ENT RN

That's awesome guys!!! Congrats!!! Now does anyone know about everything we.have to do? there is so much stuff that is required like immunization, CPR class, drug tes,t background test... do you guys know where we take the CPR class??I'm so confused and frustrated

Hey did u hear back from uic?

Man... that makes me not want to go in to the program. I also get straight A's and I don't want to ruin my gpa bc I also want to get my masters.... plus its like if I never have any time for myself thar kinda sucks, its like wasting the best yrs of your life. I feel like, if I go into this program, I'll come out depressed and aged 20yrs idk what to do now :( I only have till may 1srlt to accept my admissions for the community health program that I also applied for. Fo you know if you can take summer classes for uic?

Someone mentioned that only 50% of the students graduate?? Is this correct?? I'm scared. I would love to find out more about the the nursing program and how the classes work. I also got accepted for fall 2013 at the urbana site.

Hmm I understand how your feeling... But I applied to Urbana too and heard back. Did you give them a different email? I would call, maybe the emailing situation is off. Plus there is always next yr, which sounds like a bummer I know but don' t lose hope.

Hm... That;s strange. I got my email around 10am today. Have you tried calling. I would call asap! Call t the adviser in urbana. Check you spam. Hopefully it's there and says your accepted!

Good luck guys! Keep strong! I heard some people are not able to pay the tuition deposit and drop out, spots even open up till the first day of class.

I also applied to Community health at UIUC and got accepted.. Not sure which one to choose, nursing or health?

I got accepted thank you god!

second week of april

Ughh.... the wait is killing me! I spoke to "mike" 3-4 times he said second week of april. I'm so stressed out... I'm going to be so depressed if I don't get accepted to UIC because that's the only school I applied to for nursing, my back up is U of I community health with a concentration in health administration..... Which would be nice if i was a nurse already otherwise it's hard to find a job. What were your guys GPA's? How do you guys think you did on the essays and were your letter of recommendations strong? I feel iffy about my letters and essays but good about my GPA. 4 month wait is so long. IDK i wish everyone the best...

They aren't?? Hmm do you think it would be a waste of time to go there then? Because if that's the case.. I rather stay home and finish up my essay and submit my application today. Yea i'm a little worried about the rec. letters i really hope my professors do a good job. I',m so nervous too and the essays are hard because of the word limit... ughh i need people to proof read them. that's mainly why i'm going to the workshop

Hey juliana, I think they want one letter that speaks about how you will do in the nursing field and your academics, while the other one speaks about you as a person and a leader... i believe... Are you going to the workshop today??? I still have two more essays to go. I'm going to go to there workshop today in chicago on damen 4:30-5:30. Keep me posted!!!

Really?? I sent it a long time ago lol... I send it again.. Maybe the email address is wrong? I copy and pasted it.

I sent you the email =) let me know if you got =D what is hesi entrance exam anyways?? luckily uic does;t require a entrance exam

Heeey Can you PM me the email address?? I can't reply to private messages Apparently I can't send messages until i post 15 quality post loll. I can see the message thought =D

Best of luck to you! I hope you get accepted! I'm sure you because you probably had a killer essay considering useful edits you made in mine =D when will you know if your accepted?? let me know what happens =D

Thanks A TON! I emailed it to you. Apparently I can't send messages until i post 15 quality post loll. I'm hoping to submit the essays tomorrow =D

Can someone please read my essay and edit/comment/add anything they feel necessary. It's for my BSN application to the university of Illinois at chicago. What experience have you had in the healthcare field? I have had numerous experiences in the healthcare field. I have been working at a multi-specialty dentistry since 2010 until date as a dental assistant and sterilization technician. I have learned to work in a fast pace environment with General Dentists, Oral Surgeon, Periodontist, Orthodontist, and Pedodontist. Working at the Dentistry has immensely perfected my skills of communication with a diverse population as well as trained me to acquire exceptional decision-making skills in a high stress environment. My other rewarding experiences have been volunteering at Family Centered Hospice and Marklund, a home for disabled children. Volunteering has given me the ability to understand and interact with people from various backgrounds, ages, gender, and cultures. I was also able build strong problem-solving and analytic skills to assess and care for each person as an individual. Finally, I was fortunate enough to interview a Dietitian, Psychologist and a Registered Nurse. Additionally, I was able to shadow the Psychologist and Registered Nurse. I gained hands on familiarity of the daily duties of the three professionals. My modest experience has inspired and encouraged me to seek future education in the medical field. I have a couple more if anyone is ever so kind to read via email =)

I can also email it if you wouldn't mind giving me your email address... yes i am desperate lol

Yesss I would be forever grateful! How exactly do I send you a message? Sorry I'm new to this...
