Hi all! I am in WGU's MSN - Leadership and Management program and I am looking for a preceptor. Unfortunately, my unit is going through a management change and the current managers are interim and they will not be renewing their contract in April. The role of the preceptor is to oversee my quality improvement project (I'm writing a new neonatal hypothermia protocol) and to answer any questions I have about being a leader/manager in the nursing world. Requirements: WA State RN license 2 years in a leadership role (charge nurse counts) MSN degree If anyone is interested, please send me a message! I promise I won't take up much of your time and you would be doing me a huge favor. Thanks in advance!

I would definitely keep it on the 29th as well. Driving 3 hours would add that much more stress to an already stressful situation. Good luck you guys!

I just passed my last final of nursing school! Waiting to get my authorization to test e-mail and I'm interested to see how far out I'll have to schedule.

My graduating class has been in touch with many of the Seattle area hospitals and so far no one is on a hiring freeze. All of the nurse residencies are going on, as planned. As for testing centers, I am hoping they'll reopen in a few months. It took a little over 3 months for Wuhan to now report no new cases of Covid-19. That would put us right around June/July.

Hey guys, I ended up making it in off the waitlist for the Spring quarter. Cut off was 105.5 and I had 104.85, so just know there is hope even if you get waitlisted. If you guys have any questions, let me know and I'll try to answer them! Good luck to you both!

I hope everyone is ready for school to start on Wednesday! I wanted to see how many of you guys were going to take NURS 094? I registered for it but I'm still on the fence on whether I should take it or not.

I used psych 101 and medical terminology. I'm not sure if they'll let you use Nutrition since it's a required prerequisite but maybe?? From what I've heard, you can pretty much use any class as long as you are able to write a little paragraph stating how it will help you with nursing.

YOU GUYS!! I JUST GOT THE CALL AND WAS ACCEPTED INTO THE PROGRAM!! I hope it's totally normal to be in tears right now, because I am! I'll see you all tomorrow!

Hey guys! I thought I would start a thread for all of us Shoreline Community College Part-time applicants for Fall 2018. I'm currently on the waitlist for the Spring 2018 full-time program, but if I don't get in then I plan on applying to the part time for fall. I'm sitting at 104.85 points and it seems like the part-time program usually has a lower minimum point requirement so I'm hoping that's enough to get in! If anyone has any questions about the application, feel free to ask me. This will be my third time applying to Shoreline so I feel like a pro at this point :)

Congratulations! I'll see you guys at the meeting on March 7th. Fingers crossed that some people decline their spot so I can join you all!

Hey MPaige, did you get your letter?? Hoping you got your 105.9 points and made it in :)

Hey guys, just got the letter and I made it into the waitlist! The minimum cut off was 105.50. Congratulations to everyone and hopefully I'll be seeing you in April!

Hey Hady, thanks for the heads up! Do you know if the cut off was 105.0 or a little higher? I had 104.85 so I'm hoping maybe that will be enough to make the waitlist! Congratulations to everyone!

I think I will always keep the option open to pursue my MSN or something further, but I'm not sure if I will. I'll be 31 on Saturday and will be getting married this November. Once nursing school is over, I would like to start a family so I think I would put any additional nursing studies (besides my BSN) on hold for a while. Who knows what the future holds though :)
