I'm at a University in California... but we didn't have a math exam at orientation... we did have a med-calc test on the first week and was expected to get 100%. You do get 3 tries though... it's just sad when you're dinged .25 points and then you ha...

@ksfiles I wouldn't worry too much about the website... if I recall, they didn't update it until you were either rejected or accepted into the program. I could be wrong though.

Hi everyone, I'm a nursing student who is currently taking healthcare informatics this semester and we've been discussing how healthcare is like in the United States. For our upcoming project, we're supposed to discuss with either a nurse educator, r...

Sorry, forgot to hit the reply button.

Hi abhinay. Thanks for the offer. I tried sending you a private message on here but it says that you disabled that option. I was just wondering how you would like for me to contact you? I can email you if you prefer that? Just let me know. Thank you.

Thanks, I didn't know there was an international forum.

Anyone who has worked somewhere other than America.

I'll be starting nursing school soon and I'm pretty unfamiliar with the stuff I need to buy or where to even begin. I was just wondering if anyone had any recommendations on what brand/type of stethoscope should I maybe purchase as a student (or even...

I wasn't able to pick up so they left me a voicemail about my acceptance. My coworker also got accepted, however they didn't tell her that in the voicemail, they just told her to call them back. They also call with a 415 area code number.

I'm about to start my nursing program and I was just wondering, is it better to purchase my textbooks or to rent them? Aside from it being cost effective to rent, I was wondering would purchasing it benefit me in anyway (aside from it sitting on my b...

@mailnursetobe, thanks for that information. One more question... was looking over the clinical dress requirements again and it said white leather shoes. I was wondering how strict they were on those since I don't have pure white leather shoes... I h...

Seems like the link to the facebook was removed since it violated terms of the website. Again, try searching for it on facebook under "USF CNL Cohort 16" and if you can't find it, either make a post on here or PM me on here for the link.

@mailnursetobe thank you very much for all that information, you answered a lot of the questions I had. I was just wondering do we purchase our own white scrubs from somewhere else, or will the school be providing white scrubs for us to purchase? Tha...

Congrats to everyone that just got accepted today! We have a facebook group that is slowly growing. If you want to connect with the other cohort members, feel free to look for the group: "USF CNL Cohort 16"

Thanks for the recommendations, I will definitely be looking into all the ones you suggested since school is only 1 month away! Also, thanks for tipping me off about putting my name on it!

You can go to the group page on facebook, search for "USF CNL Cohort 16" or you could PM me on here or through the email I provided in my other post and I'll try to add you myself.

Okay, I didn't realize that you couldn't send personal messages on here unless you've posted X amount of posts. So for those of you who can't do that either, I created a temporary email that you can reach me at for the facebook group. usfcohort16@gma...

Thanks for the tip @bboykenshin! I guess I'll create a group. If you have a facebook, you could personal message me on here with your email or name (however you want me to find you on facebook) if you don't want it displayed on here for the public to...

I'm not sure if anyone would be interested or how many more accepted people will check the allnurses forums, but I was thinking about starting a facebook group for our cohort. Let me know if anyone else would be interested! Also, I hope the rest of y...

The letter is pretty small, it basically just says congratulations and that everything else is online for you to view (I'm assuming to save paper). We won't be able to pay to reserve our fees until a few more days. But yes, there's an all day orienta...

For those of you who were accepted and wondering, I just received the acceptance letter by mail today. I live in the city, so those of you that live in Southern California or out of state, you should be receiving yours soon. Classes start on Tuesday,...

@aggiepack177: I have a B.A. in Psychology. My undergrad GPA was 3.3 and the pre-req's I took after were 3.9. I've interned/worked with students who have disabilities and volunteered on and off at hospitals for several years in different departments ...

I will be accepting. Now, I will stalk the mailman everyday until that packet arrives.

Hey bboykenshin, I submitted my application about 2 weeks before the deadline. Good luck to the rest of you waiting to hear back!
