  1. I am EVER SO IMPATIENTLY waiting on word from Mercy School of Nursing. I applied for Spring semester & Pam Hatley in admissions said that we will hear from them by Sept. 15th. I see that during past semesters, many people received their letter e...
  2. Drug Testing for NS

  3. I have no idea how many points I have, but I have friends who discussed their points exactly with admissions. They seem pretty open to talk about it. I got in & start in January. I have A's in the three pre-req's I completed at time of applicatio...

    I got my letter about a month ago :) Accepted to Mercy School of Nursing in Charlotte, NC!!
  5. Why can't I find an out of state scholarship?

    Thanks dudette. My school does not do in-state/ out-of-state tuition. It is the same for everyone. I will talk to them about scholarships, but they seem to pretty much push the 80/20 split. They pay 80% and you pay 20% as long as you agree to work fo...
  6. I am a student who lives in SC. I am going to school in NC, approximately 15-20 miles away. I am losing ALL of my financial aid because I will not be in SC any longer. It STINKS! I have the grades to get a scholarship, but they all seem to require th...

  8. My thoughts on becoming a nursing student

  9. What is more difficult? AP or Microbilogy?

    I think Micro is harder by far. I loved A&P I & II. The concepts as they apply to a system or body part are much easier to grasp. Micro is so much chemistry & amino acids, enzymes, cell structure. ZzzzzZZZzzzz I just don't care for it muc...

  13. Anyone else for Spring 2011 at Mercy SoN?

    I start in January at Mercy too! I can't wait to meet you all. SCA2012- A diploma allows you to take the NCLEX just like an associates does. You start work EXACTLY like somebody with an ADN or BSN. You can bridge to your BSN from a diploma & your...

  23. Mercy School Of Nursing, NC- Anyone have some answers?

    If you have a 4.0 and a 92 on the TEAS... you are in. No way that there are 30 people with higher scores.
  24. Mercy School of Nursing, Charlotte

    Don't start worrying until Sept. 1st. I know it is so hard. I smoked the reading, english & math on the TEAS, but I didn't do well at all on a few parts of the science. I have heard that MSON is super hard to get in to. I am on the waiting list a...
