Nursing Application Process

In 2008 the National League of Nursing (NLN) conducted a survey of students enrolled in nursing schools across the United States. Fifty three percent of students were enrolled in ADN programs, forty three percent were in BSN, while the remaining four percent were in a Diploma of Nursing program (National League of Nursing Data Review 2010). The rate of completion of the ADN nurse has exceeded that of the BSN, creating a deficit in higher educated

This process paper will evaluate the complex relationship between disease pathophysiology and how it has progressed to the patient’s current state of health. It will include a comprehensive discussion of chronic and acute problems leading to the patient’s hospital admission, a complete description of interrelationships and pathophysiology for all medical diagnoses, a comprehensive discussion of the client’s signs and symptoms and results of all diagnostic studies to the underlying pathophysiology, and a comprehensive listing of all medications ordered at the time of admission with explanations of why each was ordered and identification of the most common side effects which may

Many nursing students prefer completing their B.S.N-RN programs and enrolling for FNP programs immediately. Some prefer becoming responsible for a home, job, or even a family after finishing their education. On the other hand, others prefer to start their nursing specialty career as soon as they can, rather than beginning with being employed as a general RN for some time. One benefit of nursing students who enter FNP programs sooner is that nursing students who graduate sooner have already acquired the habit of creating time for studying, taking exams and attending classes. Once a nursing student stays out of class for some time, it can be difficult for the student to develop such

“Why her?”, “What makes her special?” I imagine these are some of the questions you are trying to answer as you consider my application. I could say that I am a hard worker, but who wouldn't say that about themselves? I could tell you that I am just totally awesome, but that would be subjective. I don’t know what you imagine as the perfect candidate and I don’t know if I’m that. But I ask you to please have an open mind as I tell you about myself. I’m not perfect, but I know that I would be a strong asset if granted the opportunity to enroll into the Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA) program that our McKinney Independent School District (MISD) is offering to

As Nelson Mandela states (2012), “Education is the most powerful weapon we can use to change the world”. A college education, for me, would be another way I can change the world. As an RN, continuing education can help me help others. I have a lot of goals in life and I must prioritize them constantly; getting a college education is one goal that is on the forefront of my mind. A college education is important to me to achieve my other goals, make my loved ones proud, and become a better person and nurse.

Students go to college in search of knowledge, a new lifestyle, and the hope of a job after graduation. For many young adults, college is a rite of passage into an independent, mature new lifestyle. Not only is higher education a rite of passage, for some, it is also an opportunity to have a better life. Overall, college is a wonderful part of many people’s lives, yet the way the college education system is conducted wastes students time and money. College is basically composed of two parts: general education classes and major specific classes. General education courses are the source of wasted time and money, and should not be required of students. A few of the problems associated with general education classes are that they are

Nursing professionals assist their patients with the use of clinical judgement and medical care to guarantee patients will either retain or improve their health so they can attain the best quality of life possible. I have made the decision to devote myself to this occupation because of the optimal role that nurses play in improving the health and lives of others. This profession is rewarding and appealing because it provides many responsibilities, challenges, financial security, and job security. Currently I am working toward receiving a Bachelors of Science in Nursing to become a Registered Nurse. One of the steps that I have to complete in order to receive this degree include applying for the full Nursing Program following the fall semester. To guarantee my acceptance, I have accumulated a 4.0 GPA throughout my freshman year and I have also worked very hard to excel within sciences courses such as Anatomy and Physiology. I will continue to work diligently in the future to guarantee acceptance into the program and also success while I am in the program. Not until I

This issue is important to me, especially right now because I feel that I did not choose the right school for me. This school does not provide me with goal competence. Meaning this school is not going to provide me with everything I want out of life. My dreams of being a nurse are not going to be accomplished at this college. So I had to make an extremely difficult

I just wanted to thank you again for inviting me to meet today to discuss CNS recruitment and my role. You asked if there was anything else I wanted to share and I do so thank you in advance for reading my email.

The University of Rochester, School of Nursing was founded in 1928, concurrently with the Strong Memorial Hospital and the School of Medicine and Dentistry. The School of Nursing became an independent school in 1968, partnering nursing with medicine and becoming an organizational model that would influence nursing at a national level. In 1998, declining baccalaureate enrollment and the financial crisis that this caused created new challenges for the School. Competition among area schools fueled changes. The School of Nursing could no longer compete with tuition rates for baccalaureate programs at other schools. Prospective students were choosing schools with lower cost of tuition for nursing programs. The School of Nursing had to quickly figure out how to make their programs marketable. The decision was made to phase out the generic baccalaureate program and restructure the program so that it was geared toward registered nurses. What was born from this restructure was the accelerated program for non-nurses and the registered nurse to baccalaureate program (RN to BS). During the 1999 strategic planning process, emphasis was focused on creating nationally recognized areas for research as identified by the Medical Center (Strong Memorial Hospital). To help with this goal, faculty was recruited specifically to enhance the School of Nursing’s research and scholarship programs. The School of Nursing’s emphasis changed from the student

Nursing programs are striving to meet the increased need for registered nurses across the country, but high attrition rates continue to plague these attempts. Any student can struggle with completing a nursing course, but studies show that English-as-a-Second-Language nursing students attrition rates are as high as 85% and success on passing the NCLEX-RN Exam on the first attempt is much lower also ( Olson, 2012, p. 26).

As an undeclared major trying to get into the Pre-Nursing program here at Cal State Long Beach, I experience pressure everyday that I go to class. The college has immense expectations for me to receive all A’s in my classes just so that I may be accepted into a Pre-Nursing program. If I do not receive more than a 3.5 GPA in my General Education classes, then I will not be able to become a nursing major and complete my goals of becoming a trauma nurse.

My major for college will be in nursing, the degree that is in nursing is a Bachelor of Science (B.S). Just some of the classes I will have to take are Introductory Chemistry and Lab, General Biology, and Logic and Critical Thinking. To be able to continue in the nursing program I must show evidence that I have worked to the standards of UCO’s Handbook and the Department of Nursing Student Handbook. If I pass the requirements I get to go on to the professional courses. In the professional courses I must be able to withhold a “C” in the class. I will be staying at UCO to get my Master of Science degree (M.S). This degree helps the students get to be able to be part of managers or leaders and the students that want to go out a specialize in something

It’s easier to go and apply for classes early because most colleges or specific colleges do not accept everyone that wants to get into a nursing program because that nursing program only allows a certain amount of students a semester. I can be able to adapt to this situation because I am not passing at least two of my classes and that makes it hard for me to do school activities or out of school activities like 4-H because you have to be able to pass your classes to be eligible If high schools do not have nursing programs how are we supposed to be able to save people and change the world? We could be able to help them after we graduate so we should be able to have fundraisers each month and save up money starting our Freshman and Sophomore years then once the students are Juniors and Seniors we can use that money to help us with nursing programs out of school or in school.
