Great!! Thank you so much!!

Does anyone know if you have to be a certified CNA, or if just taking the CNA course works?

I am! I am looking into applying to the Dallas cohort!

Thank you so much for your help! How are you liking the program so far? What's it like?

Hi Flyonn! I'm thinking about doing the Texas Tech program here in Dallas. I'm currently an ultrasound tech (for 2 years), but LOVE nursing and interacting with the patients. Would you mind emailing me so I don't clog up this forum with probably the million questions I have? :) leigh6870 at yahoo dot com

Hi SicEm! I would love if you could keep in touch with me maybe email or something to let me know how you like it? I couldn't apply this round, but will the next one for Dallas. Also, how was the TEAS? I need to take that, but have everything else done. :) My email is leigh6870 at yahoo dot com

Hi y'all! So, I totally forgot that I had posted this! I took my HESI and got an 84. Ugh! I've wanted to be a nurse for a really long time and am currently an ultrasound tech, but want to switch. Hoping it happens eventually. I have overall 23 points. Boo.

I am looking at going back to school for my degree in Nursing. I already have 2 Bachelors Degrees and was planning on getting my ADN locally at a Community College (Collin College, Brookhaven, El Centro or Northlake) , because financially it is cheaper. After getting my ADN I was going to complete my BSN online since there are plenty of schools in Texas that offer this. I eventually want to work in Newborn Nursery and would take a post-partum, ante-partum, L&D job in Women's Services as a new grad to get my foot in the door. So in the DFW area, are hospitals hiring new grads without their BSN? What if I were to already be enrolled in a BSN program when I graduate? I don't want to waste my time getting an ADN when they won't hire me out of school. Thank you!

Hello everybody! It's a little early, but I thought I'd start a thread for the Brookhaven Spring 2015 start date. How's everybody doing? :)

This may be a stupid question, but I'm looking into applying for Spring 2015. Where do you go to take the TEAS test? And how much is it?
