  2. TWU Spring 2018

    S7ud3n7_Nur53 replied to snapoutofit's topic in School, College Programs

    Yeah I applied quite a while ago and never heard anything, I don't think they give you any kind of official update. Pioneer portal should show receipt of transcripts and nursing cas should confirm...

  3. Is a Bachelor's degree necessary for Nursing School?

    S7ud3n7_Nur53 replied to FrankM100's topic in Texas Nursing

    Edited: Sorry I originally misunderstood the question! No I do NOT think getting a bachelor's is necessary for your consideration to the programs. TWU is the only school that gives you a small "bump"...

  4. TWU Spring 2018

    S7ud3n7_Nur53 replied to snapoutofit's topic in School, College Programs

    I'm concerned about the accuracy of my points as well so I scheduled a phone meeting with an advisor. Seems like many people on the forum have done that as

  5. University of Houston 2nd Degree BSN Spring 2018

    S7ud3n7_Nur53 replied to nrvhy's topic in School, College Programs

    I am a little weary about this program because they would not accept any of my college credits in English Composition. I went to a small private school across the country with a non conventional...

  6. Working and Nursing School

    S7ud3n7_Nur53 posted a topic in General Students

    Hi everyone, I am planning to attend a nursing program in the spring of 2018. I have been working full time and managed to take 6 prereq classes (mostly online) last semester without totally losing my...

  7. Working and Nursing School

    S7ud3n7_Nur53 replied to S7ud3n7_Nur53's topic in General Students

    Wow I can't imagine going through school AND working AND taking care of your family. That's incredible! Do you think working as a CNA in a hospital gave you any benefit in regards to experience and...

  8. Working and Nursing School

    S7ud3n7_Nur53 replied to S7ud3n7_Nur53's topic in General Students

    All I need is "possible" lol! I have done pretty well managing my time as long as I do get a break eventually. One program I am looking at has summers off so that might give me some time to

  9. Starting Over at 25

    S7ud3n7_Nur53 replied to Paula378's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am 25 also and made the decision last year to start over and change careers. And when I'm done (hopefully) I'll be thirty, flirty, and thriving lol. Seriously though, it's never too late to change...

  10. TWU Spring 2018

    S7ud3n7_Nur53 replied to snapoutofit's topic in School, College Programs

    Do you have any details about the estimated cost of attendence? I went to an info session but they did not give us any printed materials about cost. There is generic info on the TWU website but...

  11. TWU Spring 2018

    S7ud3n7_Nur53 replied to snapoutofit's topic in School, College Programs

    Hah I feel exactly the same, I wish we could know NOW! From what I remember from some older threads - they seemed to notify people 1-2 months after the application deadline. You could stalk an older...

  12. TWU Spring 2018

    S7ud3n7_Nur53 replied to snapoutofit's topic in School, College Programs

    Have you taken any of the practice exams offered by ATI? My practice exam score was within 1% of my actual exam score - that would be a really useful way to see if you're ready to retake it. I think...

  13. TWU Spring 2018

    S7ud3n7_Nur53 replied to snapoutofit's topic in School, College Programs

    From what I have seen on the forums and the info sessions I went to, the Dallas campus is much more competitive that the Houston campus. If you have a bachelor's bump or TWU bump and decent GPA/TEAS,...

  14. TWU Spring 2018

    S7ud3n7_Nur53 replied to snapoutofit's topic in School, College Programs

    Ah that stinks that you had to decline the first time, but sounds like you will definitely be offered a spot for spring. Are you able to give me any info about the parking options students are...

  16. TWU Spring 2018

    S7ud3n7_Nur53 replied to snapoutofit's topic in School, College Programs

    Yes they are only looking at GPA, TEAS, TWU student bump, and prior bachelor's degree bump. When you you at the info on NursingCAS it reiterates this. The good news is that they only take your most...

  20. Received job offer, but have interview for my first-choice facility?!

    S7ud3n7_Nur53 replied to MotesRN's topic in General Nursing

    Either way, it's speculation. I currently work in a saturated field where many people are looking for work. And once again, mentioning I have other offers has only done me good. Too often, women are...

  21. Received job offer, but have interview for my first-choice facility?!

    S7ud3n7_Nur53 replied to MotesRN's topic in General Nursing

    "There's too many nurses looking for work" is really dependent on what area you live in and what the market is like

  22. Received job offer, but have interview for my first-choice facility?!

    S7ud3n7_Nur53 replied to MotesRN's topic in General Nursing

    From a non-nursing perspective (I am currently switching my career to nursing), any time I have mentioned that I have another job offer - the outcome has always been good. You will become a more...

    S7ud3n7_Nur53 replied to CRNA1115's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Great thank you! I wasn't sure it was appropriate or not to ask people you work

  25. Getting into TEXAS CRNA school

    S7ud3n7_Nur53 replied to CRNA1115's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Thank you so much for such a detailed response. Do you think having second degree/accelerated BSN would make an applicant less competitive? Also how did you go about finding someone to
