I work nights full time so the pay is a little better. I started at 12 plus 1.50 shift diff for weekdays and 3 for weekends. After I finished my second semester, since im a nurse extern, I got a 2.00 raise plus a raise at one year. I work alot of ...

You can be a PCT at most hospitals after the first semester. I actually started applying about halfway through the first semester. You can also be a nurse extern which is what I am. It's basically a PCT except you can doing non med related nursing...

Most of the programs are about 4 months. THR is 18 weeks with both classes and working with a nurse on the floor, never more than 40 hours a week.

When you get out if you wanna work for a big hospital then you have to do a residency and hospitals offer a number of these every semester. Most of the internships get posted in October of you final semester, if you work for a hospital then they let...

Hello everyone. Sorry that you are waiting so long for your acceptance letters. I know how stressful it can be. I can't tell you if you got in or not but I can tell you that orientation is going to be on Dec 3rd all day. I hope all of you get to at...

Baylor put up their internships for two weeks in September. THR started with internal people in Septermer and opened up external in early october. I don't believe they are listing them anymore. JPS was open for a week in October. Methodist put the...

Hi guys. Congratulations on making it into the program. I was hoping you could advise me. I am graduating with my ADN soon and will be working on my BSN and later I might try to get into NP school. Would it be a good idea for me to take my RN-BSN...

It's on the 5th floor of the nursing building (street level). You can't miss it. They have a cart outside selling shirts and other stuff.

It's the Texas Nursing Student Association. It's the nursing club. You'll find out more about it at orientation. We run the store, go to orientation, organize volunteer stuff, help the students, give out scholarships...etc

Oh don't be nervous. You will make lots of new friends and have fun. This might help. Go to youtube and search for TNSA2013 (no space) go down a few links until you see the one actually titled that. Click it and watch the movie inside. It's a re...

Hello Future Nursing Students!!! Hi, my name is Verna and I will be the TNSA Peer Assist for next semester. I would like to start off by congratulating everyone who got in, also for those of you that are alternatives...hang in there. There is still ...

So who's ready for orientation tomorrow? I'm a current student from the Spring 2012 tread. Congrats to all that got in. I'll be volunteering tomorrow and can't wait to see all of you tomorrow.

You purchase your student nurse badge from the bookstore and wear it with your school id

Just some pocket cash. Shirts are $15 I think and they have other stuff. Keep in mind that you can always buy this stuff later on campus when the TNSA office is open but I really wanted to buy a shirt at orientation and only had my debit card. :/

Yes, you pay for it at business services. Be sure to take some extra CASH to orientation because TNSA will be selling stuff "tcc nursing shirts, bags and other goodies" at orientation

The partnership with Tarleton is an RN - BSN program only.

Me and Cross are at AMH on Tuesday. What did everyone else get?!?

The drilled the math into us the first couple of weeks. We had clinicals at campus so we did math during some of that time. You will go over and over it and if you still need help there will be plenty of student and instructors willing to help. The c...

Good point. There is parking at TREC but it gets full quick, after that you park at trinity river but be warned that in the beginning of the semester trinity river garage may be full and you may have to park in overflow. Show up early and know where ...

Hello, hope you guys are enjoying your break. Quick question, did anyone have or know anyone that took adult clinicals at HEB. I take adult in the Fall and AMH and HEB really work for my schedule. Thinking HEB because theory is only once a week. Any ...

I'm thinking it might be right, but don't worry. If by chance you do get Monday you will have the chance to trade with someone.

Yep, I am one of them
