    oaktown2 replied to RosePetalss's topic in California Nursing

    Hi Rosepetals, Yes, I have done the coursework part and it was horrible. I have taken A LOT of classes, so it was particularly long. But I had heard people complain about it so I made a point of...

    @williamhart1984- how were you notified of your OPUS account? I submitted my app and have received two actual letters from them saying that they received my app and what was missing, but I don't...

    oaktown2 replied to williamhart1984's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi all, I am also applying to Emory's BSN second degree program. I submitted my application at the end of Nov, but still have to make sure that my references get there and so far none of them have....

    oaktown2 replied to RosePetalss's topic in California Nursing

    Hi Rosepetals, I am also applying for the FNP program. I recently noticed that the deadline on NursingCAS seemed to be 12/31, but the SM website says 1/15. Do you know if it is in fact 1/15? I...

    Hi evaamber, Full disclosure, I have taken those, but mainly because they were required for some of the other schools that I was applying to and I was interested in the nutrition. However, how I...

    Welcome NoleMercy and ktliz! And thanks for the info NoleMercy! I've been curious as to when the interview dates would be. Oh now this all feels more real and nerve wracking! ktliz - I agree with...

    Evaamber - Evergreen is a pretty neat school and attracts a good group of people. Though I don't think I have run into as many outside of Olympia as you have! aspire2inspire - I think you are right...

    oaktown2 replied to murph1009's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    You all are making me feel really old. I've taken a very circuitous path in life and most times, don't mind it. I like the fact that I have done lots of things. But then I hear about people who...

    oaktown2 replied to murph1009's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    My essay was only about 3 pages double spaced. I also tried to keep it condensed. But since they don't have a limit, I wouldn't worry about it! I am still trying to deal with one last reference -...

    oaktown2 replied to murph1009's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Thanks murph1009 and hlr9433! I contacted my reference again and hopefully he just needs to hit submit or something easy. He finished another one, so it seemed odd that this one isn't finished. I...

    oaktown2 replied to murph1009's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Hi all, Does it say complete next to any of your references that were submitted online? Mine all have a started time, but none of them say complete. Just wondering if that is a system thing or if...

    Hi, evaamber - Welcome! What kind of things did you do in Peru? I did a health care program in Ecuador and loved it. I wish I had been able to travel to Peru when I was down there. VandyMeg -...

    oaktown2 replied to murph1009's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Again, this is all from previous threads, so I have no idea if things will change. Interview notification is via email or telephone, though it seemed like mainly email last year. Notification of...

    oaktown2 replied to murph1009's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Hi, T-Dasha - I know from reading previous years threads they didn't start contacting people for interviews until mid December. Last years interviews (for Fall 2010) were in January and maybe the...

    oaktown2 replied to murph1009's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Hi Blbriggs67 - I'm thinking that I will probably end up in some form of family practice. But I am trying to keep an open mind. I do also like labor & delivery and neonatal seems pretty amazing...

    oaktown2 replied to murph1009's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Hi VandyMeg, I don't think Duke specifies who the recommendations should be from other than non family. I personally think it is good to give a mix so that you show all aspects, though if you have a...

    Hi - Does anyone know if we just go ahead and ask for transcripts to be sent to the SON address? I want to get that process started, but am having trouble finding any specific instructions other...

    KikiJ - I can absolutely relate to that. Everything I have heard about the program has been positive and it seems like they can provide some great opportunities. The thing that keeps them top of the...

    oaktown2 replied to murph1009's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    KikiJ - thanks for filling us in on the info session. That's a bummer about the reimbursement program, but we still have 27 months until we are looking for work! Did you come out feeling excited...
