Completely agree. It is all in what you want, and what you are comfortable with.

Everyone has there opinion on this, and that is why the question is being asked. I just want you to look at it like this. There are thousands of nurses that were borderline nursing students, however, they are unbelievable nurses. Do you think that...

I would tend to say you are partially correct with your analysis on most schools and there acceptance procedures. Schools are looking for nurses that will be successful in their program, and pass the certification exam. With that said, there are a...

I recommend the shotgun approach. It worked for me. I start at TWU next week. I applied to about twelve schools, and interviewed at 3. I was an alternate at one and accepted to one. I was accepted the day of my interview, which happened to b...

Has anyone attended or know anyone that has attended the Texas Tech Health Sciences Center clinical site? This is my primary clinical assignment for phase 2 of the TWU program. I do not know much about it, other than it is in Lubbock, Texas. I wou...

For the people that start this Fall, where did you get your books for school. Did you order them online, and if so where did you order them from. I appreciate any info. Thanks.

Who is this??? This is Tanous. Let me know. I received a message from Goose the other day. He is a member of this board, and may be able to help you. He is in school right now. Shoot me back a message. Damon

I have been accepted to school, and was in the town I will be living. My wife and I were looking at houses to rent, and decided we would rather buy a house, considering rent and a mortgage are the same cost. Besides, to me it only makes sense to co...

Does anyone know of any hospitals or groups that are offering sponsorship while you are in CRNA school, in exchange for work contracts afterwards? I have looked at all the pros and cons, but would like to see what is out there. I am looking for som...

I too received notice of my phase 2 clinical site. Texas Tech Health Sciences Center, Lubbock, Texas. It was my 10th choice. LOL!!!!! I am still pretty excited about it. Anyone know anything about that clinical site. I will be in the dorms also...

I applied to several schools but TWU was my first choice ( southern boy). Still had several applications going out when I was accepted, however, I took advantage of the first offer, which ended up being my first choice. These are the ones I can rem...

Let me give a little more information about my situation. I was accepted to TWU and will be living in Fort Worth, TX. My wife and I were in Fort Worth last week, looking for a place to live. As I said before, we were not going there with the inten...

John Information on the area would be great. We plan on moving to Fort Worth in May. I will be looking for a house to rent. Can you tell me where some good areas around TWU are? I hoping for a decent commute. I would definitely appreciate it. T...

Nothing yet. They said not till April, so just waiting to hear. I hope to get Fort Worth for family reasons. I don't want have to move my wife and kids each year for the next 3 years. It would be too hard to find teaching jobs for my wife, and I ...

I also was accepted to TWU, back in November. Congrats!

It is not that they would not let me in. In the Air Force, you have to be in for 2 years before you apply. When my 2 year mark came up, I decided I did not want to go through the military. Last year there were 24 slots for school, this year there ...

I am currently in the military, Air Force, separating in the next 2 weeks. I have been accepted to Texas Wesleyan University for this Fall. I spent 4 years in, with the intention of going to school through the Air Force. In that 4 years I have bee...

I am currently taking a Biochemistry class online from Berkley University. It is called Biochemistry X105. There are 11 lessons and comprehesive final. Not that bad of a class. I am about to take the final in the next couple of weeks. Damon

Any advice on school and places to live would be greatly appreciated. Not sure about my clinical assignment yet, but I am trying to stay in Fort Worth. If that happens I will be trying to rent a house. I have a family so, that would be my best opt...

I got accepted to TWU back in November. PM me and we can compare notes. Damon

I think that you will receive this advice from several people on this forum. If at all possible, do not limit yourself to one school. Your chances are much better if you can apply to several. One reason is , if you interview at several places, yo...

I was accepted to TWU back in November. Not sure where I am going to live though. I will be heading down in April to try and find a place. The area around the school is pretty rough, but I hear there are some really nice areas around Fort Worth. ...

The program at Xavier was shut down 4 years ago, there was a fall out between Xavier and Charity. Long time coming. LSU picked up the program the next year. Now it is a LSU/Charity partnership.

I was accepted to Texas Wesleyan with a combined 990/3.5 and my GPA was not that great either. There is hope.

If you want to be a CRNA after nursing school, I suggest becoming an anesthesia tech. You will learn more that will pertain to your future career as a nurse and as a CRNA, especially if you want to. As an OR Tech, you will learn good anatomy and po...
