    SammiN replied to alinkastar's topic in California Nursing

    Good luck today! I hope you all do well on your exam. I have been in constant communications with school officials and am finally enrolled in the OB course that starts next month. Hopefully, I don't...

    SammiN posted a topic in California Nursing

    Hello, I was a Navy Corpsman and was eligible to challenge the LVN board without having to go to school for it. Once I obtained my LVN license, I applied to the LVN to BSN nursing program at National...

    SammiN replied to SammiN's topic in California Nursing

    I went to school in California. I didn't realize I posted in the international forum. This is my first time starting a

    My friend is also applying to the same program as you. She's scheduled to take the teas next Wednesday at

  8. National University LVN-to-BSN 2015 cohort 7

    SammiN replied to alinkastar's topic in California Nursing

    I've been on the wait list for those classes since May. National says cohorts come first. They have also told me that since those classes are hard to get in to that they will test me out. Again, they...

  9. National University LVN-to-BSN 2015 cohort 7

    SammiN replied to alinkastar's topic in California Nursing

    I completed the LVN to BSN program at National, but I'm in a very unique situation where I am still not eligible to take the NCLEX, because I challenged the LVN board due to my military experience and...

  10. National University LVN-to-BSN 2015 cohort 7

    SammiN replied to alinkastar's topic in California Nursing

    That's great! You did awesome, and 86% gives you 25.8 points. As long as your gpa is high and you didn't repeat any classes I'm positive you'll get in. You did an amazing

  11. National University LVN-to-BSN 2015 cohort 7

    SammiN replied to alinkastar's topic in California Nursing

    There are other books that can help you, but I recommend focusing on the ATI study guide to help you. The science portion is the hardest, but if you focus on the other 3 sections you should still get...

  12. National University LVN-to-BSN 2015 cohort 7

    SammiN replied to alinkastar's topic in California Nursing

    The ATI study guide is a great resource for the TEAS since NU has a contract with ATI. Throughout the nursing program you will have to take ATI exams and pass with a level 2 in order to pass the...

  13. National University LVN-to-BSN 2015 cohort 7

    SammiN replied to alinkastar's topic in California Nursing

    It has to be 60 days in between exams if you're taking it at NU. If you take it outside of NU there's no time frame that you have to wait in between each exam. If you are applying to other schools you...

  14. National University LVN-to-BSN 2015 cohort 7

    SammiN replied to alinkastar's topic in California Nursing

    Good luck to both of you and I hope both of you get in. You can also take the TEAS at SDSU every day until you get the score you want. NU let's you take the TEAS an unlimited amount of time, you just...

  15. National University San diego July 2013 cohort 35

    SammiN replied to turttleB's topic in California Nursing

    You are not required to pay the orientation fee of approximately $3,000 on the day of orientation. NU will charge the amount to your account like it's a class. Congratulations to all that got...

  16. National University SD Accelerated BSN January 2013

    SammiN replied to ABSN2be's topic in California Nursing

    I started my program this past February (LVN-BSN). I love my classmates. I feel like I've been pretty much teaching myself. The program is disorganized and some of the teachers seem like they don't...

  17. National University SD Accelerated BSN January 2013

    SammiN replied to ABSN2be's topic in California Nursing

    Honestly, NU is very disorganized. The main reason why I applied to NU was because they are accelerated so I can sit for the NCLEX sooner. I kind of wish I applied to a different school, but the...

  18. National University SD Accelerated BSN January 2013

    SammiN replied to ABSN2be's topic in California Nursing

    Yes, that is correct. NU only calculates your science GPA, TEAS, essay, and number of attempts. My GPA was 3.8, 80% on the TEAS, and I got full points for the number of attempts. I don't know what I...

    SammiN replied to ABSN2be's topic in California Nursing

    I guess the Spanish courses are only required in the Generic and LVN-BSN

  20. National University SD Accelerated BSN January 2013

    SammiN replied to ABSN2be's topic in California Nursing

    Spanish in the work place is a prerequisite for the nursing program. I recommend meeting with a counselor and submitting your transcript to see what would be transferable. I don't recommend going to...

  21. National University SD Accelerated BSN January 2013

    SammiN replied to ABSN2be's topic in California Nursing

    The Generic Entry BSN program is 22 months and about 40k. The LVN-BSN program is 15 months and about 30k. It is possible to work and be in the program. So far the program is ok. There's a lot of...

  25. LVN-BSN National University January 2013 cohort

    SammiN replied to SDOCLAgirl's topic in California Nursing

    NU does not give you points for volunteer work. There for 4 sections that you get points for: number of attempts to pass a class, science base, TEAS, and essay. I would get the book and read a little...
