IMO, you'd be better off going the community college route. If you're in Arlington, that'd be NVCC. Excellent NCLX pass rate. Plus, you'd save a ton of $$$, and job prospects after graduation are...
Best of luck to both of you! I just finished up at NVCC - pinning was Tuesday. Don't stress too much over the TEAS. Seriously, they really are a lot like the placement exams. Your GPA shows that...
Hey, guys! I'm Kelly and I've been stressing about getting accepted since January when I submitted my application. What a huge weight off my shoulders to get that acceptance letter! I've been taking...
A 2014 forum sounds great! If someone sets it up, please let the rest of us know. Another thought - I remember seeing where a new class of nursing students started a facebook page. Anyone...

I'm noticing so many inconsistencies with the confirmations of them receiving the applications. I got a letter in the mail, but did not get an email. It seems that some folks got both, and others...
TrulyBlessed1 - Did you get your packet in yet? Keep us posted! ncy28 - We're definitely in the same boat. Sooooo nervous! I'm also expecting to see traffic on this thread buid up as time goes by....
I think that's what makes the wait so difficult. There's no way of knowing what your GPA/TEAS scores mean unless we have everyone else's to compare them to. No way at all of knowing if they're tops,...
Still nervous. I wish I could just put it out of my head for a while. I wonder if there's any way to find out if there's an average GPA or test score for applicants? Not what is required by the...
