  1. Brand name of cute headbands?

    vandydani replied to 757RN's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Sweatybands. They have velvet on the inside so they don't slip off your head. I put one on in the morning and I don't think about it all day (no headaches or slipping). They have kid friendly designs...

  2. Cook Children's Pediatric Nurse Residency program - July 2015 Cohort

    vandydani replied to hsamuel's topic in Texas Nursing

    Of course! My trick in nursing school was to volunteer for everything and put yourself out there. If your school doesn't offer things, join some professional organizations and get involved there. I'm...

    vandydani replied to hsamuel's topic in Texas Nursing

    Just had my interview today. They were very kind, so don't stress yourself out about it. They asked a good number of behavioral questions and then the case study and then asked for any questions. Have...

  9. Duke Spring 2016 ABSN

    vandydani replied to Sunshinexoxo1991's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I don't think anyone can comment on the weight of recommendation letters inside or outside of the duke system. If it is a good recommendation letter and the person knows you well and knows your goals,...

    vandydani replied to hsamuel's topic in Texas Nursing

    She did not say whether today was the last day. She just said she was calling today because of the snow delays and acknowledged that it was past the deadline for hearing. She seemed to have a few...

  16. UNC & Duke ABSN- Spring 2014

    vandydani replied to Rthom09's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Hey hrcr, I am also on the waitlist. I have not heard anything yet. I think that because Duke selects via a holistic process, they create their waitlist pulls after they receive deposits, that way...

  17. Increase chances of admission to 2nd degree ABSN programs?

    vandydani replied to alythan's topic in School, College Programs

    I'm in a similar situation. I would say to volunteer in your intended field (peds, gerontology, etc) and when you write your essays really show that you understand the scope and practice of a nurse...

  18. Is three times too many?

    vandydani posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi all, I am a recent graduate of college and I was not a nursing major. I realized I wanted to become a nurse and have been applying to programs. Problem is, there are very few ABSN programs that I...

    vandydani replied to Rthom09's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I was under the impression that they would be posting it by 5 PM eastern. I think they'll post it at or near that

  23. UNC & Duke ABSN- Spring 2014

    vandydani replied to Rthom09's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I believe that we will be notified of first round admit, waitlist (consideration for second round), or (according to the website) they can deny you at that point. So it's not an automatic waitlist if...

    Yeah, it also said we would be notified this month in one of the emails I received. I figured it would be next week since they said mid August and orientation for the fall admits is that next Monday...
