Megan- Based on what I know I don't think that form will be enough. I'm pretty sure it needs to be signed by a doctor. If I where you I'd either call the drs who administered those vaccines or just get the titters done. Chelsea- I actually did start ...

To the alternates: I too was an alternate initially, and was 3rd on the list. However, I got my "accepted" letter a week after the first. Email when out. Last year when I applied I was the 6th alternate on the list and got my accepted letter 2 days b...

Oops sorry for the confusion. Yes, I started the program last spring however I got a 74.58 in one of my courses which is failing. so I'm restarting/re entering this semester. I don't think I was quite prepared for how intense the program is last ...

I start Jan. 6th as well and I have a 1 1/2 chihuahua who means the world to me. I am fortunate in the fact that I live with my fiancé, as well as my BFF and her husband plus their 3 big dogs. Luckily we have different schedules so someone is almos...

Well I got my acceptance email!! I'm so excited. Since I started the program last spring I have my BSL and am going to be asking about re doing the background check and drug screen.

I'd go the ADN route. The EMT program at TCC is hardly worth the effort IMHO, making only a couple dollars more than minimum wage would just upset me. If you did the ADN program and eventually decided you wanted a BSN or higher you could always do a ...

At my local community college our wait list "expires" at the start of each semester. In other words, if I hadn't made it OFF the wait list this term it would drop me and everyone else and we would have to apply for the fall. We have 47 seats in the p...

So I went ahead and got a rolling bag! But it's really cute!lol. My mom had originally (for Christmas) given me a very cute Vera Bradley messenger bag. I loved it but I knew that it could not possibly hold everything I needed, so we went to exchange ...

I haven't actually started my nursing program yet( 2 days!)! Nor am I an RN, but I did want to tell you to keep with your nursing goal! Yes, every career choice has its pros and cons. I know in my heart that nursing is the career for me. I wouldn't ...

I too am from the big bend! I'm starting my NP at TCC on the 7th! Do you mind me asking where you are, as I hadn't heard about the lab coat rule for TCC...?

I'm just going to repeating what everyone else is saying by stating that your first goal will need to be getting in to legit nursing school/program. Keep in mind that this process with take several years to complete. It's not something you can simply...

Thanks for the ideas about the shoes. Mom mother was in Orlando and was outlet shopping and came across a scrub and nursing supply outlet store and she found some plain white leather shoes and bought them for me! She texted me pictures and they look ...

I don't know for sure but I plan on bringing them just in case. I don't want to need them and not have them. Although I'm still waiting to buy my Smeltzer(I think thats the author) book, as I need my next paycheck for it.lol. Out of curiosity where d...

I start my ASN program on Jan.7th!! I am so excited and completely panicked as well, I've gone crazy buying school supplies and books.lol

For my school I was only required to take math, reading, grammar and Vocab so I can answer any questions about those sections. I want to add that on my particular math section at least 50% of my questions were based on....FRACTIONS! I also had about ...

Thanks! I actually called them today and found that out. Lol. I'm going to have to speak to my boss to see if I can leave a little early to take the course on the 19th.

I'm in!! Woot woot! I'm so excited and nervous all at the same time! This week is going to be a great one, I got in today, halloween is wednesday(love), my bday is Thursday, and the orientation is Friday! Has anyone signed up for the CPR Class yet? I...

Congradulations you two! I still have to attend the nov. 2nd orientation as an alternate, which honestly IMHO is harder than just beging told, 'No' straight out. I'm calling next week to see where I am on the alternates list. again good luck to ever...

I got my letter. I'm an alternate.

Just study the four. I was told not to even bother taking the others. They have absolutely no bearing on admission. Also if I was to do it over again I would study only half as much as I did for the math and really study the Vocab/Grammer.

Its extremely annoying to keep getting hassled by my mother and boyfriend about why I'm not in the program. They just don't understand. Do you mind me asking how many points you have?

How is everyone doing with the waiting?

Not at all. Both the reading and math were easy for me.(and I've always done horrible on math) I would say the toughest part honestly was the Vocab. I would highly recommend getting a HESI book and read/study over the Vocab, that section brought my e...

I'm taking Design I, Oceanography, American History, and Stress Management. My plan was to get my AA and my A.S in nursing. I too applied for radiology and respitory therapy. However I didn't know the math requirement for Radiology was MAC1105(I took...

Does anyone know when they will begin sending out responses? I have several big events planned in October and I'm stress that I'll find out its a "no" an ill be to depressed to do anything. In the mean time I'm trying to full my days with school. So...
