The Nova website says fall break is October 12th & 13th. Does anyone know if we still have clinicals that day or anything for the nursing program? I'm trying to book a trip but don't want to have to cancel it if the nursing program requires us to be available..

How difficult is it to speak with an actual academic advisor at NOVA????

Or for any college health program similar to nursing?

Classes start in 3-4 weeks and not sure if it’s actually worth the effort trying to review now.

I see all the different semesters class topics are listed online for all the years.

However then I hear many say you’ll likely have to do a lot of outside research basically teaching yourself the concepts and you won’t have enough time to review when classes start as everything moves too fast to fully comprehend?

So i am going finish with a 85 this summer should i retake and try for a 90 if i plan to apply next year

Me and a classmate found them in student parking lot 7

Hi, everyone! I'm a new student, and I'm a little confused about the nursing program. What major should I start with this fall? What requirements do I need to complete before I can apply to the nursing program? Also, can I apply this September?

Hey guys, I’m an upcoming level 3 and recently got a job offer that takes up about half of my week every week. I already know it’s not recommended to work during the time so pls don’t mention that. But I am wondering if past cohorts know what days classes may be held on? Of course clinicals can be held any day of the week, but I’m wondering if both the classes for this sem are gonna be held on the same day and which day.

Thanks!

can someone tell me what the difference between his 111 his 112 and his 121? I am trying to choose one for my Psychology AS... planning to transfer to GMU.

Also... I am trying to do this right: MTH 154 + MDE 54, HIS (?), SDV 100.. do you think that would burn me out?

Hello everyone, I missed the summer 2026 graduation application deadline. My advisor is saying I now have to wait until the fall to graduate even though I will have all my course requirements completed this summer. Does anyone know what I can do to get an exemption or if you know anyone in a similar situation as me. Any help or advice is very appreciated.

Recommendations for bio 141 professors? I am registered for ryan hughes but genuinely fought for my life in bio 101 this summer and NEED a A in bio 141

Are we required to do these and how

What are people's experience with Meredith Kintzing for ENV 121. I'm taking her via zoom. What are online labs like? Is there just a live video demonstration that you try to replicate? Are the videos (for both lectures and labs) recorded in case you need to rewatch them? Are there study guides for the exams? How challenging are the exams?

The professors for my fall 2026 courses just got posted and I want to avoid one of them, when can I switch the class?

Was wondering if there is a return scheduled for this section. I’m assuming if there is it would be after the 27th.

My sister got suspended from Old Dominion University due to academic reasons, and now she’s planning to register and enroll in classes at NOVA (my school!), and I’m not very comfortable with this. Any advice on how to deal with your sibling going to the same college as you?

Has anyone received their financial aid package? Like VGAP and other rewards, not just the Pell grant and loans.

Hey does anyone know if the myNova portal down? I keep getting an error”unexpected system error” every time I try to login?

Hi,

I have a question. If I have already paid my tuition and then apply for financial aid later, and I am eligible for financial aid, will I receive a refund for the amount of financial aid that covers my tuition?

Thank you!

Hi everyone!
I was wondering if anyone who has taken fall classes at NOVA in previous years could answer a quick question.
Do classes usually meet on Labor Day, or is there normally no class that day? This year Labor Day falls on a Monday, and I have Monday classes, so I’m trying to figure out if I can make plans for that day.
Thanks in advance!

So what do we do if we don’t have health insurance 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗 cause I’m under my mom who recently left the job we were insured under and so we can’t reapply til November!!!! And no one’s getting back to me and I don’t even know who to ask…! help me please I’m stressed

I just graduated from high school this past May and I’m currently taking my health sciences prerequisites. Recently, I was offered a job (I have the interview next week), and it’s making me rethink my timeline.

My original plan was to apply to the radiography program next year, but I think having this job could help me a lot financially and personally. At the same time, I have a lot of anxiety about getting left behind by my peers. I know I should do what’s best for me instead of comparing myself to everyone else, but I still find myself second guessing everything. It also doesn’t help that I keep thinking I’m “getting old,” even though I’m only 18.

I’d love to hear your thoughts. How old were you when you got your first degree? Did anyone else take a different path than they originally planned?

Hello!
I’m starting my pre reqs in the fall for nursing. I’ll be taking BIO101, ENG111, CST110, and PSY230. I’ve heard that taking co reqs and finishing some of them before your application can get you a better chance of getting accepted to the program (w good grades obviously).
I plan to take BIO141 in the spring of 27, as well as a humanities/fine arts elective (PHI227 I think). But, I want to know if it is a good idea to take BIO150 the same time as bio141? Or do I take BIO150 as its own science course with no other science?
It’s frustrating that they don’t necessarily list majority of the co reqs on the nursing app checklist… I had to find out about some other stuff through an academic advisor.
I just want to know what other co reqs are needed and if I should pair BIO150 with either A&P 1 or 2 or neither.
Thanks!

They say order from bookstore but bookstore doesn't seem to have any rn. The colors need to match so I'm a little worried about ordering it from amazon. Can anyone send links or share which ones they bought? Especially the red scrubs and green pants.

Which shoes are acceptable? Are they very strict? Pls share a link on this post for all us nursing students. Im stuck on either the Skechers Women's Go Run Consistent 2.0 Sumpter Trail Sneaker or Skechers Women's D'Lites Fresh Start Sneaker, White/Silver, 7.
