University of Washington SoN Fall 2013

Published

Anyone applying to the UW SoN for fall 2013? Anyone else FREAKING OUT about it like I am?

Thanks for posting the books! I'm going to wait a bit to get them though because I know that last year the summer and fall starts used different health assessment books.

Jloya, I saw you at the orientation and it was great to put a face to your name! I really wanted to chat with you at lunch but I think you left :( I'm looking forward to meeting you and everyone else at the picnic!

I was also at the summer orientation/Q&A and I hope summer classes go well for those taking them! The picnic is for all nursing students (BSN1, BSN2, and ABSN) and will be held sometime in September as a welcome to UW SoN. Don't worry, they will send you more information about it later. And yes, last year the assessment text was different in the fall, so it is wise not to buy yet (although I would be willing to bet that it will also be Jarvis as it's a solid assessment textbook).

Wow Abalone, I didn't realize you were part of the panel, too! I have no idea which one was you, but you were all helpful so thanks ;)

Did you guys receive the HIPAA training email yet, list of books, or the go sign for registration for Fall quarter?

Up Vote Up Vote ×

haven't and my account with the uw compliance items has not been updated although I sent those items in almost immediately after I was accepted .I know they got them though.Anh said that she needs my patience in regards to this issue.I think this is what is happening to you too.

I see, yea Anh mentioned the same to me.

Btw, can you guys help me with these other questions:

1. When registering for classes, one can generally choose his/her own time schedule, right? It's my first time and it's quite confusing. For example, I'm trying to register for NCLIN 302 (Health Assessment), and the Time Schedule shows all these different times, enrollment limitations (10 or 72 students), or other messages (i.e. Ineligible for tuition exemption, To be arranged). Do I just pick one or is there a specific one that is meant for me?

2. Are these all the classes for Fall quarter 2013?

NCLIN 302 - Practicum: Health Assessment

NCLIN 306 - Practicum: Basic Skills of Nursing Practice

NURS 301 - Clinical Applications of Anatomy and Physiology

NURS 304 - Human Responses I

NURS 309 - Pharmacotherapeutics in Nursing Practice I

3. Does the Office of Student Financial Aid determine the aid offer only after the student's registration, when the tuition is in place?

DON'T EXPECT YOUR COMPLIANCES TO BE UPDATED UNTIL VERY CLOSE TO THE START OF CLASS (mid/late Sept).

You will register for ONLY NURS 301, NURS 304, NURS 309:

NURS 301 - 18194 ... (this is the lecture)

and EITHER

18195 OR 18195... (this is the LAB (cadaver))

NURS 304 - 18198 ... (this is pathophysiology)

NURS 309 - 18200 … (this is pharmacology)

-------------------------

For the duration of the BSN program, you will be registered for you clinical courses by the SoN.

NCLIN 302 - (this is physical assessment, you learn how to assess your patient) JUST WAIT (they will register you for this, you won’t need to do anything)

NCLIN 306 - (this is your lab and hospital-based Med-Surg clinical)JUST WAIT (they will register you for this, you won’t need to do anything)
