  1. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Heather, I've read through old conversations and people were driving themselves crazy with the wait to find out. Are you taking summer classes? That may help to pass the time! Best wishes on your...
  2. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Hi Heather! Do you know how many seats Valpo has available? If you can do well on your final tomorrow and keep your A in APHY -- that will give you a score of 135 and I think that is pretty...
  3. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Thanks to all who have posted here & offered your support. I am waiting for the teachers to get their final grades in -- but I got all A's and will be applying with 152 points. So relieved....
  4. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Whew, managed a 96% in Psychology, so I got my "A" there, too. It feels so strange to be finishing classes... Off to do some more
  5. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    One final down, 3 to go! Pretty sure I got an "A" in Sociology ~ although that has nothing to do with my application. Hope you all do well on your finals this week,
  6. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    So glad to hear from everyone & I hope you'll keep checking in! Also hope Leadkrm will come and tell us when he's done with his first semester of nursing school & he can let us know his...
  7. Ivy Tech 2017 Applicants

    mhunter, I've seen lots of scores in the 130's get in on this site (looking through old threads etc). What's so suspenseful about a score like that is, it really depends on how many spots there are...
  8. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    I'm sorry, Kp. This thread is meant to be an encouragement to all of us! The problem seems to be that so many people are hearing different things from different advisors. IMO, it it says "one...
  9. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Good luck to all who are getting ready to test! I hope you'll come back and let us know how everything goes. :) I'd say if all of these advisors are advising this way, then you'll probably be fine...
  10. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Right, that makes sense to me that you can apply while you are still finishing classes that are not required for the application process. But this girl is still finishing those prerequisites. I...
  11. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    It's easy to accidentally unbookmark it when I am on my phone because that button is so close to the "prev" and "next" buttons. I've done it myself a few times. Just don't let it happen again!...
  12. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Has anyone heard of submitting your application before prerequisites are completed? I don't want to do this -- but there's a girl in my class who was advised to do so, so she did. I think I worried...
  13. Math requirement for RNs?

    Thanks for this thread. This has motivated me to continue "brushing up" with the math and algebra programs I have available at home. (We homeschooled the kids for seven years.) But to answer the...
  14. Words of motivation…or realistic advice?

    Taking care of a 7- and 2-year-old, and a home, IS a full-time job, in and of itself -- especially when you struggle with depression and anxiety. You are working part-time on top of that? And your...
  15. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    ^ and a perfect example of why I would not want to wait until the last minute to
  16. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Well, here's my friendly advice for today............. If you haven't started the application process -- if you haven't even clicked the button and "looked around" -- I'd advise you to do so now. I...
  17. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    HollyNoel ~ great advice. I appreciate having you here. :) I must agree... I have spoken to some classmates who seem to not have all of their ducks in a row & are not getting the great help...
  18. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Welcome, Tiffany! I remember reading through old threads of people applying, and then having to deal with THE WAIT. Please check back and let us know if you made it. What are they telling you at...
  19. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Did we have a bunch of posts disappear, or was I so tired, I imagined we had a conversation last night?
  20. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    No problem at all. This is why I started the discussion -- there is so much to
  21. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Kadijah, if I were you, I would seriously consider checking out Moby Max. I homeschooled my kids for seven years, and we had a membership to that site. I don't remember if you have to sign up as a...
  22. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Kadijah, having 50/60 on your pre-reqs is a great start! Having up to 48 hours before the deadline... well, that gives you even more of an advantage. I'm not trying to be discouraging in any way ~...
  23. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    More on the cautious side here, as well. My advisor is the Nursing Department Chair for Muncie. When I spoke with her in the fall, she advised me to take it at least 30 days before the application...
  24. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Another thought is that you can only take the TEAS exam two times in 2 years ~ so if you aren't confident with applying now, you may consider saving that second attempt until you feel solid on the...
  25. Ivy Tech Fall 2017 Hopefuls

    Kadijah, did you read our recent conversation re: TEAS testing deadline? The official word is that our testing has to be finished one month prior to the application deadline. I wonder if your...
