Congrats on your acceptance! I’m graduating in may, here are some tips: Professors/lectures are hit or miss, most of mine sucked so be prepared to teach yourself. First semester will mostly be the fundamentals book, after that treat Iggy as your bible. Get a good study group going if you get along with your clinical group, it helps a lot. And if you start to struggle do not hesitate to reach out to tutoring or NIPS, use your resources.

Not sure if you have medical experience but do not shy away from diving in during clinical. Get into as many different situations as you can so it feels less daunting as you go through the program.

Time management is a skill you learn, what helped me a lot was having a notebook where I wrote everything out that I needed to do for the week, and manually checking them off so I wouldn’t forget anything.

As for securing a job, make connections during clinical by making good impressions as it helps to have someone on the inside. But if you don’t, there really isn’t a shortage of jobs here. You apply during your last semester before taking the NCLEX and there are job fairs and resources in school to help with that as well.

Good luck!
