Hello! I don't know how many of you are turning in your applications for the summer 2012 OU ABSN program, but I found a helpful page on OU's website which contains a schedule for this year's ABSN...
I can't find the facebook group...does it take a day to get it approved? As far as the textbooks I went with the alumni textbook w/ ebooks option. Yeah they're more expensive, but everyone I've...
I'm pretty sure that like someone said in an earlier post, no news is good news when it comes to the background reports or specimen reports. I think I sent mine in the same week we received our...
Scott--would love any advice you have. A few things specifically..do you have any of the syllabus's or the reading assignment lists for the first summer? I know once we start it'll be crazy, and I'd...
I honestly didn't know for sure if I'd want the OU slot, but when I opened the acceptance letter I knew OU was the best choice. However, both are great programs so deciding between the two wasn't the...
I am in the same situation. Can't write too much now, but my advice would be OU if you have the time and means. If you want to talk feel free to send me your number. My husband and I are out right now...
Congrats to everyone who was accepted and made the alternate list! I hope you alternates get great news soon--I was an alternate last year for the traditional program, and I remember how hard it was...
Congrats to everyone who got in! I too received my acceptance letter to the ABSN in Oklahoma City! I'm about to place my deposit and start checking off items on our to-do
Pedioncodreams--I was finishing Chemistry and Statistics. Of course I have nothing to do with the nursing program decisions, but if OU doesn't accept you they're crazy. I wish OU had told me how...
I too wish OU would factor experience into their decision. I assume OU wants to maintain their reputation for being a solid nursing program, and nursing students with prior healthcare experience seem...
Here's an email I just received from the OU advisor, "I just checked with your Admissions Coordinator. She said the letters should leave campus tomorrow. They are inputting decisions today." I think...
Check out www.customtrainingsolutions.net. They're located in OKC, and are certified through the American Heart Association. The class only took about 3 hours. My certification is good through Aug...
I'm so sorry for freaking you out about that from last year! I hope it's not the case this year! But if anyone does not get accepted this year, my advice would be to get a job at one of the...
The date for the orientation is the 18th of May. When I dropped off my acceptance and clinical preference list the advisor stated they will be sending out another letter correcting the mistake. I'm...
Also, I checked OU's Master's program requirements and they currently don't allow ADN's to go straight into a Master's program, so maybe that's changed recently. At OU you have to complete the RN-BSN...
Congrats to everyone who got accepted! I too received my acceptance letter on Saturday! I'm waiting to hear back from OU's accelerated, and then I'll make my decision. Regardless, I'm looking...
I just received my acceptance to the accelerated ADN program at OCCC. Seems like it has taken me so long to get to this point--can't wait to hear what OU says! I'd rather do an accelerated BSN at...
Congrats smiller44! I too didn't think we'd be hearing back this quickly. I live in Moore so I'm a little concerned that I didn't receive a letter yesterday. Hopefully something (preferably good...
Surprisingly I'm not as nervous this year as I was last year...I think it's because I have all of the pre-req's finished and I'm applying as an in-state resident. There's really not much more I can...
Thanks for all of the advice. I just wish I knew if I were admitted or not, and then this application/decision making process would be over. Hopefully we'll hear sooner than they did last year. I...
Does anyone know the final count of applications submitted? When I submitted my application on Monday, the 23rd of January, there were 21 applications. And according to the health care advisor, 19...
I received a voicemail from the admissions coordinator today stating that the files are being reviewed next week and letters should be sent out at the end of February. Hopefully they'll let us know...
