And there do have weekend clinical sometimes, but not every semester. They didn't have any weekend clinical options for level 1 for the upcoming fall. And like someone mentioned above, you don't always get the choice you want. It's seriously like hunger games during the registration time lol

If you have to work everyday M-F then Charity's program won't work for you, just being honest. Working full/part time will be hard but it's doable, however you must have a job that will work with your schedule. I work full time, but I only work 3 days a week at a hospital from 7pm to 7am and I usually work on weekends to avoid scheduling issues with class. And you may get a clinical that is 12 hrs once a week, but you wouldn't start that clinical until about 2 months into the program. The first couple weeks you're at charity, then the next month you're at a nursing home...and then after that you'll finally start your 12 hr clinical. To give you an idea of what the sched will be like I'll give you my sched set up: Pharm 830-1030 on Thursday. Nursing I Aug 18-Aug 30 730-130 on Tues Nursing I Sep 9-Sep 30 730-130on Wed Nursing I Oct 6-Nov 24 (end of semester) 7-7pm on Tues Nursing I Lecture days (the entire semester) 1030-1230pm Thursday and Fridays It's kind of confusing at first, but basically I have either class or clinical everyday except for Monday. And then just think about the study time outside of class..A typical M-F 9-5 type of job just probably isn't likely to work. I'm not trying to discourage you, I just know that I would want to know specific details on how a program runs before I started. If your job could be flexible around your school hours, then this could work, but it's definitely something to discuss with them. And to give you an idea if you'll get in or not, for the fall 2015 people got in with 65 for a profile score..So I'd imagine if you have this or higher, you have a very good chance on getting in.

I don't know the answer to your question, but if you call 504-568-2670 they can tell you. They always pick up, so I would just keep trying to call. If they don't pick up the first time, call right back, sometimes they are just on the other line with someone. If you're trying to transfer any nursing classes (ie Pharm), then I would imagine you would probably have to have a letter of good standing from whatever nursing school you went to for your LPN program.

I agree that you should go for your MSN since you already have a BA. There are many programs for this, even more if you decide you can do it online. But if you want to go for the BSN, if you change your mind about doing it online, there are so many programs that allow you to get your BSN if you're already a RN. These programs are mostly only 12 months long, and there are a few that are shorter. Uni. at Texas Arlington has an online program for the RN-BSN and it is only about 9 months long and only cost around 9-10k. There are many options for you out there, I think you just need to do more research. Good luck!

I found the page :)

My facebook isn't finding this page for some reason :/

When I calculated my score I came up with a 80, and this was my first time applying. I'm sorry to hear you didn't get in, but definitely talk to an advisor and see where you stand and how to improve your score. Don't give up and keep pushing, you'll get in :)

I just got my letter, and I was accepted. There was no big envelope though, so if you get a regular size envelope, don't freak out like I did. Good luck to everyone!

You could be right. But I was going off the profile sheet, because that's what it's all based on and what the advisor discussed with me. But who knows honestly, we've all been hearing different things lol. I just need them to send the letters out already!

When it says Cumulative College GPA, they mean your overall GPA from all of your transcripts (all schools you have attended). It can't mean Delgado GPA, because not everyone who applies has taken classes at Delgado. At least that's what the advisor told me

I don't know about the transfer credit thing, you should call and see though. As far as those stats affecting your score, with the W in only 1 class and the D/F that's 15 points taken off from the total of 100 (110 if you count the bonus). The HESI score will give you 15 points out of the 30 you can get for HESI, so that's another 15 points taken away from 100/110. You didn't mention your CSN gpa so I can't tell you how that affected your score, but that category is worth a total of 25 points. If you get the profile sheet, you'll see what I mean by all this and be able to know your profile score and how your stats affected that score. No one knows the cut off score for this semester so no one can say if you have a good chance or vise versa. We're all in the same boat at this point, just waiting for the final word. Good luck to you!!

I'm not sure if that is calculated in your GPA or not. But it does make you lose 10 points on your profile sheet

Thanks for the information, I'm planning on going tomorrow to go get all the health requirements except for the Tb test, I'll get that one close to when school starts

I'm a little worried about the Hepatitis B Titer. I need the series of shots first, and that takes about 7 months, which is well past the registration date. How does this work?
