    Update: For anyone with a plan that may be somewhat ambitious like mine was - you CAN do it! Today I start my first day of nursing school at GSU, and I'm absolutely thrilled with the choices I've made...

    breezy7 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Since I made the decision to switch from graduating with my BA and add on a pre-nursing degree, most classes are already full. How does this line up sound? Fall: Online General Psychology class (3...

  3. Nano-Tex Sizing - Help!!

    breezy7 replied to breezy7's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Thanks for your help! I think I'll definitely go for the women's top, then. My mom seems to think I'll need an XS on top, but I can't decide between S and M on bottom. Hate buying clothes without...

    breezy7 posted a topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I have no idea how to buy scrubs and haven't had my nursing orientation yet, so this is the only place I know to go to for this question. Our school gave us a code for meridys.com. The shirt is...

  5. So Frustrated!!

    breezy7 replied to JB13's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Good luck! GSU is competitive, but there's no limit (as far as I know) on how many times you can attempt the TEAS. Wishing you the best

    breezy7 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    They understand if you don't have the flu shot... just make sure to get it when they start giving them again! I don't think there's any place offering it right now. I'm in the same situation you are...

    breezy7 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    You should be fine! I had mine at the health clinic, but they didn't give me any documentation for it. Do you guys know if the health forms and data sheets all go in the health packet? I'm going to...

    breezy7 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I took the CPR class today! Her son was our instructor, and he was excellent as well. The only thing I'm missing is the flu shot, but unfortunately the health clinic won't have any in until the...

    breezy7 replied to MN-Nurse's topic in General Students

    I would LOVE to be able to gain experience through a hospital or health-related job while in nursing school! That being said, it would be impossible for me to support myself financially if I did so....

  14. Will my tattoos hold me back?

    breezy7 replied to MLutiker's topic in General Students

    I have a tattoo on each of my wrists. I don't regret getting them. One of them is nursing related. If anything, I think it'll better help me to connect with my patients by allowing me to share a bit...

    breezy7 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    breezy7 replied to ixchel's topic in General Students

    My orientation isn't until August, but I have a ton of fees to pay, health forms to fill out, and supplies to buy! I'm taking Patho and some basic courses required for my nursing program in the fall....

  18. GSU Fall 2012

    breezy7 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I think it includes NCLEX prep, which is still pretty awesome! I haven't paid it yet, but I imagine it does include all of that. I'm glad the program outlines all of the expenses, because it probably...

    ATI fee is roughly $700, insurance is $13 a year, CPR is around $50, drug screening is $80ish, then there's all the clothing/equipment/clinical pack which will probably be a couple hundred... and...

  20. GSU Fall 2012

    breezy7 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    It's definitely overwhelming - I'm dipping into my savings quite a bit. BUT the ATI fees are for all 3 years! So it's nice that it's a one-time payment. I can't wait to get the packet out of the way....

  22. GSU Fall 2012

    breezy7 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Yup, they're both fine! 3200 is 2 credits and 3300 is 3 credits. Apparently, you can only be approved for 3200 in the semester you're "supposed" to take it, but the nursing program will accept either...
