Hi! Just wanted to start another thread relating to GW's accelerated nursing program. Is anyone applying? They extended the deadline to March 1st and wondering if there weren't many applicants or they just allowed for more time? I'm sending mine in t...

Hello Nursing friends :) I have a question - my classmates and I went into our practice lab tonight and our professor told us that in order to practice bed baths, we had to be in bathing suits, bring our own towels, soap, etc etc. We all were comple...

What do you think a surgeon says to his first patient he cuts into as a resident? Or a cardiac surgery resident assisting with open heart surgery? Obviously those are extremes but consider the comparisons and logic behind the argument saying you must...

Thanks Greentea, while I agree with some of the principals that you are standing on - I don't completely agree with a few things. First of all, my classmates are genuine and we are eager to learn how to best care for our patients. We don't see them a...

Well, laying on a beach in front of friends is one thing..being touched and bathed by a classmate is a different story.

thanks for posting those links - helpful!

Thats what I thought! It completely crosses the line.

Hey Everyone, Is anyone applying to Stevenson for the fall? I'm attending the open house on Jan 22nd and the application is due 2/15. Just thought I'd see who else is out there applying! I'm currently in a BSN program at Washington Adventist but wan...

hey navynursecorps, I did make it to the info session but unfortunately did not get in. I had some repeats in my undergrad work (10 years ago) and they are basing their decision off of that. Pretty unfair but I am in a great nursing program now (desp...

Hmm, yeah I will have to check. I did take Biology recently as a refresher... I wonder if that will help. They don't require the TEAS test for SU which is nice. I think A&P, Nutrition and Micro are the only ones within 5 years that need to be ta...

Thats great, maybe I will see you there. I'm worried that my micro is a few years older then 5 years. I dont know how strict they are with that with significant health care experience. I don't think its too difficult to get into WAU. They've done an...

That would have been nice! Still waiting... I wonder how many people are still waiting.

Someone explained that the 1st round of acceptances have gone out and they are waiting for people to accept or decline. Makes more sense! :)

Still no word for me... they said it could go into next week. I don't understand the hold up if there were only 300 applicants and we are going into 3 and 1/2 weeks since they started. Oh well, I'm just going to enjoy my holiday and forget about this...

Congrats!!! Still waiting, ah~!

I called and they are updating statuses as we speak...

You as well, thanks!!

At least I'm not the only one! Lets hope for Monday..

Grey Lady, Do you know if they are going into Monday with decisions? I still haven't heard and someone in admissions said they should be done by today. Is anyone else waiting too?

what CC program are you looking into?

I wonder why they wait so long to tell people they didn't get in?? It seems like that would be easiest to get out of the way first. Sorry both of you guys that didn't get in after such a long wait. I am not convinced I got in either but at least have...

littletkgirl, I agree. I can't imagine that if we were rejected... we wouldn't have found out by now. Although, I'll just wait and see. Its so tough waiting though!

I impatiently asked admissions and they said all decisions should be out by the end of the week. The wait is killing me but I did get accepted to another program today so am glad to have a back up plan!

You should think about if nursing is really want you want to do in life. Its a tough profession but well worth it. Nursing school won't be easy no matter where you go. If you go to community college or UMSON. You should decide if you are committed en...

Thanks!!
