  1. UTA AP-BSN clinical schedules?

    I am finishing up my pre-requisites and will be applying in January to start the UTA AP-BSN upper division/clinical nursing classes starting in August 2014. For those of you that are already in the program, what are the clinical schedules like? Spe...
  2. UTA AP-BSN Partner Hospitals

    Clinical days vary by location and class - I had a variety - Sat/Sun, Sun/Mon and Fri/Sat. Your test day will always be the same day each week...ours was Wed but I think the odd year cohorts are on Thurs. We also did clinical at different locations...
  3. UTA AP-BSN Partner Hospitals

    You don't have to be partnered, I was not partnered and was accepted into the program. I just graduated in May. If you search the UTA AP BSN website you can find the "scoring" criteria for acceptance. They give extra "points" for a variety of thin...

  6. Texas Children's Nurse Residency Summer 2016

    Congratulations! My head is spinning with anticipation. I am not very confident though...interview was OK but don't feel great about it. Also, I was not one of the lucky ones to get to interview for 2 spots. I think that may have been because I w...
  7. Texas Children's Nurse Residency Summer 2016

    I think the number of positions varies from unit to unit. From the comments in this thread, it sounds like some were allowed to sign up for more than one interview slot.
  8. Texas Children's Nurse Residency Summer 2016

    Is it kind of weird that I almost don't want to know? HA!!! As long as I haven't heard a "No" there is still hope...It was just so competitive so many applicants for so few spots. I don't have any other offers - I still have a couple of application...
  9. Seton RN residency July 2016

    Just checking in to see if anyone has interviewed or received an offer from Dell Children's? My applications (for several units) have all said "under review" for several weeks. I am hoping this is still a good sign but I get a little more discourag...
  10. Texas Children's Nurse Residency Summer 2016

    Does anyone know the start date? I am also curious as to what the schedule will be like at first. Do they have some classroom training followed by joining a preceptor? Or do you jump right in on the unit? Good luck to everyone! Anyone who joined ...
  11. Texas Children's Nurse Residency Summer 2016

    Suivezmoi89, I'm in a similar situation. I drove 3 hours to get to Houston on Sunday night because I had another appointment on Monday. I couldn't get out of the house I am staying in yesterday but the water was receding last night when I went to b...
  12. Seton RN residency July 2016

    Anyone interview or get a position at Dell Children's? I applied for several positions and haven't gotten called for an interview. My applications all say "under review."
  13. Texas Children's Nurse Residency Summer 2016

    I was just wondering the same thing - if the open house is still happening tomorrow? I responded to the email invite for the open house but haven't heard back...
  14. Seton RN residency July 2016

    Hey pktenn! Which department at Dell called you for an interview? I sent an email to the recruiter last night - but haven't heard anything... Did you apply anywhere else in the Austin area (besides Seton)?
  15. Online College Chemistry with Lab

    University of Texas at Arlington offers an online chemistry class. It was awesome. In addition to the recorded lectures by the professor, you have homework and exams that are also submitted online. For the lab portion, you order a kit and do exper...
  16. St. David's Austin Graduate Nurse Positions

    Does anyone have a contact for the graduate nurse postings at St. Davids? Or know where to get more information? I don't recall that they had an open house like Seton and the FAQ on the website don't answer my questions. From the FAQ, they said t...
  17. St. David's Austin Graduate Nurse Positions

    So, it is only the NICU positions that list Acute Care experience is required. Even though the job title had "Graduate Nurse." I believe technically if you have less than 1 year experience you are still considered a "graduate nurse."
  18. Seton RN residency July 2016

    I haven't heard anything from Dell yet either. Anticipation is brutual!
  19. AP-BSN at UTA: do you HAVE to complete in 15 months

    I am in the AP-online program and will be graduating in May of this year...only capstone and 1 exam left! The answer to your question is yes you have to finish the program in 15 months. The courses are specifically outlined and there is zero flexib...
  20. Seton RN residency July 2016

    Hi all, I received the email to complete Part II of the application last night. I applied for several positions at Dell Children's. I know it is a little too soon for me to hear just yet but am curious about others. Has anyone been invited to any ...
  21. Scott & White Summer intern 2016

    Wondering if anyone has applied for the Summer 2016 Baylor Scott & White in Temple? If so have you received a phone interview/screen yet? I applied exactly a week ago - just anxious for that phone call!
  22. UTA online AP BSN program- with a baby

    Congratulations on the baby and acceptance! With a newborn and lack of sleep it will be tough - heck having a newborn is tough without anything else. With that said, I just finished my JR1 semester in the AP program. If it makes you feel better, I ...
  23. Working during AP BSN (not RN to BSN)

    Thanks for your feedback! I am working to get my hours reduced to 25. It will probably be sometime in the first semester. I figure if I can just hang in there do it one day at a time and stay organized and focused I can manage.
  24. Working during AP BSN (not RN to BSN)

    So those of us starting the Spring 2015 AP BSN cohort have just left our 2 day orientation on campus. I know they strongly suggested that we work no more than 16-20 hours a week during the 15 month program. However, I have heard of many working wit...

    Thank you for your feedback! I do have kids and I am a single mom. I have help from my mom and am working to get my hours reduced to 25 - which is the minimum to keep benefits and insurance. I have a little flexibility and get to work from home (I ...
