  1. Loyola University ABSN Fall 2017 Admits

    I'd be happy to read yours if you want to PM
  2. Loyola University ABSN Fall 2017 Admits

    Hey! I'm relocating as well for Spring 2018 and looking for places to live
  3. I start my ABSN program in January, but there is a BSN program at my current university where I'm getting my public health degree at and I've definitely heard that the vibe in the program is...
  4. Loyola University ABSN Fall 2017 Admits

    Do you remember how long after you got accepted it took them to further communicate with you on what the next steps are? I was accepted a week ago for Spring 2018 and haven't recieved any info on my...
  5. Loyola University ABSN Fall 2017 Admits

    I was just accepted for Spring 2018 at the Maywood campus. I have a 3.46 undergraduate GPA (Public Health), but I never calculated my prerequisite GPA for Loyola. I had mostly As and Bs in all of my...
  6. For full time I'd say 12-15 credits per semester. At my school, 12 is full time and 15 is required for scholarships and financial aid through the university unless you get special permission but even...
  7. 2015 Nursing School Applicants (all)

    What classes/entrance exams do you have left? I'm currently in a communications class for my com requirement, a soc class for my behavioral science, and A&P I. I'm taking micro and ochem over...
  8. I'll probably get my degree in community health sciences or human development & family studies. If I was able to find a job where I go to school at now, I'd stay in the area and apply as a second...
  9. to email or not Admissions Director

    I don't think it's a good idea. They probably have a lot of applications and if everyone emailed him/her, that's an additional thing that they have to consider. If your grades aren't as good enough as...
  10. Veganism and the pursue of nursing

    I don't see how the two have any sort of correlation. Your eating habits are your choice, just like your patients' eating habits will be theirs. As long as you don't tell your patients to go vegan,...
  11. UNR Orvis School Of Nursing

    I'm a current student at Nevada and it truly is competitive, especially if you didn't graduate from a Nevada high school. I had a friend who applied this past fall with a 3.6 or 3.7 I believe and was...
  12. A&P 1 lecture or lab? Whats harder?

    I'm taking it this semester as well and from what I've heard lecture is pretty difficult because you have to know all the functions, where as in lab it's just
  13. So far I've taken: General Chemistry Intro to Molecular and Cellular Biology (not a pre-req for nursing school but for the other bio classes) Lifespan Development Nutrition Core Math Anatomy &...
  14. Is a B in A&P bad?

    A B is a good grade, but it really depends on the program(s) you want to apply to. Personally, in the program I want to apply to, most students would retake it. My advisor told me that I want to shoot...
  15. Possible to do both?

    Hi all, I'm currently a pre-nursing college student and I eventually want to be a Neonatal Nurse Practitioner and Certified Nurse Midwife. I know that both are intense practices and require lots of...
  16. Possible to do both?

    I haven't completely figured whether or not I'd do both part time. I want to do both because neonatology has always been my main interest. I've always wanted to do it and couldn't imagine not working...
  17. I don't think that it matters a whole lot. You'll probably make more connections at a more prestigious school but considering nurses with associate degrees are competing for the same jobs as nurses...
  18. whats your plan B

    Right now my plan B is to apply to other schools. My university's program is great but I don't think it's worth applying to over and over again when I have the grades to get in somewhere else. If I...
  19. From what I've seen, most direct entry programs are either hard to get into or private schools. Do well on your ACTs and take as many relevant science classes as possible. Don't take environmental...
  20. What are you doing to relax??

    I had to take chemistry in the beginning of summer and I just got back from Disneyland with family. I don't start until the 25th but I'm moving into a new apartment and I have a retreat to go to next...
  21. Finding Entry Level BSN Job in Nevada

    I go to school in Nevada and know someone who got a job at a local hospital right out of nursing school with his BSN. It was at Renown in Reno and they do train new grads. You won't necessarily get...
  22. I chose Nursing as my major! College Freshman

    I think that if I had any advice as a pre-nursing major going into my second year and as someone who knows a tremendous amount about my school's program, it would be not to be too cocky. Nursing...
  23. Got into nursing school....Should I wait?!?!

    I think you should really think about whether or not you want to go to nursing school anymore. Not very many people would suddenly be conflicted on whether or not they want to go. Nursing school isn't...
  24. straight out of highschool and lost

    A BSN takes about 4 years, give or take some time. Depending on whether or not your credits from high school transfer, it can give you an edge. Some AP tests no longer meet the requirements by some...
  25. Specialty

    I've always wanted to go into the NICU. After having a L & D nurse come talk to my class, I also want to do a few years in L&D before going back to school for my DNP and becoming a neonatal...
