Hey there future Nursing students!

I know some of y'all are wondering if it is possible to work and do well in nursing school. Personally, I am able to manage working part time and do well academically. That being said I have a very flexible job that I can show up when I want and study while working. I do know some people that have stricter jobs and they are able to manage their time efficiently. I just would rather tone down my hours so that I ensure I learn the material. They pay well too. It really just depends your work ethic. If you have to work I would recommend applying for work study. A couple of tips I would have for first semester is start saving money now. There are SO many expenses that no one tells you about until the first week of classes. Also do not stress about how long it takes to get your letter of acceptance. They were super late getting ours out. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions!

@kciena24 I am soo sooooo eager to hear back... interview process was ok, I feel like I did fine but wasn't a big fan of it not being live. Kinda awkward seeing yourself on the screen and being nervous at the same time lol.

@n0ell3 yes! It took a lot longer than I expected to get used to seeing myself on video lol. I definitely went through the practice questions like 20 times to make sure I had the question/preparation/answer process down because it was throwing me off a little bit at first. Overall, I was pretty nervous but I think I did ok!

@kciena24 Hoping they get back to us by the 15th though, cause I'm sure some of us have seats held in other programs just in case we don't get into UTHSCSA... I'm supposed to pay for summer classes for another program starting April 22nd... soooo I cry lol
