In response to what the class is like... in addition to ChemStickPro... 1. Don't be the teacher's pet, let others answer. 2. This program is not organized, get used it it and don't complain about it--For those asking if you can work while in school, it's too hard to keep them updated with a working schedule when everything can change from one day to the next. Would recommend working as little as possible first quarter so that you can get a sense for what you personally can take on. 3. The teachers do want you to succeed. If you fail your first test, don't freak out, you will pass. This applies to every quarter. Remember the passing grade for this school is very high so don't get down on yourself. 4. Get to know others but make small study groups. It will allow you to focus instead of meeting up with a big group, which ends up becoming a big complain fest. 5. Don't wait to study. Find out what works for you and plan out ahead. 6. The same study method doesn't work out for all the quarters. 7. USE YOUR PLANNER. Professors will not remind you of due dates until last minute. 8. About clinicals... it will all depend on your clinical instructor. The scrubs suck. You will hate care plans. You won't get as much practice as you expect. Value the lab/practice time at the school, it will be the most practice you will get. 9. There is no homework. Only a few projects/group projects toward the end of the quarter. You need to be self-disciplined when it comes to studies. If it's not in the syllabus, don't do it. 10. You have plenty of time to have a life. Don't feel guilty, there is plenty of time to do everything. 11. It's not a clique, it's called making friends. 12. Everyone doesn't sleep with everyone! And if they do, no one cares. We are all here for much bigger goals. 13. At the end of quarter, we all go out. Celebrate! Who care who is the obnoxious drunk?! We've survived another quarter! 14. It will go a lot faster than you can ever imagine. Enjoy it and make life long friends. 15. Congrats and welcome to Seattle Central Nursing!

I'm in for winter! Did anyone else get accepted elsewhere? I also have a spot with Seattle Central and don't know how to decide!

I was also accepted! See you in the fall!

I did as well! Let me know if you do decide on going there... We can start a fb group or something

@hudabelle, congrats! What school?

That's strange. Mine didnt have the typo. It read: "The open application period is from February 1st to March 31st. Responses from Nursing Program Admissions Committee will be sent out by email on April 5th, 2013." In previous years, I heard they didn't find out until the end of May but they might have changed that that for this year. Fingers crossed. 6 more weeks.

@AnnaKaris, A bit off subject... I too applied to SCCC. Did you get an email from them about your application? When did they receive yours? There were so many people in line at the post office! I'm scared that I wont get in.

Did anyone else get an email from Cebrina? I sent in my application on Friday morning and I received an email that they received it today, 2/4... What about everyone else?
