    @ Holly, I think I read in some of the past threads that there were some students who were able to work part time and still take classes. When I had my interview Julie did say that it is pretty...

    Hi Amber, I actually had to take the BLS class at my community college. It's probably cheaper taking it at a hospital though. I have no clue about knowing what tier we are in, please do let me know...

    @ Philliesgirl, I wasn't able to do early admission because of a previous drop in my gpa a few years ago. Julie had told me in my interview that if it were not for that I would definitely had been in...

    simplyblessed replied to simplyblessed's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    @ Awarren, I'm really not quite sure about when it will be an official BSN program. From what Julie told me, they are waiting for Penn State to officially put their stamp on it, so I wonder how that...

    @ awarren, thanks for looking. I thought I must have been overlooking it. Hopefully they are still running the program. I'm surprised at the one year commitment, Underwood Memorial Hospital in...

    You never know what will happen, just because one school didn't accept you, doesn't mean the next one won't. The same will apply after you graduate, you may have to apply to a few jobs before you get...

    I had no clue about the loan forgiveness program! I tried to look up more information about it but wasn't able to find it, could you send me the link, I would like to read up on

    I want to be a neonatal nurse practitioner, so going for my BSN is not even an option, it's an absolute must! I'm so sorry to hear that about the current situation for ADN and diploma nurses right...

    simplyblessed replied to simplyblessed's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    @ Chuckster, during my interview I asked the same question and was told that it's pretty hard out there for new grads across the board, but having your BSN helps. Most hospitals in the Philadelphia...

    simplyblessed replied to simplyblessed's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    @ Amber, well I'm glad you got to talk to her! The main thing is she has an idea about you, doesn't matter if it's over the phone or in person. She did say they received a little over 400...

    simplyblessed replied to simplyblessed's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    @ Awarren No, the tier wasn't on my applicant status, I was told that when I went up to the school. I had to do the same thing you did and also had to write an addendum explaining my circumstances....

    simplyblessed replied to simplyblessed's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Well then I guess I just have to keep my fingers crossed! I was told I would have been in tier 1, but I had one rough patch that had caused a few of my grades to slip and even though I recovered...

  18. I got an extern job in the NICU!

    simplyblessed replied to NICU Kristen's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    Congratulations!! I was under the impression that an externship is considered an internship of sorts, so my assumption is that you would be hired as a GN after its over? I'm not even a nursing...

    @ awarren808 - As you've been through this process before, I have a question if you don't mind answering? I just checked my application status today and it says that it's under RAP review,...

    simplyblessed replied to simplyblessed's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I have been on pins and needles since sending in my application back in December! I too like to speak things into existence and pretty much 'know' that I will be getting my acceptance packet. I've...

    simplyblessed replied to simplyblessed's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    She said that the older TEAS test was easier and they used to look for a higher passing rate. But with the new TEST a 74 is not like getting a C but rather a B. That made me feel a lot better. She...

    simplyblessed replied to simplyblessed's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Hey Amber, It is much easier to reach her by email than catching her on the phone. I've only managed to catch her by calling her once. As for the interview, it went great! The good thing about it...

    simplyblessed replied to simplyblessed's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I do believe that the interview is just with Julie. She told us at the October orientation that it was good to schedule an interview with her because she can actually help give good points when they...

    Wow SUPER CONGRATS! I am doing everything in my power to become a NICU nurse; and with God's will and Grace that will be my reality in the next two years! I hope it's everything you dream it to be...
