  1. I am 99.99% certain that you must open the exam to have it record as an attempt.
  2. Many of those facilities are places we put students for clinicals. They actively recruit our grads into residency programs.
  3. Could something have popped hot on your background check?
  4. The Education degree is tilted toward academic education- not professional development per se. (They're all like that around the US and it baffles me) Leadership is more hospital/ facility focused.
  5. Only the school can answer that. Generally- they will want to examine a syllabus for the course (the university should be able to provide this) to make sure the same content is covered - unless there is a transfer agreement between the two schools. But really only the schools can answer that.
  6. I would apply for ADN programs as well. Far lest costly, same NCLEX/ RN at the end- and since you have a previous degree- you can do an RN-to-BSN very quickly once you graduate.
  7. 1. I think having some experience as a CNA is the most important besides your science GPA and TEAS. But every school looks at different things- so it is important to know the requirements of the schools you are considering. And DO consider more than one school. 2. Every school I know of will require a criminal background check at some point in the process. They also likely have questions on their applications that will screen for this. I hope this is helpful- and good luck!
  8. You have to be an RN is all.
  9. I wouldn't think so- esp. since even here you have been able to reflect and own the error. You'll likely have to explain it- but otherwise I think you would be fine. (I used to make admission decision for a nursing program- and I would have accepted you)
  10. That is incorrect- and if you would be willing to share that person's name (privately of course) I'll make sure they get connected to the correct info. There are dedicated prelicensure (PL) enrollment people because the policies and such are so different from the rest of 'big WGU'. Sometimes when the PL people get overloaded with applicants- one of these others steps in to help out. I suspect that's who you communicated with. The preclinical term starts as I mentioned previously. You have to get all of the courses completed as well as compliance (immunizations, background check etc) done in that six-month term in order to qualify for the clinical part of the program. So if you get everything done- you are guaranteed a spot. BUT if you don't you lose the chance basically forever.
  11. It really depends on where in the state you live. Indy metro area has multiple start dates per year. Elkhart/ Ft. Wayne, Vincennes/ Evansville areas tend to only have on in Feb/ March.
  12. You are 100% correct. ALL major religions stress serving our fellow man. “For you have been called to live in freedom, my brothers and sisters. But don’t use your freedom to satisfy your sinful nature. Instead, use your freedom to serve one another in love.” ~ Galatians 5:13 NLT
  13. There is hope but it will involve complete honesty, owning what happened AND a solid plan for making certain it NEVER happens again.
  14. If you have had a clean record since- the Indiana BON will make you jump thru some hoops but you should be OK. (I have experience as a Director of an IN nursing program)
  15. WGU is a non-profit, fully accredited and the rules were written before the wide acceptance of online education. Take the time to really examine the issue and then come back. This was an OIG investigation.
