I hope you do get accepted in 2-3 years but I dont know. I was accepted for Fall of 2014/alternte of 2013 back in 2010. Im still waiting. From what Ive heard, there IS a pretty good chance you will be...
I agree with Cuddles. If you only want to go into nursing for the flexible schedule, there is a good chance you will end up unhappy. All you have to do is search for posts on here by new grads who...
I have been a hospital PCA for a year now and I can honestly say that I love my job. (Don't get me wrong, it has its moments!) The main thing I like is the interaction with the patients and feeling...
Thanks so much for all the responses :) I guess it just depends on where you work. I currently work nights and float to all units except ICU/CCU and ER. Some nights I, too, am so busy that I can't...
I am going to OCC too. I am in my last semester and am applying for Fall 2012 ADN program. If you decide to go that route, keep in touch! It would be nice to have someone to talk to in the same...
Hi, I have a question and wanted to know if anyone already in the nursing program at Schoolcraft can help me. I am wondering how long you were on the waitlist before you actually got in? When was your...
I don't want to offend anyone either but I think "ImThatGuy" has a point. I was actually going to start a post and ask why theres so much cattiness in nursing? I am a female and currently a...
Thanks for the update! Thats good to know. Im wondering what the next GPA cut off will be? This last one was 3.88 (which I have now.) I have 4 classes to take (one is a re-do,) and if I get 4.0's in...
Thats not entirely true. I am a PCA in a hospital and didn't have any patient care experience or education whatsoever when they hired me 3 months ago. I did transfer in from another dept in the...
Thank you for that! I WISH that was a requirement for acceptance into a nursing program. Then maybe they could weed out some of people who arent really cut out for it and the rest of us wouldnt have...
I have a question for those of you who were bumped up the list to 2011. How far ahead were you bumped? Just one year? I got accepted last year with a start date of Fall 2014 and possible bump to 2013....
Thanks Brodygirl :) I wil look into that for sure! As far as OCC revamping the program, I dont think its necessarily a bad thing, only because the GPA has really gotten ridiculously high. At the same...
Hi. I am a new "commenter" on here. I too am trying to get into OCC's 2012 program. I just met with a councelor at Orchard Ridge and he told me they are probably going to make it so that you can't...
