Hi All - I gave up my seat for the fall CEC. I dropped from the mobility program last fall. I have most of the books, stethoscope, scrubs with patches (mostly small, petite pants) and a bunch of other nursing school swag that I would love to get rid ...

Hey Beckie, I didn't have any issue. On the site they have a hyphen there...UL30im2-M1 (I don't remember when I did it if it was there... I just copied and pasted from the site and didn't have an issue). Have you tried that?

So its all very self taught.... they go over a powerpoint then in lab your kind of on your own but can ask questions. During the open lab hours there is a lab tech you can ask but I haven't done that and Im not sure how helpful they are. I would just...

I also sent my acceptance! Shits about to get really real ?. I look forward to meeting all of you!

I got the calculation email as well.... I don't really get it. It's good to have a higher number, right? Does anyone know how many people they accept?

I did and registered for the EVC for the second session. Cindy said we would hear in mid June if we're accepted. Thats so late! My job is pressing me as far as the fall schedule, especially since I'm not the only one who applied. I've heard working d...

The coworker I mentioned before said that there wasn't enough applicants- that they needed 20 more seats! Idk if thats true but I wonder if they would cancel this cycle altogether. Otherwise, it seems we would all be accepted!

y'all see they extended it again until May 24!? ?

Hi All, I also applied for Fall & I'm also seeing a To Do for one of my transcripts (I sent all 7 in one envelope so not sure why this is the only one still on there, maybe bc I received a bachelors from that school?) I've emailed the registrar o...

wow, all the way back to march 25! That's disappointing... I had to really work it out to get it all in for that Feb 1 deadline and now more in the pool who didn't plan enough to meet the deadline. Doesn't seem fair but such is life. I'm now debatin...

I'm not a LPN but a surgical tech and also applied for fall mobility. I haven't heard anything but a coworker of mine said the application was extended (she said this was from Cindy to her via email), although I don't see that on the website. I reall...

IDK if I'm just not getting it bc I'm overloaded w/ finals and meeting all the requirements for these applications or maybe I'm just an idiot- but I'm finding the information to schedule the HESI really confusing . Maybe someone can help a chick out!...

just a reminder that at the end of the day, do what is right for you. I listened to too many people years ago and I regret some decisions I've made in my career. With that being said, here's my two cents (and I apologize that its a bit negative). I'm...

I'm also looking to apply. I don't have any of the history/government classes done (not from TX originally so this wasn't a requirement for my previous bachelors degree) although I'm registered for next semester. I believe I have enough credits to s...

I admittedly skimmed through these posts but as a surgical tech (pursing nursing and regretting just not going for the RN in the first place) I personally feel there should only be RNs in the OR lol. I know I should* defend the profession but techs a...

Hi! I'm not an RN but a CST, so not sure how much help I am. But I recently started in peds after adult OR and I like it way more! The main differences for me is that there is much more time with the patient in the OR. It takes anesthesia much more t...

I would check with AST- ast.org and the TX state assembly may be able to help as well. I do see non certified positions posted on occasion and as long as you attended an accredited program, I wouldn't think it would be a problem. But you may want to ...

Hey Y'all- I moved to Austin from Boston about 3 years ago after declining a competitive ABSN program up north due to cost. Prob one of the hardest decisions I've ever made. As a surgical tech I was interested in ACCs mobility program as I could be d...

Hi Amber- Thank you for your response! I have def heard a lot of great things about ACC and that price is really hard to beat. I think I will still go for ACC and UT San Antonio. I have to retake some courses for ACC but can apply sooner for UT so I ...

thanks for your response and feedback :)

Hi Ya'll. Does anyone know if science prereqs have a time limit? I'm just beginning to explore other programs and recently learned UTHSCSA does not require these prereqs to be taken within 5 years (most schools require microbio and A&P to be take...

Hi Ilovenursing15. You have worked very hard and are fortunate to be in the program you are. Give yourself some credit! I worked very hard to get into an accelerated BSN program in Boston and was finally accepted and had to decline due to changes in ...

Would either of you be able to tell me what tuition reimbursement St.David's offers? (I know this is a bit of topic here but I would really appreciate it! Thanks yall)

Perhaps some of you have some perspective and advice for me (ill try to make this not so long winded)... Since 2008 I paid entirely out of pocket to take pre req classes toward an accelerated nursing program. During this time I got laid of twice. Th...

I would have to retake AP I And II, microbio (as these will be past the 5 yr mark) and I have to take pharmacology and the hesi-for Austin community college. I'd also have to be a resident for a year for the cheaper price there.
