Brilliant video Jordyn!! Really enjoyed everything about it :) If possible in the future, could you do a video revving up your car? So we can hear how it sounds! 😂
i got some questions if you don’t mind!! I just got accepted into CWRU nursing program 2028 and i’m wondering if case provides your scrubs or if you have to buy them? Also what other materials does case western provide as a nurse! please and thank you 🙏
hi!!! congrats on your acceptance!! you have to buy scrubs from the site that they provide so they can have the FPB patch on the scrub top... scrub bottoms can be bought separately if desired just as long as they are white. at case you get lots of clinical hours in so that is a major plus! you will have to buy textbooks and online programs and they will give you instructions on what exactly to buy and when so don't worry about that for now (but in full transparency it does get pricey with all the materials we need). you don't need to be a stethoscope because there is a ceremony! other helpful materials that you can buy include a pen light, a small notebook for clinical, supportive shoes, and I also enjoy wearing white underscrubs as well... there are lots of networking events held by nearby hospitals so it is easy to connect with management if you are interested in applying for a job after your first semester of clinical!
@@jordynmacias444 Thank you so much for your response! Also wdym by i don’t need a stethoscope because there is a ceremony?? Sorry I’m just new to this and have a lot of questions. But thank you so much
@@ryanlopez725 no worries! we have stethoscopes that we use during clinical to do assessments, but you won’t need to go out and buy one since there will be a stethoscope ceremony where one will be given to you! it’s so fun
Hey!! I'm thinking about committing to Case soon for the class of 2027! What would you say grading is like for classes? Do a lot of prof grade on a curve against other students or more so a traditional way? Are they understanding about grades and does everything you take to reflect on your transcript--for example let's say you drop a class?
I am sooo sorry for such a late reply! For nursing courses a 91% is an A but for other classes an 88% can be an A. It really just depends on the prof and the class! If you drop a class before the drop/add period it wont show up on your transcript! A lot of profs are understanding abt grades and it depends on each one if they will round or curve or not.
yay! theres the dining hall for food but also other places that you can use meal swipes on campus! overall i would say the food is pretty good, ofc sometimes meals are not the very best at times but there are options to choose from. theres also $50 "case cash" that is added onto your meal plan so you can eat at other places like chipotle or get ice cream!
@@carinag4635 I personally don't have my car because I am from California, but a lot of the time I wish I did. it helps a lot if you want to get off campus really quick or need to pick someone up from the airport! that being said, i make do without a car and theres public transportation available but it'd also be nice to have one!
Hey, I recently started looking at CWRU as a school I want to apply to and I think it really appeals to me. But I would like to know, what's the curriculum like and how does it cater to pre-med students? Thank you PS: I really liked your video
hi! so sorry im just getting to this now, but case is a wonderful stem school and has plenty of opportunities to get involved very easily wether that be doing research, working or volunteering at the hospital, getting involved in clubs etc. the courses are challenging but they also prepare you!
sure! i had around a 4.5 weighted gpa. extracurriculars included: - cheer 4 years - dance 3 years - National Honor Society member - Best Buds member - IMPACT club coordinator and mentor - NAMI co founder and president - California Scholarship Federation member And I didn’t get to take the SAT because of COVID. Also, these are just my stats. Your admittance will be looked at holistically including your essay, your intended major, your stats, and how many they can accept that year, etc. You got this:)
Base on my research that cwru has their scholarships program Including the nursing also but can u pls help me on how can I apply? Because I badly want to study their 😭
I am planning to apply into cwru soon but I am currently struggling to choose my course and after watching this vid. It gives me urge to have more interest to becoming a nursing student so yah... but does cwru have a scholarship programs or something for international students? Hope u can read this and kindly rep. ♡♡♡
hi! that’s awesome to hear! case does offer scholarships for students and offers a lot of financial aid for all of their students, we have lots of international students at case as well. i know there are also clubs for international students on campus as well but not quite sure what they’re called and stuff bc i’m not one myself,, hope this helps!
i love the mole on your neck. I have a couple moles myself ;) still at Case? I might be heading there this summer to do breast cancer research at Case Comprehensive Cancer Center. Take care, Jordyn. (love the spelling of your name too!)
aw thanks so much!! i am currently home for the summer but will be back for the fall semester! but that research opportunity sounds amazing!! wishing you the best of luck! :)
I am currently deciding whether to commit to Case for nursing. What part of this program appeals to you and what do you like ( and not like) about Case? Also, how did you ultimately chose Case over other colleges you've accepted to?
early clinicals are everything here at case!! with Cleveland clinic and Uh the opportunities you have here are amazing.. and have you seen the HEC?? If you are passionate about nursing, this is the place.
hi! what made case stick out to me the most was starting clinicals freshman year. it’s really beneficial for us to start immersing ourselves in that community and being able to start interacting with patients right away! because of clinicals freshman year also, i’m able to have a job as a nursing assistant in the icu which i wouldn’t be able to do without clinicals, but if you want to wait for a job too, there’s absolutely no pressure to get one! what’s amazing also is that there are so many hospitals nearby like the cleveland clinic which is right next to the HEC which is personally my favorite building on campus. i think one thing that i don’t necessarily love about case is the location - it’s cleveland (lol no offense to the clevelanders) but i’m from southern california so it was a really big adjustment for me especially first semester and during the winter months. BUT having a good community make such the difference and really putting yourself out there to make friends is so important to get through it and know that you’re not alone. i also don’t like SAGES classes (which is being changed to a new writing program for upcoming freshman). it doesn’t really apply to you but SAGES is just different writing classes based on different topics that we are required to take (only have to take 3) but they get filled fast and it’s kinda hard to fit it into my schedule but since they’re changing it i think it will be different for you guys so that’s fun and i can’t really say anything about the new program! and regardless where you go to college, you’ll have to take classes that you don’t love bc that’s just apart of college. to your last question, what ultimately made me choose case was the experience i would be getting here, the education that i’m getting, and the opportunities i will be able to get from going to such a well known nursing school! i hope this helps :))
@@jordynmacias444 Thank you so much for your reply! Definitely the early clinical which is not always seen in other nursing schools. I have a CNA/GNA license and hopefully I can transfer and practice there as a nursing assistant. I've seen videos and photos of HEC, which is beautiful. I very much like Case, with Cleveland Clinic right around the corner as well as the other things you have pointed out. Right now I am about ~85% sure that I will probably commit to Case (very indecisive here), but it is really the location/distance from home/safety that concerns me. SAGES really does not sound like fun as writing is just not it for me lol.
so exciting! i think my biggest tip i can give is to have a really strong common app. essay! it will not only make you stand out apart from your extracurriculars and grades, but it helps give the admission team to look at you as a whole person with real life experiences and make them want you apart of their community. also get good recommendation letters if you can! another thing i can say is to tour case if you can/if you haven't already to make sure you really like it and can picture yourself here! if you're considering another school for ED as well, make a list of like different things that the schools offer to narrow down your decision of where you'd like to officially ED to, but if you don't end up doing ED there is always EA if you're really unsure! one thing for sure with ED tho is make sure you know that you 100% want to go there before you submit your app!
thank you so much !! I am doing the pre-med track as an international student so I do not think I can tour but I have been doing tours online and i really love it
so glad that you love it! there are many places apart of case also that aren’t featured in online tours so it’s super fun to find little study spots and explore, there are still a lot of places on campus i haven’t been to yet even. but it’s very beautiful especially in the fall with the changing colors! @@OMOOLUWAKIITE
hi! i highly recommend getting a thick coat that goes to your knees. I am from southern california so I understand. my winter coat is from the brand Columbia, but I don't think you can go wrong with north face either or one of those brands! I also highly recommend thermal leggings and thick socks + a good pair of snow boots like timberlands
@@jordynmacias444 my daughter got into the Nursing program. She is coming with my wife for a visit this upcoming weekend. Is it possible for them to meet with you on Sunday 4/10? Please let me know. It is such a difficult decision and meeting you will help her. Please let me know. 🙂
@@chibbu1965 I will be available in the morning/early afternoon! My instagram is @jordyn.macias if you or she wants to reach out to me on that social media and we can plan accordingly :)
Hi! I am planning to do more vlogs to help prospective students out with their questions and get a feel for the community here. Everyone is super helpful here and is more than willing to help! There are so many clubs to join if they spark an interest for you. For example I love dance so I am in a few different dance clubs (one hip hop, contemporary, etc.) but I didn't want the commitment team, so I joined those and they are the absolute best! If I can't go to a practice, it is no big deal. Other clubs on the other hand have mandatory attendance, it all just depends. If your looking to go out and party, they are not super abundant but they do happen so you just have to talk to people, but if not, there is no pressure here to do that bc cwru isn't like a huge party school too. I think the biggest thing about our community is that you gravitate towards your people by getting involved in campus life! Despite this being a smaller school, it doesn't feel that way at all because there are always students out. If you have anymore questions feel free to ask!
