I graduated from ASU's nursing program in August and loved it! It seems to have a good reputation with the hospitals. While I can't speak for how well ASU prepared me for my first nursing job (I start next month), it prepared me very well for the N...

You can do this! Nursing school with kids is not easy, but (as other posters have said) it is possible! I started nursing school with a 12 week old and a 3 year old. I graduate next month! There have been many times that I felt like I couldn't do i...

There are 17 prerequisites total, including 4 core sciences (2 semesters of A&P, chemistry, and microbiology). You can find them here: https://nursingandhealth.asu.edu/programs/nursing/undergraduate/bsn/index.htm

No prob! It's rough in the beginning when you have no clue what's going on. Eventually, you learn to kind of just roll with it. On regular class days (310, 311, 312, 330), you wear regular clothes. For lab days (320), you wear your wine top and w...

The first week was a lot of general information. Getting to know you stuff, policies, paperwork, lab tours, communication skills, and some simple lectures. You kind of dive right into pharmacology. The first two weeks seemed pretty tame...then the...

Awesome advice! Thanks for sharing! I think we should definitely start a Facebook group.

Carpool buddies would be wonderful. I'm in the west valley, though. It looks like I am going to have to suck it up an buy a parking pass. My husband works downtown but we won't exactly be on the same schedule. Plus, we have clinicals. :) Getting...

It's going to definitely be busy! Did you register yet? It's crazy to see all nursing classes on my schedule when I log into My ASU!

I don't know about MCC, but the ASU nursing program only has the seven year limit for the lab science courses. It's okay if your English, math, and psych classes are old. My psych and English classes are over eight years old and I got into the prog...

For clinicals, pants are white, tops are wine (and are customized for ASU).

No prob! I just got an e-mail. It's okay! It's exciting! Class starts in a month and a half for the summer program so I am getting antsy to get everything in order! :)

Once you get provisional acceptance, you need to pass a drug test and physical, as well as pass a background check and submit proof of insurance. My letter said that they're sending out more info next week (at least for the summer cohort) so we'll p...

Congratulations, everyone! I got accepted for the summer program, which was my first choice. Looking forward to May!

Yay!!! We will definitely get to meet. :). My name is Rachel and I have crazy curly hair. I'm getting excited! I should have asked the advisor about the post-bac admission cut off. I saw the summer traditional cut off score was 1.69. Even if ...

Has anyone else signed up for the placement workshop? I'm going on April 8. :)

It is nice to connect with someone who is applying, too. Congrats on your upcoming graduation! I graduated from ASU in 2009 with a degree in psychology. I started taking taking classes again part-time last February. I only had four prereqs done ...

It's nice to see another 2014 post-bacc hopeful! I am getting ready to apply this fall. I can't believe that the deadline is now September 1! It's coming up fast! I am planning to take the TEAS in June or July, since you can only take it once any...

I am not currently in the program, but I am applying for Spring 2014 and attended an information session this week. We were told that you can not retake prerequisite courses if you received a C or better. The only exception is that you can substitu...
