  1. MSN Leadership/Ed or MSN-FNP?

    I appreciate your response to my post and I totally agree with your reasoning! I actually received similar advice from the nurse educator on my unit and I think the FNP route would be best suited for...
  2. MSN Leadership/Ed or MSN-FNP?

    Hi all! I have just been accepted to a master's program in Leadership and Education, a program that I'm excited about and I feel that it would be a good fit. I also have applied to two FNP programs...
  3. John Tyler Community College Nursing Fall 2015

    They don't ever communicate over weekends, and you could hear Monday! And don't worry about registration, the one on Monday is for summer, we can't register until July or so for fall! Plus you'll have...
  4. John Tyler Community College Nursing Fall 2015

    Hi everyone! On Monday one of our instructors told us they were selecting the new class that day and that there may be more than we have in our group which is 70. We all got emails and I remember...
  5. Yes, absolutely!! I've never felt uncomfortable where I live, since it's a mostly quiet, residential area. Personally, I feel that the only places you might not feel safe in walking alone at night...
  6. I do! Henrico is a huge area, and for safety, I'll just say I live in the west end. I really like it but my fiancé and I don't have kids so we're kind of out of place here. I'll DM you with some...
  7. I figured since you posted in the VCU thread! April is beautiful here, so at least if you do decide to come you'll have lovely weather to walk around the campus--there's not much to the medical...
  8. Congratulations on getting accepted to two ABSN programs!! That's awesome. Just curious if by VCU you are referring to Virginia Commonwealth University? I live in the Richmond area and once applied to...
  9. South University or University of Cincinnati

    I went to UC for my first bachelor's degree and had many friends in the BSN program, and they loved it! I know it's a little different than the MSN, but I highly recommend UC, especially the nursing...
  10. John Tyler Community College Nursing Fall 2015

    I'm not sure if they look at the GPA from the previous bachelor's degree, but having one may help. I have a BS in business and while I had a high-ish GPA from that, I don't think that was considered....
  11. John Tyler Community College Nursing Fall 2015

    I really like it so far! It's the end of the third week and we just had our first test and quiz this week. Everyone in the program is great and the instructors are wonderful! Feel free to ask me any...
  12. John Tyler Community College Nursing Fall 2015

    @rwc29--I am a first semester student at JTCC and after applying during the fall period 2014 (July-August) I got my acceptance letter on October 17th. You can expect a similar timeframe, they probably...
  13. John Tyler Nursing Program Spring 2015

    I'm in the traditional program, and ended up buying the set with physical books. I debated over and over whether or not I'd use the hard copies, but I tend to study better with a physical book in my...
  14. John Tyler Nursing Program Spring 2015

    I only have to take Nutrition, everything else is done! I may have to take Sociology again if they don't allow me to use the credit from my previous bachelors. But I plan on continuing on to get my...
  15. John Tyler Nursing Program Spring 2015

    Congratulations SadieMay!! Can't wait to meet you all at orientation
  16. John Tyler Nursing Program Spring 2015

    Congrats Kizmit and NurseNae!!! I'm so excited for both of you, it's well deserved! Maybe I'll see you at the orientation in a couple
  17. John Tyler Nursing Program Spring 2015

    I'm excited to tell everyone I got in for the traditional track! I received a letter via email about an hour ago! Good luck everyone :) hope to see some of you in
  18. John Tyler Nursing Program Spring 2015

    I also haven't received anything as of yet. I appreciate everyone's positive energy! It's been helping a lot, and I have to work 12-7 today so I'm going to be a nervous wreck until I can come home and...
  19. John Tyler Nursing Program Spring 2015

    I haven't received anything either. Hoping for good news for all! Knp2365 and Morrisonsl, I'm so very sorry. I know the sting of rejection and it's never pleasant. But, Morrisonsl, I was told by the...
  20. John Tyler Nursing Program Spring 2015

    In case anyone is interested, J. Sarge just extended their deadline to apply for spring 2015 to December! They're looking for 80 students, so if you don't get into JTCC, that may be an option for...
  21. John Tyler Nursing Program Spring 2015

    Good luck to everyone! I applied to both tracks too, as well as J. Sargeant Reynolds. I'm not surprised there were around 200 applications, but it's obviously worrisome since they only take 60-70...
  22. Anyone applying to Bon Secours Fall 2014?

    @lalalan8 I'm sure this will be your year! Many times people decide pretty late that they can't attend for one reason or another! If I was you, I would be so happy, but that's probably only because I...
  23. VCU ABSN Summer 2014 Hopefuls!

    Just wanted to update all my friends on this thread who are going to be starting at VCU that I did not get accepted Bon Secours. The average GPA was 3.3 and average TEAS was 80%. Not sure why I wasn't...
  24. Which specialty would you like to end up in?

    I love neonates, my sister was one and she is the most incredible little fighter, she's 2 now! Her nurses are the reason I began thinking of going to nursing school in the first place so I'm hoping...
  25. Anyone applying to Bon Secours Fall 2014?

    I am SO happy for you! I wish I was joining you of course, but I guess I need to try harder! I will be applying to both JSRCC and JTCC, although I can't apply to reynolds for the fall because you have...
