1. OU ABSN 2022 Program

   dphom replied to SaraG1's topic in Oklahoma

   I honestly do not recall, but I’d say at least a 3.5 in either category. Maybe a little more forgiving with science GPA. At the time I applied, it was only about the two GPAs.. they don’t look at work history or what your previous degree was in. ...

   Congratulations! So exciting. Those coming from out of state, welcome! I recommend living off campus. 😀

3. OU ABSN 2022 Program

   dphom replied to SaraG1's topic in Oklahoma

   I don’t remember exactly.. just that it took months. I got my FNP at OU. I work in interventional pain management. I thought the program was fine! Finding clinical placements were the most challenging thing, but I got lucky and had them in line...

4. OU ABSN 2022 Program

   dphom replied to SaraG1's topic in Oklahoma

   Oh gosh. I remember there were some long days and some short days, but you’re doing something 4-5 days of the week. An exam or quiz is every 1-1.5 weeks. Clinicals were 2-3x/week. Intercession courses during breaks. Majority of my class pas...

   Thank you!! Tip/advice: Make a facebook group page for your classmates to share documents, assignments, free discussion, etc. My class utilized it heavily! For those who get accepted, you’ll have a “buddy” in the class ahead of you. Ask if th...

6. OU ABSN 2022 Program

   dphom replied to SaraG1's topic in Oklahoma

   Hi future nurses!! I graduated the ABSN program in 2016. I am now a recent grad from their NP Program. Just randomly decided to check the forums to see what’s currently going on ? OUHSC doesn’t care to look into previous degree. Just your ...

   They look at the overall application. I think they consider GPA more though because the school probably wants to retain competitiveness and higher numbers. I know that's not very helpful. There are people who got in with minimal experience to 10+ yea...

   dphom replied to hungry?eatAsnickers's topic in NP Students

   Research and know what exactly a FNP is and what they do; especially in Oklahoma. Organize your thoughts and figure out your strengths (clinical and as a student), how that sets you apart from others, and relate that your role as a FNP. Practice, be ...

   Thank you! Yes, I got waitlisted via email and got a call that there was a spot that had opened up.

    Just got accepted to OKCs program! Good luck everyone. Keep pushing for it!

11. University of Oklahoma ABSN 2017

    dphom replied to LaDiosa_M's topic in Oklahoma

    They say that... but we all never did! :) I don't find it necessary unless it's been years upon years since you've had any type of anatomy or physiology and don't remember what a body part would be if they were to mention it. It really comes back to ...

    If anyone finds out information about the waitlist or anything from the school, please post! May answer questions we have or didn't think of. Sounds like there's a good number of us on the waitlist for so little spots, which sounds a little discou...

    I got waitlisted too. Okc has 10 FT and 15 PT spots, so I wasn't expecting to be top pick.

14. Oklahoma City University Fall 2015

    dphom replied to 2bNurseJG2008's topic in Oklahoma

    Born and raised in Oklahoma, the area where OKCU is is historical.. so you have a mixture of hipster/old and renovated housing mixed in with the "rougher" population. Personally, I would take the 15-20 minute commute and drive from a better part of ...

    dphom replied to hungry?eatAsnickers's topic in NP Students

    Ah, I think I know what you're talking about. It may be the other APRN programs that are more favored PT. I was told that the slots for the FNP PT/FT are just depending on how many seats are open with how many clinical sites are available, but the vi...
