Is it too early to start one? I couldn't find one. Maybe too early?

I am planning on applying to the TT 2nd degree BSN program in May in hopes to begin in January 2017.

Anyone else?? Anyone in the program currently or recently have any info to share??

Thanks!!

I'm in Lubbock. I don't think the outfit will make or break you. I wore slacks, a blazer, and a colorful top. There were slacks and blouses, suits, and dresses when I interviewed.

This might be a dumb question, but all I own is cardigans from teaching. Where can I find like a womens/juniors blazer that doesn't swallow me?

Today is the last day to submit the essays. Sorry to ask again but:

Did anyone get a confirmation email that their essay/email was received from Ms. Martinez?

Hi hopefulnurse2018! I never got an email to confirm that they received my essay. I just called this morning to confirm and they were quickly able to tell me that they did receive it. You might just want to give a quick call to be sure/for piece of mind! :)

Yes, I did but only after I emailed again to make sure she received it.

I'm not sure what you have in your area, but Kohls, JCpenney, Dillard, TJ Maxx, Banana Republic. I wore my grandma's lol but it worked

Macy's is having a good sale right now, I just got a new skirt there. If you don't want the jacket to swallow you try sizing down?I always have to size down in suit jackets. H&M also has some suit jackets with nice flattering cuts at affordable prices.

It's always a good idea to invest in a new suit too not only for the school interviews but hopefully for the job interviews that will follow after you get into the program! :)

I was thinking of a good old dress pants, shirt and, maybe a tie. Where did all the suit and blazers talk come from?:) It's a hundred degrees plus outside!:nailbiting:

I just called the office to make sure. The staff member in the office quickly replied that it had been recieved even before I introduced myself. It appears they saved our phone numbers in their phone system. Maybe you should call them to be sure.

No, I never received an email from her with more instructions or a confirmation of my received essay. I wasn't able to call today to verify. :/. I just had to reschedule my interview and was able to thankfully (online). I thought it might have closed at 3 with the essays.

As far as a blazer, you might try Banana Republic Factory store. They're usually having good sales and have nice stuff. I saw some blazers at one a couple weeks ago. They also have petite sizes, if you're petite. Not sure what area you're in. :)

I just found this site and have a question for people that have been through the program. I applied to the Lubbock program and received an invitation for an interview. I am concerned about the difficulty of the program in terms of how hard it is to take 21 hours a semester and do clinicals. Can someone give me some insight on a typical week, difficulty of tests, reasons that students drop out, etc?

I did not receive a confirmation email that my essay was received.
