  1. I can't stop thinking about quitting nursing school.

    efsrous posted a topic in General Students

    I'm sure there are many posts on here from nursing students boohooing about how hard nursing school is and how they want to quit. I hate to add to that chorus but I've been keeping these feelings...

  2. I can't stop thinking about quitting nursing school.

    efsrous replied to efsrous's topic in General Students

    If a particular post is too long or uninteresting for you to bother reading, feel free to not post a response. Some other people resonated with this topic enough to discuss it and have been helpful to...

  3. I can't stop thinking about quitting nursing school.

    efsrous replied to efsrous's topic in General Students

    Thanks for sharing your experience. I'm lucky in that the philosophy in my program is not a hunger games style attempt to weed out the weak ones, but rather one where they want to give you the support...

  4. I can't stop thinking about quitting nursing school.

    efsrous replied to efsrous's topic in General Students

    Thanks for your response. I was never really considering quitting. I fantasize about it constantly and it's definitely a struggle for me to get through the week, but quitting isn't really an option...

    efsrous replied to efsrous's topic in General Students

    Thanks for the encouragement. I know I need to be a little kinder to myself. The breakdown wasn't really about the alarm, I think that one incident was just the straw that broke the camel's back,...

    efsrous replied to jl_1122's topic in School, College Programs

    I called Stanislaus and they said a fee waiver for the intent to enroll exists for students applying for nursing, but it was due early April. I wish I had known about this, I've scoured their nursing...

    efsrous replied to jl_1122's topic in School, College Programs

    The intent to enroll isn't refundable. I feel like I will probably get in to Sac, but it just feels like so much hubris not to have a

    efsrous replied to jl_1122's topic in School, College Programs

    milkpearl, I think they expect some people to accept their admission and then withdraw it later; that's why they have alternate lists. I don't think it will be a problem if you accept at San Diego and...

    efsrous replied to jl_1122's topic in School, College Programs

    So I guess we're not going to hear until tomorrow; that's so frustrating. I was admitted to CSU Stanislaus' nursing program, so I guess I will have to submit my intent to enroll there along with $200...

    Wow, thanks for digging up that email for us! Now, will it stop me from obsessively checking all day? Probably

    efsrous replied to jl_1122's topic in School, College Programs

    I don't think there is any way of knowing what time they will send it out. I've gotten decisions from other nursing schools at various times of the day. Sac is my first choice, so of course it's the...

    efsrous replied to jl_1122's topic in School, College Programs

    Thanks so much for all the info! It's nice to have a clearer picture of what the program really demands. The frontloading process will be intense, I'm sure. I was thinking about taking medical...

    Hi Sakakaka, I'm in the same boat as you, a transfer student who's been admitted to the university and waiting for news about the nursing program. Hopefully we will hear back from the nursing school...

    efsrous replied to jl_1122's topic in School, College Programs

    Xaireel, thanks for offering to share about your experience at Sac State! Could you give us an idea of a typical week in the nursing program? How much time a day in lab, lecture or clinical? How many...

    efsrous replied to jl_1122's topic in School, College Programs

    According to the email I got from cstan, the deadline for your intent to enroll for the nursing program is 4/11, but the deadline for the intent to enroll for the university is 5/1 and requires a $200...

    efsrous replied to jl_1122's topic in School, College Programs

    Congrats, I also got into cstan! Sac is still my first choice though . I guess we'll have to submit our intent to enroll before we find out about sac, since it's due 4/11 and we won't find out about...

    Finally some info! "Based on student-reported data, the applicant ranked 80 has 76 points—the applicant ranked 120 has 71 points. We anticipate the cut-score will be slightly lower when we have...

    It sounds like most people live off campus, and that's my plan if I get in. University housing is so expensive

    efsrous replied to jl_1122's topic in School, College Programs

    I mailed my application in on Friday 2/21 and got a confirmation email by Mon 2/24. I was surprised it was so fast, but maybe I got my app in before they got totally swamped. Still, it may be worth a...

    efsrous replied to jl_1122's topic in School, College Programs

    I've also applied to Sonoma State and CSU Stanislaus. I think I have the best shot at Sac, because their point system doesn't take overall GPA into account, just nursing GPA. I dropped out of UC Davis...
