Pre-Nursing students prepare to join nursing program

It has not been long since school started. Four weeks in and the second year pre-nursing majors are already on a time crunch. The nursing program held a meeting with pre-nursing students to help them apply to the program for the coming spring semester. Discussion topics included things such as the NursingCAS application, a stress level check-in and prerequisite and required classes. Out of all topics that were discussed, the most important one was the NursingCAS application with an upcoming deadline.

NursingCAS is a centralized service that provides students with the opportunity to find and apply to the nursing program at any participating. It is expected that pre-nursing students complete and submit an online application through the NursingCAS website. 

The service offers programs at schools that are involved with the organization to people who are entering the world of nursing for the first time. It is also essential for those who are planning on getting a master’s or doctorate in this field. 

NursingCAS.org suggests that students apply early, send in their transcripts as soon as possible, let their references know ahead of time and check their emails regularly. Once students have applied, they can check their application status on the NursingCAS website.
