I'm applying to the fall nursing program in January. I'm super excited but I still have some unanswered questions. I tried calling the Nursing Dept at the South Campus and left a message but have not heard a response.
I'm trying to find out what teas version they are testing with in the spring for fall entry. I have read tons of threads from TCC for the past few semesters and it is nice to start a new one for nursing hopefuls like me.
I'm taking Micro in the fall and getting a math class knocked out for BSN. Anyway, hope to get some responses.
Lol I love that! That I really cute. My family and boyfriend definitely understand the anxiety but not the other people, like work. My sister also applied to TCC nursing program too but I'm nervous for her probably more than me lol. My mom and stepdad are both in the health care field so they definitely understand! Just scary!!
I too just simply typed those few magic words into google one night and the forums popped up. Thank goodness for that! Like the rest of you, I'm sure my family is starting to go mad every time I bring up nursing school. My husband is becoming a broken record now. His response is always "You'll get in..." in a less than enthused tone lol. The first few times I bugged him about it, he was really supportive and uplifting, but after about 100 times, I think he is hoping for that letter just as much as I am haha.
I've gotten that same response (in a less than enthused tone, haha) a couple times from my hubby, too! But usually my husband can tell if it's really bugging me, or if I'm overly stressed about it and then he'll be a little more endearing about it, talking me through my worries.
At least we all understand each other haha. It is nice to have people who actually get it. My husband was asking me the other day if I was going to try to meet up with y'all at orientation if each of us gets in. I told him I'm going to wear a name tag with my name and "Anotherhopeful" under it haha.
I actually browsed the allnurses Store last week to see if there were any buttons or any inconspicuous items we could get our hands on to identify ourselves as a part of the allnurses group, but I didn't really see much. We should come up with something though. If anything, maybe each of us could get one of the allnurses coffee tumblers or something. Just a thought.
Heyhey! I first heard about allnurses by googling around different nursing school stuff and thankfully I found this website! I hope we all get in and can finally let everyone around us know haha. My boyfriend is tired of hearing me talk about it too.. his comment is "don't worry you will get in.. your smart". That does NOT help me lol. I was thinking the other day that a lot of us are probably people that research or look for information online... basically proactive. That in itself says we are "go getters" haha nursing schools want people like us :) right? lol
Definitely Pina! That is exactly what I tell myself. I was thinking about it the other day and it actually makes sense. The people who are actively trying to do well and really want to make it into nursing school probably come here. I think that is why I'm not too worried about some of you guys doing better than me on TEAS scores and what not because I know you are all probably the cream of the crop. The fact that my scores are fairly close helps me to believe I have a good shot! Haha.
I had Googled something about the TEAS to kind of have an idea of what this test was all about and I was directed to this site. I read probably all the threads from prior years and decided to post a question on one of the threads. Loly saw my thread and directed me to the Fall 2011 Thread. Thanks a lot Loly......:).
I totally spent my evening reading the TCC Nursing Student Handbook last night. It is hard to read that and not get nervous. I can't imagine how camp success will make me feel. Hopefully, I get to attend.
I actually ran to the mailbox yesterday to make sure I din't have a letter saying my application couldn't be considered. I did not have one, so I guess that is a good sign.
Let me get this straight: Rejection letters have been/are being sent out? Sooo... every day that goes by w/o a TCC envelope for the next say week is actually a GOOD thing, right? And we should be hoping NOT to see anything from TCC for now. I wonder if ALL the rejections are mailed first, does that mean that as more time passes w/o one, the more likely an applicant is to receive an acceptance?
I found AN about 2 yrs. ago. I was searching for info on TCC's nursing program and read every thread that mentioned it.
I'm torn about revealing my "true identity" if I get to orientation. Hopefully we can use AN to anon. vent when we are RNs!!! Maybe I can get a new screen name since I will have used more than 3 wishes if I am an employed RN at that point!
