Hey everyone, @sunshiine: last year, acceptances were given out late March and anyone on the waitlist was notified of their rank by April. As for University vs program acceptances, I believe you...
Congratulations Solidus!!! As for the immunizations: The 2-step PPD does take two weeks to complete, and if you need your MMR or Varicella, don't take those until after your second PPD reading (they...
Thank you ScottE for that tidbit of knowledge! I didn't know that I was pretty confident in making my decision to engrave mine, and thanks also mom2ccg too! I just got my stethoscope in the mail and...
I agree with szeles23. Apply for any program that you can meet with what you have right now. Also, going through ADN programs isn't stupid. In the end, you'll be an RN just like the ones who went...
I plan on buying a Littman Classic II SE for nursing school. Medisave offers free engraving, but should I engrave it? I noticed that they engrave on the inside edge of the bell side--does this affect...
I called the school of nursing today and the person who answered (I'm assuming she's the receptionist) said it could be another week or two for emails notifying
I'm a little confused about whether you thought my last post was attacking others? As with all posts, please take them with a grain of salt. I was only really shocked by how great 22flower's...
Hey bella1990, I'm assuming you were replying to me. I received an email near the end of March telling me that I was on waitlist and what rank I was. I'm also a continuing student, so I'm not sure how...
I'm sort of in the same boat! I didn't bother applying to Samuel Merritt though. I'm super close to getting into SFSU as well. I'm really set on going to SFSU. From the moment I got into USF's...
I also forgot to mention that there are some people who have bachelor degrees in a different major wanting to go into nursing. they also have programs for that if you're concerned by your grades. it's...
There are several ways to become a nurse. You don't have to become an RN with a BS degree straight away if you think your transcript won't be palatable to the schools' nursing review. You can...
i know for sure that chabot, merritt, los medanos, ohlone, ccsf use lottery systems. these are community colleges with adn programs in northern ca. they have to first select candidates with at least...
I was recently put on waitlist for the BSN program at San Francisco State University here in California. The waitlist I'm on has 115 people. If your school goes by rank on the waitlist, and you're...
I think it's a too late for programs in California, especially if you wanted to apply for this Fall 2011. At this point, we're all waiting on acceptances and waitlist updates. I would suggest looking...
I'm confused on the last part about taking an RN and doing a bridge program... Did you mean an ADN (the 2-year degree taken at community colleges)? That is definitely an option regardless of gpa or...
