  1. Oops, wrong FB link. I am in the group for my class, naturally, and meant to give you the newer class(es). It seemed to me that my class fell mostly into 2 groups: the young ones pretty fresh out of...
  2. I just had orientation for the NVCC Traditional Nursing Program (RN) and they sure do seem oriented towards teaching you the rules! I am trying to decide whether to buy my books at the NVCC book store...
  3. I did,
  4. The NVCC nursing groups on FB can be a good source of information and support. I found out about the Inova opening from classmates posting on FB. Several were even interviewing the same time as me...
  5. There are a bunch of hoops to jump through to get into NVCC, and once in, they are quite demanding and picky. However, they also make clear their expectations, teach and train you very well, and have...
  6. Sambreen, I think you are in great shape. I am sure you will pass the English section of TEAS this time around now that you do not have to worry about the other sections and were so close last time...
  7. I had a 3.8 in my prerequisites because that was all I took. I have no idea where my TEAS scores are, sorry, as it is almost 3 years ago now. I do recall I was high in one, pretty good in another, and...
  8. I can't remember my scores, but isn't 80 the passing mark? If so you were very close in English. I don't think you can re-take a passing test, so your scores are what they are. And they seem fine to...
  9. NVCC Class of 2013 Meet and Greet + Q&A

    It is a lot of work once you are in the program and I graduated in Spring 2012 with a 3.4. (I got in Fall 2010 with a 3.8.) I currently work at INOVA Fair Oaks as an RN1 and am making almost $70K/year...
  10. Admission to NVCC Traditional Nursing is very competive, pretty much along the lines NVCC describes. I got in Fall 2010 with a 3.8, for example. I don't recall my TEAS scores, but do know I passed...
  11. I have seen where they hire a lot of LPNs for home health care and there are a growing number of opportunities in home health care. Admission to NVCC Traditional Nursing is very competive, pretty much...
  12. I went to the bookstore at MEC today and they said I had to buy the package there or I could not have the codes. I spoke to the manager, who said it was a nursing department decision and that other...
  13. NOVA Clinical locations??

    This is such great information!
  14. A quick shout out to flames thanks for all the helpful
  15. NOVA Fall 2010 Traditional or 2+1 anyone??

    I only know about the NOVA traditional program. For the TEAS, you have to get 80 or better and you have 3 tries and your out. You also have to get at least a C in 2 semesters of anatomy and...
  16. Flames, thanks for the ideas. Christer, I was in the morning orientation. They were nice, but there definitely is a NOVA way and they seemed to want to be sure we follow
  17. That is exactly what they said, that there is a passcode and you only get it through the bookstore. I have no idea what code they are talking about and what happens if you don't have it. Anybody...
  18. NVCC (NOVA) Online Hybrid Program

    I just had orientation and they sure do seem oriented towards teaching you the rules! I am trying to decide whether to buy my books at the NVCC book store or online, like at Amazon. I know online is...

  21. Nova nursing program

    I am wondering which NOVA we are talking about? NVCC or Southeastern? I have just gotten into the NVCC 2010 Traditional Nursing Program. That is RN. There is a BSN program at NVCC, called Momentum, in...
  22. I just got an email saying the acceptance letters had gone out for the Momentum program (I am only interested in Traditional). They are asking students accepted into Traditional and also Momentum or...
  23. NOVA Fall 2010 Traditional or 2+1 anyone??

    I got an email saying that they just sent acceptance letters to Momentum students and have been more than once asking those accepted into the 2010 Traditional to let them know if they also got into...
  24. NVCC (NOVA) Online Hybrid Program

    My understanding is that it could very well be the same this coming spring, as the program gets more and more competetive, especially for the Accelerated. It is a combination of less funding leading...
  25. NVCC (NOVA) Online Hybrid Program

    I heard that almost 100 applicants to the Fall Traditional program were not initially accepted and will have to wait. Pretty much only VA students supposedly have gotten in. I had a 3.8 and my...
