  1. University of Washington accelerated BSN summer 2013

    abalone replied to Minnie13's topic in Washington Nursing

    Sorry I'm so slow to get back. I wrote a response, tried to post it and it disappeared into the netherworld of the internet. Anyway, there were 2 main deciding factors for me. 1) money 2) time. First,...

  2. University of Washington SoN Fall 2013

    abalone replied to OBrienMP's topic in Washington Nursing

    You might be given a triage situation, they have had those in the past. BUT, when you answer DON'T get hung up on the "right" answer, they know you are not an RN yet! In that situation, they would...

  3. University of Washington SoN Fall 2013

    abalone replied to OBrienMP's topic in Washington Nursing

    I wrote my answers for the essay out in A,B,C format making them very clear but I'm sure it doesn't matter. Sounds like you are set! I wouldn't worry too much about those few years as long as you've...

  4. University of Washington SoN Fall 2013

    abalone replied to OBrienMP's topic in Washington Nursing

    The first thing you learn in nursing school (at orientation, no joke!) is "DEEP BREATHS"!!! Remember this guys. Anyway, I got into UW's BSN program last year, JLoya and I are classmates. I noticed...

  5. University of Washington accelerated BSN summer 2013

    abalone replied to Minnie13's topic in Washington Nursing

    They accept 48ish students. I got in last year, paid to save my seat but, in the end, accepted admission into UW's BSN program instead. I would guess that the stats for students on the ABSN wait list...

  6. WSU BSN Fall 2012

    abalone posted a topic in Washington Nursing

    Anyone else who applied to WSU for Fall 2012? I filed my application on time (Jan 15, 2012), and got my transcripts to NursingCAS by the Feb 1, 2012 deadline. I just checked and it looks like...

  7. UW ABSN 2012

    abalone replied to abalone's topic in Washington Nursing

    Sorry, Bobobijoux, I've been traveling and away from my computer. I was accepted into both UW's ABSN and BSN program. However, I'm not sure I can say which is more competitive. They are both VERY...

  8. University of Washington BSN Fall 2012

    abalone replied to YoungIdealist's topic in Washington Nursing

    I'm going to be traveling July 5 -Aug 7 so I wouldn't be able to make it to a BBQ in mid July. But, if that work for the majority of people have

  9. University of Washington BSN Fall 2012

    abalone replied to YoungIdealist's topic in Washington Nursing

    On the topic of uniforms, I thought I'd mention something. As a graduation gift my roommate picked me up a set of scrubs from UW's South Campus Bookstore (behind the Health Science Building). The...

    Uhggggg. I've been so busy writing my public health thesis I totally forgot to apply for the UW-Harborview Nursing Student Loan Program! That application was due May 15! For some reason I had June in...

  11. University of Washington BSN Fall 2012

    abalone replied to YoungIdealist's topic in Washington Nursing

    Just got an email, SoN updated the BSN curriculum grid. Doesn't really affect us but figured some of you might be interested.

    abalone replied to YoungIdealist's topic in Washington Nursing

    FYI: If you want to know what your schedule Autumn quarter is going to look like, UW posted the Autumn time schedules on Friday. We probably won't know about the textbooks until late summer. NURS:...

  13. University of Washington BSN Fall 2012

    abalone replied to YoungIdealist's topic in Washington Nursing

    Hey, just got postal-mail from SoN about Summer 2012 course offerings (NURS 407 & NCLIN 302). I imagine all of you will be receiving it soon too! I'm not planning to take summer quarter (I'll be...

  14. University of Washington BSN Fall 2012

    abalone replied to YoungIdealist's topic in Washington Nursing

    fn2012, I totally understand. Because I was admitted to UW's ABSN program before we had any clue how the BSN admission would turn out, I filed my general UW application for Summer 2012 (bc the ABSN...

    abalone replied to YoungIdealist's topic in Washington Nursing

  17. University of Washington BSN Fall 2012

    abalone replied to YoungIdealist's topic in Washington Nursing

    I'm positive SoN will send out an email on the topic when the time is right and I wouldn't worry about registering for the course yet. UW summer registration doesn't start for another few weeks (Mid...

    abalone replied to YoungIdealist's topic in Washington Nursing

    JLoya: A summer BBQ sounds like a great idea! (just not in July bc I'll be gone, hehe) Kasko: I'm sure faxing it is fine! They had the fax number on the paper so it only makes sense. :) Like you both...

  19. Is anyone getting into nursing programs with a realistic GPA?

    abalone replied to Era324's topic in Washington Nursing

    I agree with what many have said; getting into a CC (ADN) program seems to require a higher (very high) GPA. The BSN programs, on the other hand, seem to be a little "easier" in terms of GPA. Like...
