I have three children. My three year old became increasingly interested in the medical field. she requested the Squishy Skeleton, and memorized all the organs and bones (thanks to a TH-cam video). When I sat back and dreamt about how she would grow up, finish high school, go to college, get accepted to a nursing school; its funny cause I pictured someone like you. When I came across your videos recently, I was amazed with how much you were the type of person I wanted my daughter to be. Keep up the good work. God bless you.
Im currently about to apply to an ADN program. Where I live, the community college has one of the most prestige ADN program and the hospitals in my area will pay ADNs to go back for their BSN. it is interesting how each state is different.
I have no desire to be a nurse, but I still watch all your nursing videos because I like to understand what my boyfriend is going through right now. So thank you for these! He's a full time LPN already, but is going back for his RN. He just applied for nursing school again and we're patiently waiting to hear from them! We're so anxious.
My mom only has her associates and ended up being the house officer, then a med surg director, then a ICU director lol and now she's in school for bachelors and masters to be the CNO...def need connections!
Jameson &MommyVids hey it's honestly been so long since nursing school for me that I can't even remember! I would just go with whatever your school recommends and maybe ask classmates a semester ahead of you. Good luck with your journey :)
Awww. I remember the video you posted regarding being waitlisted and your journey. I remember crying watching that video too! I was soooo happy for you when you shared that you got into your first choice! Feels like last week, and look at you now girl!
I'm not even interested in nursing school but love your videos and it was interesting. makes me motivated to go back to school (I have associates in business)
I live in Canada and in my nursing program the entire nursing degree is 4 years and we don't do 2 years of pre-requisites. We do the pre-requisite type classes along with our nursing classes for all 4 years. and at most of the areas around me its just grades that get you in and they're super high for some schools and not as high for others. we also don't have to write an essay or have references, or do any entrance exams. Its really interesting hearing how different your acceptance was to mine!
Brittney Johnson I'm also in Missouri! Just applied to Saint Charles community college. You only need a 2.8 GPA. They actually have a really good program!
Brittney Johnson in all honesty, it was really really long a few years ago but they switched up the criteria you have to have before you can apply do it's not very long at all anymore!!!
Christina Davis thats great!! I kno u have to take the TEAS test & im not good with testing. I applied to goldfarb school of nursing & im still waiting to hear back
Brittney Johnson whoops my phone auto corrected it's the HESI (?) I think? I have to check. Goldfarb is good! I hope you get in. What part of Missouri do you live in? I'm in the town about 30 minutes away from St. Louis called Saint Charles
I just wanted to say that I found your channel a few months ago and you have truly inspired me in more ways then one. You inspired me to start my own TH-cam channel. I'm trying to apply and choose a nursing school, and your "Applying to Nursing School" video answered so many of my questions. I love hearing about your everyday life in nursing school because it prepares me for what's (hopefully) in my future. I also loved hearing about you and your now fiance (congratulations!) and seeing your house and oh my god your budgeting videos were unbelievably helpful putting things into perspective. I'm seriously planning on saving that video and using those tips for when I move out with my boyfriend in the upcoming two years. I just wanted you to know what kind of impact you were making. Thank you for posting the most helpful and interesting videos; it's so great seeing my future before it happens. :)
Hey love. I’m a nursing student and an aspiring TH-camr. I make nursing, beauty, and lifestyle videos. Check out my channel? Also, I've just posted a new nursing school video (:
Love watching your videos involving anything nursing I'm starting my health degree in January then nursing school and I can not wait. Please keep doing more nursing videos of any kind I love them.
YES! I think that it is SO important for people who want to go to nursing school, they need to try to get their CNA or any basic level at a clinic, nursing school, or clinic. I have been working at the same doctor's office for a little over two years now, and I am honestly so thankful for all the experience it has given me. ABOUT GPA, there is a gentleman that I know that had a 4.0 overall GPA and did not make it past the interview, do not only rely on your GPA to make it into the program. For TTU the minimum acceptance is 3.0, but it was uncommon for anyone to be accepted below a 3.4 and the TEAS exam needed to be at a minimum as well (I forgot the ranking names, it is not the highest one but at least the second highest level) with taking the exam a maximum of two times. My program starts mid-January and I am so nervous, but I am ready to start when it gets here. Huge congratulations to your success, and congratulations to other on this journey as well. :D
Lynnzy Blanton I just got mine over the summer and am so grateful! By having before nursing school we get to do summer externships! I just made my channel if you'd like to follow along:)
Lynnzy Blanton I’ve been an STNA in a local LTC/skilled nursing facility for almost 2yrs, & just recently decided to go back to school for my LPN. The college I applied to requires you to have your STNA Certification & I think it’s a great idea for nursing programs to have that requirement!
I have watched like three or four of your nursing videos and I can't tell you HOW similar we are!!! Haha I'm watching these videos and everything that you say I relate to SO much like you being scared waiting for the other schools to accept you. I felt the same way, I was so nervous when my second choice school's deadline passed before I heard from my first choice school. I'm so happy to see you graduate soon and I can tell you that I will be watching your nursing school videos ALL throughout my nursing program. Thank you so much for your videos, they help so much. Congratulations on your BSN!!!
the application process for nursing school was sooooo stressful. there are so many requirements that you need to exceed, but its totally worth it once you get accepted to the school you want to go to. im currently in an accelerated program and i love it!
I luv your videos!! Your are so beautiful too!! Your videos are so good and so well done. I can't believe how much u have gone through to get to this point.
I have one more semester before I start applying for nursing school. I'm applying to an Associate's Program first because I'm guaranteed to get in due to privileges of the Future Nurse's program I'm in but I'm going to add on my Bachelor's afterwards. In the state of California nurse's are required to have Bachelor's degrees starting 2020 so EVERYONE has to get a BSN anyway. At least in this state! And my nursing school requires that you meet a certain cutoff score in a multi-criteria screening process that takes into account your grades and experience. And they only require a TEAS of 62% but 90% means you automatically reach the cutoff score!
Interesting how the American system works! I'm applying for nursing in Canada and majority of schools are 4 year programs (not including pre-reqs). I'm finishing my bachelors degree in accounting in the spring and will still have to do 4 years in the actual nursing program even if you've finished a degree. So yay for 8 years of school 😳
you're such a smart woman! go you, how inspiring! you are amazing how you plan things financially and balancing school. love your vids and please keep up the great work. I look up to you! 😍
my counselor also told me the hospitals are also only hiring mostly bsn nurses because the level of mistakes made by adns vs bsn nurses is pretty high so the insurance company's require the hospitals to pay higher premiums to cover the hospital...i think this is the main reason why... I live in AZ and theres only one hospital branch here who still hires adn grads.. so its really hard to find a job.. our bsn program takes 2 1/2 years but we have to have an AA before we apply w all sciences and human patho ect.. I love ur veds:)
AAAwwww... i actually just left AZ , i was living in Chandler, to come back home to PA ... but i will get my adns and im COMING BACK OVER, Can't wait to leave this coast ... burrrr
I live in az too, you have to look hard but theres still plenty of hospitals who will hire you with an associates, and are willing to help you pay for your bachelors :)
Holly Montgomery idk why everyone gets all defensive over this.. I dont want just the adn I want to help a specific group of ppl that requires I have it my bsn.. and im going to do the DNP program aswell.. I work in a nursing home now and I love my job.. everyone has thier own story its our own choice.. whocares I just wrote that because alot of ppl do not know that..
It is so odd how things are so different in other states! All BSN degree courses in the state of Georgia (that I've found) are 3 years, excluding core classes. An ASN course in Georgia is 2 years, excluding core. It is smarter to do an ASN course, then do an RN-BSN track here.
Oh wow, the american system sounds so much harder to get into then in Australia. In Australia, to be an RN you need your Bachelor and its a 3 year course that is really quite easy to get into (IMO it should be harder.. I think we are devauling our nurses) and you can get straight into it from high school, with no extra exams or prereqs!
How is nursing school only 2 years? Only in the States, that's fuck Up! And the 15 months one is insulting, you have someone's life on your hands, It should be minimum 4 years just nursing school, like most countries.
At my school, prerequisite courses are in the first year, and the next three years are nursing. I'm a transfer student and I wanted to do the accelerated program since I am a transfer student, but it's WAY too much for me. The classes are pushed together to force you to finish fast and I can't even...
Love your videos been watching you for a while found you when I was looking at hair dos saw when you had your short hair loved it saw you where in nursing school when I was thinking about going back in Jan 2016 took my TEAS test in May you where most of my reason I did it I'm now 50 and just started nursing school in Aug 2016 Love your videos and you are so sweet with a great personality!!!😀❤️
I'm so happy I found your channel, such great information! I applied to a community Nursing program in January 2016, and did not get accepted. This January I reapplied to the same school, and 2 others. I have a feeling that I may not get accepted to any. The one school I applied to needs me to retake TEAS for $115 by the 27th. But that's a lot of money to spend to not even know if i will get in. If I do not get in then I was looking into becoming an LPN but really want to work in pediatrics, or a doctors office or a hospital. Is that posible as a LPN?
Hi, I am junior in highschool right now and I'm considering becoming a RN. I'm currently taking medical termanology duel credit class. I live in East Texas and I just don't know what are the best colleges or universities that have the best nursing programs and I was wondering if you could help me out. I'm also debating wether I should do my basics ina community college in the city that I live in or go straight in into a college or university. Since I'm already going to have a credits for the community college I don't want to throw it away by going to another college that won't accept it. My current gpa is 3.97 and 3.91 and I'm in top ten percent of graduating class.
adamaris13 Check out schools in your state. I went out of state for my nursing education and it got really expensive. If I could do it over, I would stick to a school in my state! Just an idea! Good luck to you girlie!
adamaris13 hey if you are around tyler texas then UT tyler or Stephen f Austin are good schools nearby. Also 2 hours away in fort worth u can go to UTA, TCU, Texas womens University. I would recommend going to the university because schools (like UTA and Texas womens) give their students an extra .5 just for going to their school 😊
Hi kathryn! You're videos always give me insight into nursing, and I cannot wait till college (I'm a sophomore in high school) one question I had was what you meant by Medical-style high school! I go to a public urban high school, I'm in the top 1% of my class. I was wondering if you would recommend me taking the most science-based classes possible?? I already took bio, health, and I'm in chemistry. What classes are absolutely necessary ?
Hey! So I am currently finishing up my senior in high-school and I want to be a nurse, but what exactly is the process? I plan on going to a community college then transferring so about how many years does it take? and what classes do I start with?
As a senior in high schools what can I do to prepare myself for nursing school? Obviously create good study habits but should I read medical related things? Or something else?
Hi Kathyn, you are amazing! I'm in TX too just like you! Your information and updates are truly very informative. I take a lot of notes when I watch your video's. I have a question for you. On one of your "Tips" videos you stated " Apply to more schools and more programs". I'm done with my pre-reqs for the RN program, so do you mean to apply to other programs like Radiology or Physical Therapy at the same time apply to the RN program?
What if a school doesn't have a pre-nursing degree? I want to get a Bachelors in Nursing, but before we can even apply we have to complete prerequisites.
I am currently a third year, and I will be graduating in spring of 2018 with a bachelors in health science-interdisciplinary degree :) love hearing about your journey! Do you have any videos on how you afford everything without a job during school? I live in my own apartment with my fiancé and he has a job and makes a decent income. I do have a job right now but I'm taking quite a lot of credits next semester and plan on doing spring semester as well while planning all of the last minute stuff for my wedding and would like to maybe be job free next year during school. Any advice? Love you and your videos!
The only difference between adn & bsn is the leadership portion. Also the only reason they are only hiring bsns is because hospitals are trying to achieve magnet status. I'm in an adn program and by the time I graduate (may 2018) there is probably no way I get a hospital job unless I network and start my bsn right away.
In your opinion, does having a previous bachelors degree and a BSN give you more opportunities (in regards to nursing) as opposed to just the BSN? I am currently in a situation where I can do both or just the BSN, I really want to just go ahead and do the BSN and not complete a separate degree first, but some people infields outside of nursing are encouraging me to do both because in their fields 2 degrees in way better than 1. In your opinion is that the case for nursing as well?
You can definitely get into nursing school with a 3.0 GPA, I know plenty people that had a 2.8 & 2.9 that got into very reputable MSN programs in the Chicago area. You just have to study hard and bomb your entry exam, essay & interview! BE ENCOURAGED!!!
Hi! I'm a nursing student an irregular student because I failed my biochemistry class and now I'm 1 year late. I'm struggling big time and so confused if this is my calling or to shift to other course? Please help :((
I really want to be a psychiatric nurse so I was just going to major in nursing to be a RN but you have to go to nursing school after? Can someone help?
Hi Kathryn! I really enjoy watching your videos because you're 5 years younger than me and you have more knowledge and experience, so of course i learn a lot from your videos :) lol. With me, I have an idea of what I want to study in college but I still doubt a lot if it's the right career for me. I'm considering just doing a technical or associate program because I'm not exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer. I'm thinking about working part time while studying but I believe financial aid won't pay too much for classes and school materials if I work. Any thoughts? @kathrynann
Hi I just applied at a community college for my nusing associate degree but my goal is bachelors . I plan to get my associate for two year and then transfer to a university for my bachelors ... am I able to do that . I hear it's easier !?
Hi I love your videos I am going to school for neonatal level 1 nursing but I'm terrible with tests everything I read goes right over my head but yet I get good grades do you have any tips and tricks for me.
hi everybody i'm in high school and i don't know a lot about colleges but i live in maryland and really privileged to live so close to john's hopkins...but i'm not sure if i want to go there to be a nurse..it's so much money and i don't know if i will be offered financial aid i'm not top of my class but i have been working so hard to keep my GPA up so if i did want to apply i might get some scholorships it's so confusing trying to figure out what to do ahhhh
I'm applying to nursing school this month and i know you mentioned that you didn't have a 4.0 but I'm dying of anxiety and was wondering what exactly your GPA was???
Hey love. I’m a nursing student and an aspiring TH-camr. I make nursing, beauty, and lifestyle videos. Check out my channel? Also, I've just posted a new nursing school video (:
When you're not even in nursing school but you still watch because well why not 💕
Also, these videos inspire me so much. I'm a business student but hearing anybody just talk about their accomplishments with school makes me ecstatic.
I feel the same way and I'm a psych major!
AlishaMarie05 I'm a psych major as well!
these videos are so inspiring....I have my bachelor's degree as well but I want to go back to school for LPN
AlishaMarie05 I'm a psych major too but I'm thinking about switching because you can't do much with it alone
She looks like a Carrie Underwood and Emily Osment mix
Katie Marie she even sounds like her
And she also kinda looks like Cinderella/ashley from once upon a time
I have three children. My three year old became increasingly interested in the medical field. she requested the Squishy Skeleton, and memorized all the organs and bones (thanks to a TH-cam video). When I sat back and dreamt about how she would grow up, finish high school, go to college, get accepted to a nursing school; its funny cause I pictured someone like you. When I came across your videos recently, I was amazed with how much you were the type of person I wanted my daughter to be. Keep up the good work. God bless you.

When you get accepted to nursing school, but still watch.
Donna Hernandez Lol true.
right? I just got accepted but I still love to watch these videos
I have no desire to be a nurse, but I still watch all your nursing videos because I like to understand what my boyfriend is going through right now. So thank you for these! He's a full time LPN already, but is going back for his RN. He just applied for nursing school again and we're patiently waiting to hear from them! We're so anxious.
I start nursing school Monday and I'm excited, yet nervous 😫.

I'm going to be applying to an accelerated nursing program and this video was beyond helpful! Thank you so much!
Morgan Binder Good luck! I did an accelerated bsn program and now finishing my msn! :)
Hey love. I’m a nursing student and an aspiring TH-camr. I make nursing, beauty, and lifestyle videos. Check out my channel?
You should make a video on clinical hairstyles! I'm in my first semester of nursing school and I'm always wearing a bun and wanted to switch it up! 😌
My mom only has her associates and ended up being the house officer, then a med surg director, then a ICU director lol and now she's in school for bachelors and masters to be the CNO...def need connections!
I have a bachelors degree in Nursing and Midwifery ;) Now I also teach nursing students! (Not in the US but Europe)
Love watching your videos even though I've been an RN for awhile. I wish someone made videos like yours back when I was in nursing school!
Sandy L y
yes I was thinking the same thing
Sandy L any must haves for nursing school?
Jameson &MommyVids hey it's honestly been so long since nursing school for me that I can't even remember! I would just go with whatever your school recommends and maybe ask classmates a semester ahead of you. Good luck with your journey :)

Thank God, i live in Missouri & for one nursing school that i know of we only need a 3.0 overall !
Brittney Johnson I'm also in Missouri! Just applied to Saint Charles community college. You only need a 2.8 GPA. They actually have a really good program!
Christina Davis how long is the waitlist??
Brittney Johnson in all honesty, it was really really long a few years ago but they switched up the criteria you have to have before you can apply do it's not very long at all anymore!!!

I am so excited to go to school to major in Nursing in the fall of 2017!
I luv your videos!! Your are so beautiful too!! Your videos are so good and so well done. I can't believe how much u have gone through to get to this point.
You're such a determined, hard worker! You should feel very proud of your accomplishments! 😊😊😊

Bonita Pandora Yea, you're just like me! I applied a month ago. Just made a channel if you wouldn't mind following my journey.

Thank you so much for these videos!!! It means more than you'll ever know!! Great soul and personality

THANK YOU ,
Youre welcome, oh and tons of nursing homes hire too! So if you stay with just an associates its not the end of the world you will find something !

Ur really pretty 😱😍
If I'm not mistaken, some universities like UNCW has 1 yr of prerequisites and 3 years of nursing 😊 which is where I plan to attend next fall.
England is so different it’s only 3 years at university for a bachelors degree in adult nursing or child nursing it’s so different from America
starting a new channel on nursing, thanks for the inspiration
Love your videos been watching you for a while found you when I was looking at hair dos saw when you had your short hair loved it saw you where in nursing school when I was thinking about going back in Jan 2016 took my TEAS test in May you where most of my reason I did it I'm now 50 and just started nursing school in Aug 2016 Love your videos and you are so sweet with a great personality!!!😀❤️
Did you have any C's in your grades? Or just A's & B's?

Sarah Ranone yes it is
love your videos and currently in college...headed that way
I love this viedo!!! Apply for Nursing...... Lift me up. thank you. God bless your path of Nursing.....Good Luck!!!!!!
Hi, I am junior in highschool right now and I'm considering becoming a RN. I'm currently taking medical termanology duel credit class. I live in East Texas and I just don't know what are the best colleges or universities that have the best nursing programs and I was wondering if you could help me out. I'm also debating wether I should do my basics ina community college in the city that I live in or go straight in into a college or university. Since I'm already going to have a credits for the community college I don't want to throw it away by going to another college that won't accept it. My current gpa is 3.97 and 3.91 and I'm in top ten percent of graduating class.
check out the university of Kentucky! It has a great nursing program!
adamaris13 Check out schools in your state. I went out of state for my nursing education and it got really expensive. If I could do it over, I would stick to a school in my state! Just an idea! Good luck to you girlie!
adamaris13 hey if you are around tyler texas then UT tyler or Stephen f Austin are good schools nearby. Also 2 hours away in fort worth u can go to UTA, TCU, Texas womens University. I would recommend going to the university because schools (like UTA and Texas womens) give their students an extra .5 just for going to their school 😊
I love you and you're perfect and all your videos are perfect ❤️❤️❤️
Hi kathryn! You're videos always give me insight into nursing, and I cannot wait till college (I'm a sophomore in high school) one question I had was what you meant by Medical-style high school! I go to a public urban high school, I'm in the top 1% of my class. I was wondering if you would recommend me taking the most science-based classes possible?? I already took bio, health, and I'm in chemistry. What classes are absolutely necessary ?
Hey! So I am currently finishing up my senior in high-school and I want to be a nurse, but what exactly is the process? I plan on going to a community college then transferring so about how many years does it take? and what classes do I start with?
Yes you are a sucessful youtuber you still have income lucky you girl keep going !
love your videos kathryn (:
As a senior in high schools what can I do to prepare myself for nursing school? Obviously create good study habits but should I read medical related things? Or something else?
please do a meet and greet ur such an inspirational person
Hi Kathyn, you are amazing! I'm in TX too just like you! Your information and updates are truly very informative. I take a lot of notes when I watch your video's.
I have a question for you. On one of your "Tips" videos you stated " Apply to more schools and more programs". I'm done with my pre-reqs for the RN program, so do you mean to apply to other programs like Radiology or Physical Therapy at the same time apply to the RN program?
What if a school doesn't have a pre-nursing degree? I want to get a Bachelors in Nursing, but before we can even apply we have to complete prerequisites.
I am currently a third year, and I will be graduating in spring of 2018 with a bachelors in health science-interdisciplinary degree :) love hearing about your journey! Do you have any videos on how you afford everything without a job during school? I live in my own apartment with my fiancé and he has a job and makes a decent income. I do have a job right now but I'm taking quite a lot of credits next semester and plan on doing spring semester as well while planning all of the last minute stuff for my wedding and would like to maybe be job free next year during school. Any advice? Love you and your videos!
Can you please do a video about working and income and time management during nursing school?
Here in Holland any type of nursing school is 4 years! then uni Is also 4 years😭
I love your videos! :)
The only difference between adn & bsn is the leadership portion. Also the only reason they are only hiring bsns is because hospitals are trying to achieve magnet status. I'm in an adn program and by the time I graduate (may 2018) there is probably no way I get a hospital job unless I network and start my bsn right away.
Will you ever want to do the RN to BSN route?
Yes I preety much have no choice. My school has a partner program that I can start if I choice to.
In your opinion, does having a previous bachelors degree and a BSN give you more opportunities (in regards to nursing) as opposed to just the BSN? I am currently in a situation where I can do both or just the BSN, I really want to just go ahead and do the BSN and not complete a separate degree first, but some people infields outside of nursing are encouraging me to do both because in their fields 2 degrees in way better than 1. In your opinion is that the case for nursing as well?
This has nothing to do with the video but I love your hair 😍👌🏼
You can definitely get into nursing school with a 3.0 GPA, I know plenty people that had a 2.8 & 2.9 that got into very reputable MSN programs in the Chicago area. You just have to study hard and bomb your entry exam, essay & interview! BE ENCOURAGED!!!
Hi! I'm a nursing student an irregular student because I failed my biochemistry class and now I'm 1 year late. I'm struggling big time and so confused if this is my calling or to shift to other course? Please help :((
Awesome Tips !!
love this girl
Nice endeavor
THANK YOU
Do you attend nursing school right after high school? I am a sophmore in high school.
Kaylee Alsip You have to take 2 years of gen eds or prerequisites first. Then you take the Teas test or hesi test and applying for nursing school.
Do you get pagers when you're on call later on?

Hi Kathryn! I really enjoy watching your videos because you're 5 years younger than me and you have more knowledge and experience, so of course i learn a lot from your videos :) lol.
With me, I have an idea of what I want to study in college but I still doubt a lot if it's the right career for me. I'm considering just doing a technical or associate program because I'm not exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer. I'm thinking about working part time while studying but I believe financial aid won't pay too much for classes and school materials if I work. Any thoughts? @kathrynann
im just here trying to survive nursing school lol
can we see make up tutorials again and hair tutorials? I subbed for those videos :(
how do you do it :(
I MISSED YOU!

I'm applying to nursing school this month and i know you mentioned that you didn't have a 4.0 but I'm dying of anxiety and was wondering what exactly your GPA was???
Hey love. I’m a nursing student and an aspiring TH-camr. I make nursing, beauty, and lifestyle videos. Check out my channel? Also, I've just posted a new nursing school video (:
It depends on the people that apply but I got in with a 3.6
I applied to a BSN program in Texas and got in with a 3.34 gpa.
Lol I had 3.0 but scored a 98 on entrance exam so I got in. But that was almost 20 years ago during the nursing shortage. I'm old...
