Union University ABSN FAll 2013

U.S.A. Tennessee

Published

Hello All,

I was just wandering is there anyone else out there applying for the Fall 2013 Cohort at Union University Germantown Campus.

I got into UTHSC's BSN program, but I'm still sticking with Union!!!

Here are my reasons for choosing Union University:

1. Location is in a nice area of town

2. Classes are very small and mentoring is available

3. High pass rate (it's been 100%) on the NCLEX test

4. Less traffic

5. Good parking

6. Christian foundation

7. Terms instead of semester

8. Curriculum eases you in to clinicals rather than jumping right in

Cost is high (2x as UTHSC), but I didn't get a loan on my BS.ed so I think it's worth the experience to get one now!

Hi Everyone!

I have been accepted into Union's Hendersonville campus for fall 2013. I am trying to decide if I should go to Union or go to University of Rochester. They are both great programs so I am having a really difficult time making a decision. Thank you for your list Tinker!!! If anyone has any advice or comments about either school let me know! :)

THAT is an understatement!

I've lived in Hendersonville for 15 years. It's not too bad after you get used to everyone talking like Gomer Pyle.

It IS ungodly hot. Union just built their facility in the last ~3 years so it should have good a/c.

Feel free to ask me about H'ville, glad to help.

Has anyone else purchased their nursing books? I get mine in the mail today from B&N.com. Free shipping is awesome! I'm still waiting to see what books we need for statistics and pathophysiology. We only have 7 weeks till orientation!:smug: Anyone else out there starting in the fall, particularly at Germantown's campus?

Hey guys,

I just found this discussion and thought I'd join in. I also will be starting the Union-Germantown accelerated cohort this fall. Like many of you, I'm really excited to finally get started. Started taking pre-requisites 2 yrs ago and it seemed like this would never happen. I also chose Union over Univ of TN. I just really believe in the school and I have had several family members graduate from there (ed. degrees). Not to mention that the area is much nicer. I will commuting from Brighton, TN (about an hour away) but its worth it. Anyway, just wanted to congratulate all and I will hopefully meet some of you face to face in August. Oh, and my name is Chris.
