You can get it through LabCorp. I got the appointment through Accesa labs since they offer a discount. Pretty much you will get your result in a couple of days through email and it will have a numerical value. If you aren't in a hurry I would suggest just getting the vaccine even if you already had chicken pox, since it won't do any damage. You can get that through Dallas County Health Department. The vaccine is around $24 I believe for two doses (they have to be a month apart, hence the time constraint) vs. $80 for the titer. Good luck!

Yeah they should be able to figure it out. Even if it says unofficial, that is the official copy you need to send with your application.

I agree with iCme2. Thank you for such a lengthy and detailed post. What kind of patient care experience do you recommend? I searched for nursing internships in the Dallas area and they are scarce. Other than that, I can't think of much I can do without a nursing degree.

Hello Everyone, I am heading to Northlake Jan 2012 God willing, but reading a lot of these forum posts is making me nervous. I had all support classes completed except for Microbiology which I am doing this semester at Richland, 4.0 pre-req GPA and almost 96 Hesi Score. I worked pretty hard to get into the program and I know I'll have to work pretty hard to stay in and get good grades. I guess what I'm nervous about is finding work after the ADN is completed. From what I read, it seems more and more hospitals now are looking for Bachelors in Nursing as opposed to ADN. Are there any graduates from the El Centro/Northlake program who have any advice for finding a job after graduation? Also if they can share their experiences (with the job search, classes, professors, etc.) that would be great. Any advice will be welcome.

I have 16 points as well and around 475 Hesi points. I submitted my application yesterday at El Centro. I noticed a few more application in the submitting bin. I hope we all get in! I'm working on Microbiology right now @ Richland College, so that will be my last support class to finish up if I hopefully start the program in January.
