  1. RN, ADN being obsolete

    So, for those of you who are waxing poetic about the number of available jobs, I'm definitely open to relocating for a year (or two) but would love some direction on where to even begin to look. Would...
  2. If the website said 20, that's what it will be. They usually take 150 for regular track and 20 for fast track. The school received a grant, and for 2 semesters in a row, they accepted 180 regular...
  3. I know for this particular group, they took 30 students, but I don't know why so many seats are
  4. Each university will have their own lists of prerequisites for their RN to BSN program. You should be able to go to any university website and search for RN to BSN - most of them are online, some are...
  5. The summer Complex program is offered to those students that are in the Fast Track program. Those students are usually already LVN's, EMT's or have other experience. They start with Mental Health in...
  6. Ok - so this turned out MUCH longer than I expected lol - but you can refer back to it in the future :) So, your first semester is Foundations/Fundamentals (those terms are kinda interchangeable)...
  7. Yes, of course you can - that's why I posted :). I had A's in all 3 sciences and a 98 HESI score - but don't be discouraged if your scores are lower! One of my favorite midnight-study-break-pastimes...
  8. Once accepted, you'll eventually turn everything in to Immunitrax (you'll get instructions for paying your fee, signing in etc. later). You'll upload ALL of your vaccine documentation there for...
  9. If you want, you can turn in all of your previous vaccine records to your current PCP who can validate and update your records. My doctor didn't fill out the form, he just signed it and attached my...
  10. Spring 2018 TCC Nursing Students

    Take your 3 science classes, A=100 points, B=80 points, C=70 points. Add your points up and divide by 3. Then add that number to your HESI score and divide by 2. If your score is a 90 or above, you...
  11. Hi there! I'm in the program now as well (2nd to last semester - woot!) and am happy to answer any questions :) The reason your vaccinations are brought up, is mostly because of the Hep A and B. If...

  14. Spring 2018 TCC Nursing Students

    Haha - it's going! It's harder than I thought in some ways and easier than I feared in many others. I've learned so much, grown a ton and am making life-long friendships along the way. Be prepared to...

    Looking at this power point from the TCC nursing department should answer all of your questions! Basically, you need to take the 3 science courses to apply to the nursing program, but you need to have...
  16. Spring 2018 TCC Nursing Students

    So sorry about the multiple posts lol. I'm a current TCC Nursing student and am happy to answer any questions :). I applied last summer (just like you guys) and started in the Spring 2017. Summer II...

    Oops - this was meant to go with the above question: You'll actually go Spring 2018, Summer II 2018, Fall 2018, Spring 2019 and Fall 2019 - you'll graduate Dec 2019. Those students that start Fall...

  19. Spring 2017 TCC Nursing Students

    There really isn't a "typical" day because the schedules vary wildly (they even include nights and weekends!). Some people go to school 3 days a week, some go 2 days a week. Your first semester...
  20. Spring 2017 TCC Nursing Students

    I don't know of any "formula" that will predict your chances. Some one will have personal, family or medical issues come up and not be able to attend this next semester. Every time that happens, an...
  21. other non traditional students / moms

  24. Spring 2017 TCC Nursing Students

    I'm not exactly sure what score you mean? I looked at the last TCC application thread (here's the link – you should really should check it out, there's great info!)...
