1. Is nursing school possible with RA.

   CharlotteNC16 replied to jalexislopez13's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   I am the biggest proponent of 'you can do anything you set your mind to' and am so thankful to have always had a positive outlook with my RA, but did want to caution you to be realistic (and it...

2. Queens University Summer 2017 Start

   CharlotteNC16 replied to PirateRN_919's topic in School, College Programs

   The bookstore says the total cost for scrubs for lab, books, and supplies our first semester will be around $1000. I've rented books on Amazon in the past and it is almost always less expensive, so I...

3. Queens University Summer 2017 Start

   I wouldn't think so, they probably have a cap on the number of waitlisted applications. I do not have any info on that though, it is just a guess. Good luck!

   CharlotteNC16 replied to PirateRN_919's topic in School, College Programs

   Hi theia55, I was actually waitlisted last year for the ABSN, and was instead offered a place in the traditional 2 year program. The class size for the traditional program is a lot bigger so you'll...

5. Queens University Summer 2017 Start

   CharlotteNC16 replied to PirateRN_919's topic in School, College Programs

   You are very welcome! The FELS is the only one I know of so far, unfortunately I don't qualify for a lot of the merit-based scholarships since I'm married and have a joint income. I'm going to look...

   CharlotteNC16 replied to PirateRN_919's topic in School, College Programs

   Congratulations to everyone who has been accepted so far! If you're planning on taking out loans (which let's be honest, the program is pretty pricey so most of us will), you'll definitely want to go...

   CharlotteNC16 replied to CharlotteNC16's topic in North Carolina Nursing

   Congrats to those who have been accepted! I just asked PSON if any spots had opened for applicants on the waitlist yet, and admissions couldn't disclose anything. Oh well! I will keep waiting. If you...

   CharlotteNC16 replied to CharlotteNC16's topic in North Carolina Nursing

   The intro English classes required for your previous degree should work, just send admissions the course description and they will tell you if the class meets the requirement. I'll be living off...

   CharlotteNC16 replied to CharlotteNC16's topic in North Carolina Nursing

   I'm waitlisted too and am having the same issue with there not being an admissions tab once I log in. I hadn't considered the traditional track as an option, so I submitted my form saying I'd like to...

    CharlotteNC16 replied to CharlotteNC16's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Same, nothing here yet! I've only received the same transfer evaluation letter and the email to set up my Queen's email account. Nothing I see shows degree progress.. That would be great if we started...

    CharlotteNC16 replied to CharlotteNC16's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    That's great! I hope these 6 weeks will fly by ... it sounds like we should start receiving letters the first week of March. One piece of good news admissions mentioned was that they receive a few...

    CharlotteNC16 replied to CharlotteNC16's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    No worries! I just dropped my check by admissions (Withers House office) since I live in Charlotte and wanted to check out campus :). They only take a check or money order, so otherwise you have to...

13. Queens University ABSN Program

    CharlotteNC16 replied to CharlotteNC16's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    2015-16 was the only term offered when I applied a few weeks back also. That should be fine! There is a place on the supplemental application where you can enter Summer '16, so I don't think it is a...

    Good to know. Well, my application is submitted so I will just hold tight until Spring when acceptance decisions are made. Thanks again for your input, I appreciate

    That is great you did well on the NCLEX, I do feel better knowing you had no problem passing. Without hearing too much about the program, I really just had no idea what to expect - I mostly only hear...
