Hi everyone! I'm new to this forum and just getting used to things, but I have some important questions for fellow nursing school applicants.
I have applied to TAMUCC online BSN program. I am from the DFW area and am a little concerned about getting placed for clinical rotations. I spoke with a woman on the phone who said it is possible to not get placed in DFW for clinicals (meaning travel to another metroplex.) This might be okay if I knew how many days a week we had to attend rotations and how long they lasted. Is it two days a week for six weeks, 3 days for 4 weeks, etc.
If anyone has any info on clinicals that would be very helpful!
Also, has anyone else applied to this program? And if so what area are you from? Any idea on when we'll hear back about acceptance/interviews? Thanks in advance, looking forward to hearing from y'all!
Is anyone else having issues registering? I should have been able to register on the 4th but my pre-reqs were not recognized by the system. Advisor emailed today that it was fixed, tried to register- not fixed. I see now that classes are full and I can't even find BIMS 3401 Patho ANYWHERE in the registration. I wanted to try to get into the same classes as you guys. This doesn't seem to be starting out well for me :/
I would call the registrar's office. Don't worry though, a lady on the phone yesterday told me that students that MUST take prereqs in the summer will have a section for them.
Oh no! No, I did not have any problems registering, but I did have a lot of problems with the financial aid stuff. I FINALLY got that figured out. I would maybe try to call and have them fix it while you are on the phone with them. I've had to call numerous times for errors on my student account. No worries, I'm sure they have some spots that they don't show solely for the nursing students. Sorry you are having troubles though. I know how frustrating that can be
So... acceptance letters are being mailed today and tomorrow. According to who I spoke with, 17 are being sent out. Good luck to everyone and I hope to be celebrating with you all soon!
Thanks for the update MandaLeigh! I emailed our advisor today to see and was told that they would go out this week at some point :) 17 acceptance letters or 17 acceptance/denial letters??? If it's 17 acceptance, that's a lot. I've never heard of anything over like 12. Hopefully if we both get in we can do some clinicals together.
I was told that 17 conditional "invitations" to join the program will go out but statistically only 10-12 students will actually enroll because of BON rejections, immunization issues, and pre-req grades.
Did you guys take stats 1342 or 1442? Both are entry level statistics courses, but I'm afraid my 1342 won't transfer. I've looked at other public colleges and they all accept either, although I can't find info on TAMUCC's policy.

I felt like my interview went really well. I was told that we would hear after all interviews were completed, so around 2 weeks.
