   Traveler5 replied to FayLynn87's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

2. CNA/Tech Experience for UWOSH

   Traveler5 replied to GrenIedGal's topic in General Nursing

   Traveler5 replied to GrenIedGal's topic in General Nursing

   It's kind of cool they are letting in wait list people for the next term. I'm sure it's easier for them, and less annoying for those who got in because you don't need to reapply! They are still...

   Traveler5 replied to GrenIedGal's topic in General Nursing

   Congrats to everyone who got in! And if you got waitlisted, don't give up hope! People can and do chose to go to other schools so it's not impossible. And if you didn't get in remember you can always...

   This was me. Yes, the capstone is 9/26 to 10/7 for my cohort. Sorry about that. As for wanting a schedule, you should get a tentative schedule when you are offered admission so that you know the...

8. UW-Oshkosh Accelerated BSN - May 2015 Cohort

   Traveler5 replied to PacificRim's topic in General Nursing

   I am. I start my 3rd class tomorrow! I'm not positive what my overall transfer GPA was but I only had 1 B in my pre-req courses. I didn't have a ton of CNA experience at the time of my application...

14. New to night shift

    Traveler5 replied to USMCRN2015's topic in Health, Stress Management

    I sleep more on night shift that on days. I keep the same sleeping schedule all the time though. I really hate switching back and forth. It just kills my mood and I'm in a fog the days i try and stay...

    Good shoes are totally worth the money. The replaceable insole seems like a nice feature. I will definitely try some on. Lucky for me I live near a huge shoe store that stocks them (per the brand's...
