Students at MTSU?

[slynn77]

Hello! I have been studying this site for months now, and I have been trying to figure out which path to take for my Nursing dream. I have considered LPN, RN, then LPN or RN to BSN then to MSN... after months of stressing over what I should do, I decided just to pursue a BSN at MTSU.I'm a single mom, and I plan on taking out student loans so I can concentrate on school and raising my baby. I was curious though, have any of you either been in or are in the Nursing program at MTSU? How is/was it? Any experiences or advice offered is greatly appreciated! & if anyone recommends a school elsewhere in Middle TN, let me know! :redpinkhe Thanks so much.

Just checking back in >1 year later... I've now been an RN for 6 months and I felt MTSU helped me immensely. I am now practicing on a floor of a hospital where it is almost unheard of for new grad nurses to start, and I really couldn't have done it without the cut-above-the-rest education I got at MTSU, seriously. I know it is based on the person, but any new grads from other area schools have been more "lost" and less able to adapt than MTSU grads that I have spoken to and that I've worked with.

Hey- what days were your classes, what did you make on your hesi scores, and what kind of questions did they ask you during your interview?

Thanks-

I got in! I'm in 3rd semester now! And at the interview they ask why you want to be a nurse, strengths and weaknesses, what you think a nurse is, about any work experience, why they should choose you, etc.
