Hey can you inform me as well??

Averylove1 how was your interview? Did you start? If so, How has it been for you?? thanks

Hi Jordan, how did you overcome groupone??

I'm still waiting and I applied months ago... how did you get your student email so fast. This is the only university that has no log on to see an update that I applied to.

has anyone started a fb group for those accepted into fall14?

Any updates from those who left teaching to become a nurse??? How are you now if you finished nursing school?? Any regrets?? I am a nursing student thinking of going into teaching. Any and all advice would be appreciated!

Cilee4, no TVCC changed their selection process regarding points. Starting Fall 2012, application period for 2013, the new point system will cap at 21. The previous cap was 13 points. You can gain additional points by taking and completing the "BSN" course, such as govt 2301 &02, hist 1302&02, art/humanities, stats, english 2 etc. By taking the additional classes and earning the points you make yourself more competitive for the program. Contact jballom for more info. He is the counselor for TVCC Kaufman.

YAAAH, I made it in this fall!! Good luck

Karrin I spoke with a UTA rep. It was explained that if you are partnered with a hospital FA is not available. On the flip side to that, partnered applicants have a "heads" up on non-partnered applications.

Wow that kind of mix up has to be scary...you have others personal information, grades and schools. I wonder how could that happen.

I personally believe this is a professional website. Nursing is a PROFESSION and this website is for nursing and aspiring nurses. We should remain professional in communication, including grammar/spelling. Others read these post to learn from others. Venting is okay if done tactful. It appears anyone who agrees with or does not have a problem with the extra classes you lash out. El Centro and other COMMUNITY COLLEGES are making the change, not just TVCC. Overall the change is being made to better equip nurses, especially since nurses can cause life or death in their patients. This should be a good thing not frowned upon because after school comes the real world. People can be killed! Back on point, if TVCC is money hungry then so are the other schools. Its not about money but about hospitals and the health field wanting better nurses. It is not nice to throw around comments like racist. From what I can see those who have posted, including myself, have tried to help you realize the changes and the benefits it can provide. I can see the initial frustration but even when Helen, from TVCC, tried to explain the changes your response to her was kind of rude. If the changes are not what you want, then there are other "job" choices. Both Princess Mama and I referred to Bachelors degrees not Associate degrees when referring to the 7 additional classes. You failed to read properly what was said. I am not a TVCC rep, I am an aspiring nursing student. Social websites like facebook or myspace would probably better benefit you for what you are expecting to hear regarding the changes in the ADN programs. Toodles!

I never thought about that. Maybe you are right

and i quote: the extra classes are nothing more than your basics. regardless if you get a ba (correction=bachelors) in nursing or any other degree you would still need these courses. if you decide nursing is not for you and you want to do something else your lower level classes are complete. if you look at it from that pov maybe this would be easier to swallow. run-on sentence, [color=#ffa500]cap letter, spelling, [color=#daa520]punctuation, red-vs-blue=same thing

Thank you Romans8:28. I put God first in alll that I do and I know He controls everything in my life. I know the job and dollar amount He has for me will come to me.

Also, maybe more than one semester of English is beneficial in being a great ADN RN... putting it politely.
