I have a friend who was #17 on the waitlist get in! So don't give up hope! But you do have to be ready for a last minute call from the office. We had someone get accepted the morning of mandatory orientation when I was an undergrad!
Looks like I'll be joining some of you this fall! I got in! For those that don't get in, don't give up! Call the office and schedule an appt. with an advisor. They will tell you what areas to work on for a stronger application and they only offer th...
I was in the cohort right before you Eric! We had 1 student get into the fnp from my class but she was waitlisted first. I wonder if it was just an exceptionally competitive year.
I'm so sorry, there's always next year! I'm only in my first of year of being an RN so I guess I'm preparing for a rejection as well. But we'll see. I feel like it's so competitive right now
Congrats to your coworker!!!!! I still haven't gotten anything. I wonder if it depends on the track. Being that fnp is the most popular it might take longer than the others??? what track did your coworker apply for?
I wouldn't worry about the website being updated. I handed mine in by hand and it still says "not received" under official transcripts and the printed application. The online thing is new for them and they haven't fully transitioned to a 100% online ...
I just submitted my DNP application tonight! I have heard of people working full-time but I know it's challenging. I will probably be working a .9 at the hospital I'm at which is 6 12's (day shift) a pay period. I'm also applying for fnp which tend...

I have been an LPN in WA for almost 9 years and I will be finishing my BSN in June. I have worked in various places throughout the state and my advice would be to skip the LPN to RN bridge program and go straight for your bsn and here's why: 1. Many ...

I love the UW program but I was definitely torn between attending SU or UW. I know a professor at SU and so I was able to learn a lot about their program, so when I was accepted at UW I had a tough decision to make. At the end of the day, I'm glad ...

SU actually has 75 slots for transfer students. They are in a separate class from the regular SU pre nursing students. Hope that eases your waiting stress! Source: accepted in 2012.

I wish I could be more help but I ets'd a little over a year ago! I did work at Madigan when I was in the Army as a medic/lpn. I had worked with a lot of great Army nurses, and Air Force nurses who did the commissioning program and had no regrets. ...

Mostly hospitals in the Seattle vicinity, with Evergreen being the furthest distance. I thing during the community health/psych rotation you might end up as far as Everett or Tacoma but its only that one qtr, I believe. Hope this helps! Good luck!

You're right, NCLIN 306 includes both nursing lab and clinical. The lab portion is done at school and then you have one day a week on a med-Surg floor. Each qtr you are assigned a clinical site and you stay at that hospital all qtr but then it will m...

Congrats to everyone who made it one step closer! Once you complete the proctored essay, they re-evaluate the whole application where each piece is looked at.

Also, if you're moving to Denver there is a USAH in Aurora that I was mobilized with called the 5502nd. Basically, my home unit at Fort Lewis transferred me to that unit in Aurora and then mobilized me to Fort Hood. Again, being flexible makes life ...

I can't help you much with the differences between guard/reserve because I only did Army Active and Reserve. Be very careful about the loan repayment program. I haven't met one person who actually got their loans paid back, and I served for 8 years. ...

I love it here and I think the majority of my classmates feel this way. They really want to see each student succeed. Our lectures are big with about 90 students but our lab/clinical is 8. The large class lectures don't bother me at all. We do small ...

I did rather poorly on the proctored essay, in fact, I walked out of the auditorium and totally wrote off my chances at UW. I spent way too much time doing the elementary math and not enough time on the essay. I don't even remember if I completely f...

I just wanted to drop by and wish you all luck in your application process! I'm sure you all worked really hard to get to this point! So now is the time to just sit back, breath, and relax because once you've started the program, there isn't a whole ...
