Shady Grove. Free parking. Smaller class sizes, thus more individualized attention. Free parking. Great professors. Did I mention free parking? If you're going to be a commuter and the distance to either campus is the same, I'd choose Shady Gro...

You have clinical in the first semester, but it is a shortened clinical that does not extend through the entire semester. You'll learn more in class about that. We signed up for it after classes had already begun. In second semester, you have adul...

Do you have a Mac? The interactive form does not work on Macs. I don't know why. You'll have to do it the old-fashioned way on a Mac. Or, if taking it to Baltimore in person or mailing it is a problem, you can fill it out interactively, then prin...

It's up to you how you want to send things in. I sent it in piece meal. I sent my acceptance of the acceptance in with the deposit right away. Then I sent in the health hx/immunizations form/ PPD results/CPR card all together. Then at the end of ...

I am a current student at UMSON. Summasun016, your wish is my command. There's a whole lot of information on the UMSON website. Go to nursing.umaryland.edu then click on "accepted students" on the menu to the right side of the screen. Then choose...

Well, now it might seem useless, but when you have a patient with a broken carpal you might be glad you took the time to study it so you can discuss the problem with the other healthcare professionals and still sound like a professional yourself :)

https://www.usaa.com/inet/pages/advice-military-movingcareerhurdlesspouses?akredirect=true This is a great article about the fact that half of the states have legislation in place to make it easier for military spouses to transfer their licensure to...

It works the same as any other class - you'll get out of it, what you put into it. You'll have to work harder on a daily basis because the class is fewer weeks in length. But the beauty of summer classes is that they're over before you know it! I ...

Your essay is done well with the exception of the pedophilia story. Hugs and prayers to your sister. What she went through will stay with her for life and I am so sorry that it happened. Many people write very quality essays for school entrance ap...

Hi Norcal21438, Congratulations to you! I was called on Wednesday with my acceptance and got my letter in the mail today. Have you joined the Facebook group?

The lady on the phone with me said they send out a letter that has the acceptance form with it and we have two weeks to either accept or reject the UMSON's offer. So there is a little bit of time to think about it and make the decision if you're wav...

I think they notify everybody together and in no particular order. I have a B.S. in music, but was accepted to the traditional program (I don't think they have an accelerated - I think it is the same 4 semesters for everybody unless you already have...

I received my phone call this morning. I am in - Provisional admit. Now just to finish my pre-reqs with Bs :) Anybody else attending the Shady Grove campus? That is where I will be :)

Congratulations! I think you're the first on this thread to post an acceptance notification :) I don't know how the submission of transcripts and monies works, but wanted to offer you my congrats!

I applied to Shady Grove as well. And now it's APRIL!! We'll find out this month. Good luck everybody!

Dear fellow future nurses, I would like help with a decision. Knowing that the ADN vs. BSN debate has raged on for decades, I do not wish to contribute to the debate. There are pros and cons to both and often, life circumstances choose for us. I s...

Gegelish, you can take prerequisites at your local community college or another university. It's up to you. Of course, a university will require that you be accepted by their institution first. A community college will be less expensive as well. ...

I feel your pain! Statistics is very difficult. It isn't really the math that is hard, in my opinion. It's the way you have to change the way you think about numbers. I'm a solid math student - straight A's all the way up through Calculus. But s...

Try not to fret too much about the professor. I'm making a career change to nursing and already have a four year degree and some grad work under my belt (all in music, if my screen name didn't give that away). In all of my years in the classroom, s...

I recommend researching the nursing school programs you are interested in. Pick the ones that are your top choices and list out all the pre-reqs they require. Then go from there. I am limited to the location I am in, so I chose two local programs ...

And as for what to do in the meantime . . . are you taking any classes right now? Having other assignments to work on can help. If not, how about setting some short term goals. Maybe a fitness goal or start a new hobby? Or plan a weekend trip to ...

I've done the thumb/one-finger typing before, ERKsome! I totally get it :) Thank you for your reply.

I know! I feel the same. But the time will pass and April will come. I have received one acceptance to the ADN program I applied to (my backup school so I'll at least start school in the fall no matter what), but I'm waiting on news from the BSN p...

My apologies for the salutation. I thought I posted this on the Maryland State Nursing Programs forum and was speaking to mostly student nurses and future student nurses. Perhaps the mix-up was fate though and current nurses can give me some advice...

Wow, what an exciting problem to have! Well, my instinct is to tell you to go for it. There's no guarantee that you'll be accepted to the Summer 2013 programs. Could you forgive yourself for waiting if you end up wait-listed (or worse, rejected) f...
