Hi, I start my nursing program in August and wanted to know what is better renting or buying when it comes to the actual nursing textbooks? I usually rent my textbooks but one of the nurses that I work with says she regrets not keeping her books, so...

Just wanted to start a thread where students (previous, current, and future) from the nursing program at Wayland can vent, talk, ask and share ideas and questions. Maybe it can make life easier and less stressful. So share and ask so we can help each...

No they didn't that's why I didn't accept the spot needed time to research my options before I gave up my classes.

I agree with pp. have many interviews lined up if ur coming all this way. I've known ppl that have gotten hired in SA from out of state with out a face to face, anyway I like Corpus lots of things to do but Christus is a low paying company compared t...

They didn't accept my credits from Wayland baptist but maybe u'll have better luck. Talk to the advisor she's pretty nice and helpful!!

I no longer go there!! But even if you wanted to go there which I advise against, they are not accepting students into the nursing program anymore. They lost their privileges until they get to an 80% nclex pass rate. Janderson111 I'm going with bapti...

Baptist health in San Antonio is only like $24,000 if you take prereqs with them. If you have your prereqs done which I think you do then it's $19,000 I believe. It's on their website. As for the the school I think it's number one in San Antonio for ...

I'm an ER tech and I'm not an EMT. I'm a medical assistant. I also have my CNA but have never used it, I've always worked in clinics as an MA. I just got hired about 3 months ago so I'm new at it but the only difference for me is foleys, starting IV'...

Well I just got accepted into 2 programs for the Spring, wonderful yes I know. So like everything in life there's pros & cons. I'm really stressing over this & need some advise please!! Here's the spill… For the past couple yrs I have been wo...

It usually takes awhile for that blue card. Where I went for my scan they filled out & gave me the original form that I took in with me to show the school that I actually did it. You'll prolly get in soon if it's been a couple weeks.

What do u mean kmoc? Angelicalvn2rn I think I might need to do that. They said they're flexible so maybe it will work if I don't schedule myself the night before clinicals so I can be there on time

Thanks George!! I'm 7pm-7am so it will interfere with clinicals if clinicals start at 6:30 I'll be all tired in class but clinicals is what was worrying me!!

Yes but I just started working night shift due to my hubby getting laid off so now I'm stuck deciding if the schedule will work for me I have to let them know by the end of today

Hey guys have any of you got the schedule yet?

Thanks for the info!! I'm not really a test taker but I like the no lecture part lol. I also have a family & a full time job but clinicals are 3hrs away. So that's my biggest issue right now. I also hate the whole 2.5yrs. I already took so many p...

Thank you guys so much for the advice!! I've been going back and forth with this. I would hate to have to pay for that NCLEX more then once. Then like y'all said there goes more time and money.

I got a re acceptance letter for the spring but I also got accepted to an ADN for the spring. Teachers/teaching sucks there. Most of us had groups where we all taught each other but that final ATI got me. I was paying all the attention to their slide...

Didn't know this, wish my school changed their policy. I was out of a job & scrambling for a cheap plan when I got accepted

Have you tried county/state clinics? They are usually cheaper.

I would look into your school again because if you're accepted into the program you should be able to do it there. Or go to a clinic & ask for a cash paying physical, show them the form you need filled out. Usually clinics are cheaper if your va...

Just rent the ATI study manual.

What don't you like about the program? How r clinicals? I work night shift & have 3 kids so this is why I'm debating on the ADN home program or WGU. I can attend the ADN program because it's a day program but it would be exhausting since I'll get...

Teresasupermama what cohort are you in? I was looking into Houston. I think next cohort is April for the first 6mo then the nursing clinical part starts September 2015. I'm still debating because I have a program I can attend here at home that I'm wa...
