Pretty much this. Look for a little blue circle with a white "i" in it. Hover over it or click on it and it'll pop up a little box that lists all of your college's transcripts, whether they've...

Oh, nice! Ok then, I may just call them tomorrow and see if I get the same help! lol EDIT: Nevermind, NursingCAS isn't opened tomorrow, haha. And you meant the school will be checking everyday or...

Hmm, I'm not sure, but that would make sense if that's the reason. I went out to the school and asked them my question, but they said that it's something that I'd have to contact NursingCAS...

Mine's been sitting on "Verifying" since I submitted it too. But it lists that all my transcripts have "arrived". I'm going to see about going out there tomorrow and ask if, should our application...

Yea, I distinctly recall one question on the exam that wasn't in the ATI study manual...though, it was a pretty easy question (even though I had 2 minutes left in the section to hurry up and do it). I...

I just got an email from NursingCAS saying they got my last transcript(s), so I'll be going over everything one last time tonight/tomorrow, then submit it in the next day or two. I just hope it...
Well, volunteering is free...or, it usually is (I don't know of anywhere where it "costs" to be a volunteer). You probably wouldn't be allowed to do the same things as a CNA, but you'd still be able...

Thanks! Yea, I had gone over to the school last week and asked the lady at the desk, and she told me that when you register, there's an option to have your scores sent to your choice of schools....

Well, took my TEAS yesterday, and I just got an email saying that the results were sent to the school, and that the results are ready. Adjusted Individual Total Score: 89.3% Reading: 88.1%...

(Sorry for the double post in advance...) By the way, I went digging for last year's thread for Fall of 2014, here, for those who want to go through it and see if any questions they have might be...

I'm submitting mine sometime next week after my last 2 transcripts are taken care of. I would have done it earlier, and I had asked here about it in the last page or so, but the campuses are all...
I would check to see how the nursing schools you are applying to handle re-take courses and their grades. Some will take the higher of the 2 grades, while there are others that will average the 2...

Awesome, thanks for the info! I was caught up in doing stuff at University (hospital) today so I wasn't able to go out to SAC and NVC to get my transcript forms turned in, so I'll have to do that...
I think that when I took A&P, my professor was teaching it for either the first or second time, so I was in a similar situation (his masters was in Zoology, but he had taught med students some of...

Tomorrow, I'll be half way done with my study book for the TEAS (got just a little bit left with the math part). A lot of this stuff I remember from grade school. Some of it I'm trying to recall, as...
There's a lot of straight up memorization involved with A&P (bones, muscles, arteries, veins, etc.), along with understanding how everything works together which can prove to be a challenge. I...
Pre-requisite courses are almost always taken before you start nursing school (though there are cases where people take a few of the last ones during their first semester of nursing school proper,...
I'm just applying to one program. I know a number of the faculty as their other roles (some have been my doctors for several years and other healthcare providers who are also professors/assistant...
This is going to be my last semester of pre-req courses, then I can apply. However, I am still going to take 3 more classes in the Spring that I think might come in handy in the future. They are...
While I'm not in the program at the moment, I am finishing up this semester and will be taking the TEAS soon and then applying for Fall of 2015. Mind that the deadline for applications is February 1...

Well, I've got all but 2 of my transcripts submitted to NursingCAS. I still need this semesters classes (Microbiology at SAC, and Intro Chem II at NVC), but I'm going to get those sent out maybe a...
Well, from what I've seen on this forum and elsewhere, California (and New York, I think) is a state whose nursing schools are substantially more competitive than other states. I would do some...
I'm not in Arizona, but when I went to an information session for the nursing school I hope to attend, a group of current students got up in front of the class and offered a bit of experience-related...
