Congrats!! Was that with the pedi heme/onc unit you mentioned? They didn't want me making a decision until they had pedi spots finalized, so I'm waiting patiently to hear something.

Has anyone heard about jobs at CHOSA? I received a verbal offer last week from one of the adult units I interviewed with, but as of last week, they said they were still working through things on the pedi side.

I applied as well and had my phone screening this week too. :)

They missed the 80% pass rate by one student in 2015, so they're close. If their pass rate isn't 80% or better this year, then they go on Conditional Approval and wouldn't be allowed to admit any new students in 2017. If they don't bring up their pas...

Be sure to start on your vaccinations and titers ASAP. Some people put off their titers till the last minute since they had been vaccinated before, only to find out that they were no longer immune.

The way they are implementing changes right now isn't all that fantastic. The school has to show the Board of Nursing they're doing something/making changes to improve the NCLEX scores. All they're doing right now is they've made changes to the ATI r...

Congrats to everyone that was accepted!!! If you guys have any questions, there are some of us that are currently in the ABSN program on here. We'll check in periodically. Noticed some of you have already seen some of the issues the school is going t...

Hi Stephen! You'll be there pretty much every day for first semester. Two days a week will be longer days (for our ABSN class's summer semester, it was something like one day from 8am-3pm and another day from 9am-3pm with 12-1pm for lunch) and then t...

I'm currently in the UTHSCSA ABSN program. There's a couple of us on here if you guys have any questions as you go through the application and registration process. May take us a few days to reply, but we'll check back when we can. :)

I'm in the program right now as well and scored a 92 on the TEAS and had a 3.3 GPA.

I'm not sure when we need stethoscopes and watches by, but ended up getting a Littman stethoscope and a cheap watch from Amazon. The ATI assessment is supposed to be a critical thinking exam that we aren't able to study for. I believe there are 40 q...

Yeah, mine show as Summer, but the content for most of them is Spring 2015. Patho shows Spring 2015 dates and material, 3272 and 3273 have the Summer 2015 calendar/schedule, but when you look at the readings assigned and books required, it shows Jarv...

All the courses on Blackboard still need to be updated except for 3272. All the others are either set to Summer 2014's schedule or Spring 2015's schedule still.

You buy by zone, so I purchased Zone 3, which includes lots 3, 9, and 10. Lot 5 is part of Zone 2.

You can now view required books on the Bookstore's website. For a lot of the books, their "Buy Used" price is the price you can get it for on Amazon new.

The only other thing I know of is a watch. (Regular watch, not a digital one.)

Yeah, the attendance policy is referred to in the syllabus for lab, but it doesn't seem to be online anywhere. I'd email the teacher just in case.

I asked about NURS 3270 in the email to her, but she didn't answer that one, lol. Wrote her back, but I think she had already left for the day. I'll be sure to let you know if I hear anything on Monday. Most of the books we're assigned are the same o...

Emailed Debbie to ask about books in case the person I spoke with yesterday didn't have the right info (it didn't sound right that we'd have to wait until orientation). She confirmed we should use the books listed in the summer schedule. :)

We can now log in to Blackboard, but it doesn't show any course content yet.

I just called the school to ask when an official list of textbooks will be released and they said they didn't know and that sometimes professors email students to let us know what we'll need and that we should find out more during orientation. Told t...

They're not doing permits online anymore, so you have to go to the school to get one. They said they aren't doing permits online because the site usually assigns you Zone 5 and they have other zones available (pretty much all zones are available).

FutrNP, I chose a Zone 3 parking pass.

Does anyones student account show a hold for the criminal background check again?

Yeah, I heard that about tests and notes. We also apparently have an ATI critical thinking test the second day of orientation. Do you know if we receive lecture slides in PowerPoint format? It's nice to record lecture and take notes in PowerPoint so ...
