    I think you have a good chance. They want people with grades in that range, especially if they're improving, like yours are! And your EMT training is a help. I'd say, go for

    Gianna, I'm not in the program yet - starting in May - but they haven't posted the calendar yet. But, looking at the calendar for the last couple of years, looks like our last exams are Saturday May 5...

    NancyRx replied to kdrose01's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Good question! Was wondering that myself. When I was there on the campus tour I met Tibby, the guy who seems to be in charge of IT and their simulation lab. He was promoting the iTouch as a great...

    NancyRx replied to mtngal77's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Congrats, Valery! I just got my email acceptance (haven't gotten a snail mail envelope yet) and am very excited since Jeff is my top choice. I am an older student, having raised my kids and decided to...

  11. Any mature students out there?

    NancyRx replied to rosiekay's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    NancyRx replied to rosiekay's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I am a mature student who will be entering the program this spring. I am wondering if you mature students had trouble finding jobs. Also, was it harder or just as hard to get through the program as it...
