I know that this title could be confusing, and I am not sure as to where this post should be as I am a first time poster. I want to say that I have gotten a lot out of this site and read some awesome stories. The reason for this post is as follows: I graduate from The University of Texas at El Paso this August 2012, and I am barely going to get my fingerprints today for my declaratory order. I need to submit my application to test, and was reading that it must be submitted 120 days before I graduate! Well it's a little too late for that, so I was wondering if anyone has submitted their application to test late as well. And, I was wondering if that affected your ATT date at all. I am confident that my declaratory order will not go into the investigations department, but I am scared that the NCLEX testing process will be delayed. I am getting married in the same month and moving to the Austin area to look for jobs and, quite frankly, extremely stressed out. My Fiancé and I are looking for places to live and the decision is really based off of where I can get a job. I would like to apply for the RN Residency Programs at either St. David's, or Seton, but the deadlines are approaching and I would not even be able to work until Feb. 2013. I would love to start caring for patients as a BSN RN as soon as possible! AHHHH! Thanks to those who read this post/rant.
