  1. New Graduate RN Residency Programs

    superWufie posted a topic in Nursing Career

    Hey everyone! I couldn't find that many posts specific to the residency/orientation programs available to new grads, so I thought I would start one :) I hear all kinds of good things about quality...

  2. UNC ABSN 2012 Decisions Due Soon

    superWufie replied to wannabeUNC's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Hi everyone! Just thought I would add that our class is going to be about 56 total students (that's the early admits and regular admits together). Congrats to those who got in and "don't give up!!" to...

  3. Accelerated BSN - UNC vs Duke

    superWufie replied to irishrose26's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Hey! In my opinion, I would list the BSN programs in this order: Duke, UNC, Queens, UNC Charlotte, UNCG, NCCU, and WSSU. That list is based on what I've heard from students, physicians/nurses from the...

  5. UNC-CH ABSN for 2011

    superWufie replied to FSUcrewNole's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    ocennia, my mom and I were sitting in the row behind you! I didn't get a chance to meet you, though. Was your mom there with you, or was that someone else I met...? I just completed the onyen, and...

  6. UNC-CH ABSN for 2011

    superWufie replied to FSUcrewNole's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I can't post them on the boards, but there are a couple sites I found through Google that give you some practice questions for free. You kind of have to look past the ads, though. Don't fret! There...

  7. UNC-CH ABSN for 2011

    superWufie replied to FSUcrewNole's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Me too! It's so frustrating. We were going to go apartment shopping after, but we can't until Sunday now. Anyway, I wouldn't fret too much about the test. It's on basic algebra and English, so nothing...

  8. UNC-CH ABSN for 2011

    superWufie replied to FSUcrewNole's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    That stinks! Sorry to hear that. I've experienced similar miscommunications with several topics, too... I hope that what we've been hearing about the administration isn't true once we start. Just got...

  9. UNC-CH ABSN for 2011

    superWufie replied to FSUcrewNole's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Ocennia: not that I don't believe you, but who told you that? After I told the financial aid person I emailed that I have a previous degree, she said I didn't have to file it... I also sent her a link...

  10. UNC-CH ABSN for 2011

    superWufie replied to FSUcrewNole's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Thanks ocennia! I actually just remembered reading something about it once, and sure enough, when I looked it up on the SON website, only nursing students who do not have a previous undergrad degree...

  11. UNC-CH ABSN for 2011

    superWufie replied to FSUcrewNole's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    So I just got an email from UNC'S Scholarships and Student Aid Office that said we needed to submit the FAFSA and something called a CSS Profile for 2011-2012. Has anyone heard anything about this...

  12. Good books to prep for ABSN program

    superWufie posted a topic in General Students

    I will be starting the ABSN program at UNC in January. Long story short, I have no prior nursing experience and am getting anxious about how in-depth and intense the program material will be! So, I...

  13. Good books to prep for ABSN program

    superWufie replied to superWufie's topic in General Students

    Thanks to you both! Good advice... I was afraid that the nursing schools would have strict requirements about their books (since I know other admin protocol can change with schools), but if it's the...

  14. UNC-CH school of nursing Summer 2011 acceptance

    superWufie replied to UNC-CH 2011 HOPEFUL's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    ncsteph: I don't really like posting my stats or anything online, but I can say that I had "good" grades (nothing outrageous, but definitely no grades to sneeze at); the chemistries really gave me a...

  15. UNC-CH ABSN for 2011

    superWufie replied to FSUcrewNole's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    From what I've heard and what I know of the students and faculty at the two schools, the bottom line is this: You cannot go wrong, no matter which school you go to. Both are two of the most reputable...

    superWufie replied to FSUcrewNole's topic in North Carolina Nursing

  17. UNC-CH school of nursing Summer 2011 acceptance

    superWufie replied to UNC-CH 2011 HOPEFUL's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Oh gosh, thank you both, but you don't have to do that for me! :) I like apartment/home hunting anyway, hehe... Just that opinions and word-of-mouth make it easier sometimes. I definitely wouldn't...

  18. UNC-CH ABSN for 2011

    superWufie replied to FSUcrewNole's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Ocennia: don't think that! I'm pretty competitive so I usually live by that same "second is first loser" rule, but I've come to realize that that just isn't true. There are so many applicants and so...

  19. UNC-CH ABSN for 2011

    superWufie replied to FSUcrewNole's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I got accepted to UNC as well!! Got my letter this past Friday; the postmark was March 14, I believe. I live in NC also... I think, ocennia, that maybe since you're out of state it will take longer...

  20. Accelerated BSN - UNC vs Duke

    superWufie replied to irishrose26's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    superWufie replied to UNC-CH 2011 HOPEFUL's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Wow... So, you guys are starting this summer, I take it? I was under the impression you were starting in January 2012... No wonder our pre-orientation dates are so different. I'm so dumb lol. Gonna...
