   What is the inclement weather policy for absn students? Do we still have to go to class if the university is closed?

   I think it says it in the MPN somewhere.. but basically they can adjust the loan amount you are eligible to receive at any time especially if certain factors change - such as your EFC/if you are awarded any other financial aid/etc. Everyone who got t...

   That's great news! I was hoping we could buy previous editions, that will save us tons of money. And that's a great idea to buy a used uniform, I think that's what I will try to do. Ddwillard, since you have been through clinicals which area hospital...

   Thank you ErinJane1 you have been so helpful by listing tuition costs! That makes me feel a lot better. I just hope Baptist doesn't have a discount tuition rate through WSSU so those of us that are not funded can expect around the same cost. Do you k...

   I don't know for sure if they have contacted everyone but I would think they probably have.. I don't think it would take too long to call 20 people. I am planning on calling Monday if I don't hear anything by then just to make sure, and if I wasn't p...

   Can you guys give an estimate on the total cost of the program including tuition, fees, and books? Looking to get some rough estimates. It seems as though Baptist has contacted everyone they were going to contact. That is good news that we can buy o...

   Thank you guys for all the information! ErinJane1 - I have a question about Baptist funding, did they pay for all expenses (tuition, fees, books, insurance) and do they still give you a stipend? I know it may be different for our year, but just looki...

   I'm not 100% sure, but I think the ATI fee goes to pay for a course to prepare us for NCLEX testing. Google ATI testing to find out more. Side note- Did anyone actually receive an acceptance letter in the mail? I didn't... oooh WSSU

    +1 on the facebook group! Have any of you gotten a physical yet? I went last week and they couldn't give me a TB test (something to do with a shortage at the CDC or something like that) but I went by the nursing department today and they said we had...

    Thanks for the info ddwillard. Do you know if most of the students in the program receive some type of financial aid? 13 months without a job is a long time. Congrats on being almost done! Oh and I emailed our contact person about WFBMC funding.. the...

    Great story I'm going to file this away and remember this when I start my clinicals!

    3k0rb replied to missemilyjane's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Just do it! Like many of you, I was on a similar boat. Mid 20s, bachelors degree in non-nursing field, decent job, but I always had that nagging feeling and wondered what it would be like if I had followed my heart in the first place and went into nu...

    OP- I have no idea about funding timelines. I just emailed the contact person on our acceptance letter today to ask if they had an idea when we might hear back from WFBMC. As for the school health insurance, it was $704 per semester, but that was one...
