erikab987 replied to RN-4Ever's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I actually spoke to someone at the Selective Admissions Office on Tuesday (the person that was indicated on my "application has been received" card). I called because I applied to other schools and...

  9. money to live on while in school

    erikab987 replied to rokbe's topic in General Students

    Actually, I don't know what state you're in, but there are a few states which offer continuing education UI waivers (I know NY is one of them). You don't have to report any job searches as long as...

  10. CCBC Spring 2011

    erikab987 replied to RN-4Ever's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Absolutely. We ARE at about the 4 week mark, but our cards said the end of November Hopefully it's waaaaayyyy sooner than that! Good luck and if anyone gets a sitting fee posted on Simon or a...

  11. CCBC Spring 2011

    erikab987 replied to RN-4Ever's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Sounds good to me. I also heard that many students each semester don't get accepted because they didn't meet all of the requirements. (Does this mean people randomly handing in Nursing Apps that...

  12. CCBC Spring 2011

    erikab987 replied to RN-4Ever's topic in Maryland Nursing

    No, we couldn't indicate more than one program...applicants for Fall 2011 could (meaning students who will be turning their applications in on March 15, 2011). Just wanted to clarify.

  13. CCBC Spring 2011

    erikab987 replied to RN-4Ever's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Starting for applicants for Fall 2011, students will be able to apply for both campuses and use "first choice"

  14. Johns Hopkins or University of Maryland??

    erikab987 replied to misssrblake's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Not sure how many people this will reach, since the post is old, but... Yes JHU has a huge name in the US, BUT...check your facts: U of M School of Nursing is rated higher AND is more competitive...

  15. CCBC Spring 2011

    erikab987 replied to RN-4Ever's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Yes, that would be how to figure out your GPA. The Selective Admission Office considers 3 different GPAs: science only, pre-reqs and general ed. and then, of course, your TEAS

  16. CCBC Spring 2011

    erikab987 replied to RN-4Ever's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I can't believe my pink card says the end of November. The website says that letters are mailed 4-6 weeks from the application deadline. That would put us at the end of October at the latest. I...

  17. CCBC Spring 2011

    erikab987 replied to RN-4Ever's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Yes, I am in the same position...did great on the TEAS and my science grades with CCBC have been all A's. My GPA is 3.89 with CCBC but I am using transfer credits for ENG 101 and PSYC101 from quite...

  18. CCBC Spring 2011

    erikab987 replied to RN-4Ever's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Hey all, hope to see you in the spring. I am in the same situation as some of you: still have 1 prereq in the fall, even though I am applying for Spring. I almost killed myself this summer by taking...

  19. CCBC Spring 2011

    erikab987 replied to RN-4Ever's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I don't know what I would do if I can't get in for Spring 2011. I have heard sooo many different things: you can/won't get in without all of your prereqs done, you can have a low GPA, bad TEAS, as...

  20. CCBC Spring 2011

    erikab987 replied to RN-4Ever's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Lucky ----> yes, she was placed on a "wait list" that could have been tapped if some students who were accepted did not accept the seat and make the $200 deposit. It is not a rolling wait list, so...

  21. CCBC Spring 2011

    erikab987 replied to RN-4Ever's topic in Maryland Nursing

    That's strange b/c I know someone w/ a 3.0 that got wait-listed. I don't know what her TEAS score was. Hearing that is what basically made me so nervous. I am going to get the study guide for the TEAS...

  22. CCBC Spring 2011

    erikab987 replied to RN-4Ever's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I'll be applying for Spring 2011 soon. I will have everything finished in August except for AP 2, which I'll be doing in the Fall. I do have a 4.0 but I am horrible at taking tests so I am really...

  23. CCBC Anyone?

    erikab987 replied to RN-4Ever's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I might be a little late on this, but here are my recommedations, at Dundalk (I don't think you specified which campus) API - Herrera, APII - Anson, Micro - Doug

  24. CCBC Spring 2011

    erikab987 replied to RN-4Ever's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Hey guys! I am planning on applying for Spring 2011 as well. I will have everything done by Fall except A&PII. I am super nervous about TEAS, no idea what to expect! Guess I'll be taking that...

  25. Micro and A&P 2 together?

    erikab987 replied to shesham's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am wondering the same. I am registered for API and Micro at a local Community College during the SUMMER!! Don't know what I was thinking, but I know I need to have these classes done by the Fall...
