  1. Transferring colleges!

    Unless you want to retake all of your prerequisites, the program you apply to will see your other grades. Mostly all nursing programs require seeing your transcripts from all schools you've attended...
  2. Bay area neighborhoods for dummies

    I'm not an expert on Oakland areas, but if it's a nice apartment then it's most likely in a nicer area. I would recommend avoiding San Francisco. It's extremely expensive for what it is and is...
  3. nursing requirements

    1. It depends on the University to which you apply. Most universities have a pre-licensure BSN program-- as in you don't need your RN license to get your BSN, only prereq's and general ed are...
  4. CNA?

    Hi there! Becoming a CNA is a good route to take as a pre-nursing student. I've heard of several students working as a CNA while in nursing school. It helps with understanding the very basics of...
  5. Other SSU pre-licensure BSN applicants?

    Tall4- you sound like a competitive applicant. Crossing my fingers for you! I called the office, they said 150 applicants this year, and decisions will be around mid-April. Only a few more
  6. I got accepted!!!!

    If you can't provide proof of vaccination from your vaccination record then you will have to get a titer to prove immunization. Congrats on your
  7. Other SSU pre-licensure BSN applicants?

    RunBabyRun, that's so exciting about the ATI exam! You'll do amazing on the NCLEX. SSU has a very high NCLEX pass rate. And thank you for sharing the info! I'm glad the clinicals are for the most part...
  8. Other SSU pre-licensure BSN applicants?

    Hi! I also applied to SSU for the pre-licensure program. I applied to three other schools, but SSU is my first pick (and also the one I hear back from the soonest!) I have a 3.94 Overall and a 4.0 in...
  9. CSUEB fall 2014 RN applicant

    For the prereq GPA I have a 4.0. TEAS
  10. College of Marin Fall 2014

    Interesting, I agree with that. I know there's a huge push for nurses to get their BSN opposed to an ADN. I hear hospitals like UCSF will only take BSNs! And I've heard the same thing about ADN...
  11. Chancellor's Formula Questions

    For SRJC they factor your A) GPA for English 1A or equivalent (one course of college reading & composition), B) overall GPA in the last five years, C) core science GPA (Anatomy, Physiology,...
  12. College of Marin Fall 2014

    SRJC takes 120 students each year. They start 60 students in the fall, and 60 students in the spring. They also keep an alternate/wait list for both semesters, but I'm not sure how many. Only 300...
  13. TEAS V Practice v. Test

    Hi there! I scored an 82% and an 85% on the online Practice Assessment. I scored a 96 on the proctored exam. But with countless hours of
  14. College of Marin Fall 2014

    Aww congrats on the brand new baby!!! That's so wonderful! Kids are a handful... I have a two year old daughter myself. I can empathize with how difficult it is to go to school with kids. Good thing...
  15. College of Marin Fall 2014

    Congrats on getting into Dominican! I have a friend who just graduated from Dominican, aside from the price, she says it's a great program. I didn't apply there because the cost and the wait scared me...
  16. I know what you mean!! I'm losing sleep over it. It's extremely hard to be patient waiting on what you're going to be doing, and in your case, where you're going to be living for the next few years....
  17. That's a shame that an 87 only gets half the amount of points for Sac. Wouldn't it be more fair to do a sliding scale? I don't think too many people score higher than that, so I think your chances are...
  18. College of Marin Fall 2014

    Wow April seems really early! That's good news then, I was expecting to wait until June. Good job on the TEAS. I already took the TEAS as well, feels so good to have out of the way! I took it in...
  19. College of Marin Fall 2014

    Hi there! I also applied for COM's RN program for Fall 2014. 147 applicants seems like a pretty small and less intimidating number compared to other nursing schools in the bay area. I also hear they...
  20. It's hard to tell how many points I'll get with the essays as well. So far without the essays I have 79.5 out of 80 points. Hopefully my essays are what they're looking for! What's your #1 choice...
  21. CSUEB fall 2014 RN applicant

    I applied to CSUEB, SRJC, COM, and SSU. Seems like too long of a wait to find out! I have a high GPA and TEAS scores, but I'm very nervous that won't matter because I don't get the 10 points for being...
