Scared?  What is there to be scared of?  

Gather round, the GrumpyOldBastard has a story to tell:

LONG AGO and far way, in a time before cell phones or standard precautions, I applied to my "ideal" BSN nursing school.  The program was closing their BSN program to focus on graduate nursing education.  I applied for admission to the LAST class to be admitted to this program.  I didn't have all of my pre-req courses completed, and as a result I was not admitted.  There was NO second chance, as the school was closing.  

How did that work out for me?  Was that a disaster?  Did I end up following a dreary path of professional marginalization due to this failed application? NO! NO! NO!

For the next semester I applied to FIVE schools across the state.  I got admitted by several... including my preferred school. My career worked out OK.... I got good clinical jobs, a graduate degree from a famous school you would know by its initials, I served as president of a national specialty nursing certification board, taught nursing for decades, got a second masters in a related health field, served in the Navy Reserve Nurse Corps (at home and overseas, in peace and in conflict), and retired in Spring 2021.  

There is noting to be scared about!  Good Luck!
