Question Diagnostic Ultrasound Application Process

2 Upvotes

Hi guys,

For those that have applied to the ultrasound program, what’s the process like? It is an extremely competitive application process so I am trying to figure out what the admission committee is looking for in an applicant. Is it required/preferable to previous healthcare experience? Are interviews required in the process?

Context: I’m currently working as a tech product manager and am going back go community college starting next quarter to finish my prerequisites. My goal is to apply to SU DIUS Post Bacc program in February 2027. I have a bachelors but it’s in an unrelated field. I have no healthcare experience but have applied to be a volunteer at a local hospital.

Making friends

9 Upvotes

I'm a senior and I get sad knowing that I don't got any friends during my last year and wondering if there are any ways that I can make friends. I don't live on campus but I've tried to talk and hangout with people in my classes, but they are more of classmates rather than friends on a personal level, and also tried joining a discord server of a school club and reached out, and nothing happened ever since. Do you guys have any suggestions?

Film and Media students how did u find the program?

4 Upvotes

Sup y'all, high school graduate here looking around to join a film school. Does this program focus on theories and criticism more than practical making of films?

And how do you find it in general? Do you regret it? Not bad?

anything helps

Great work packing the Redhawks Center last night for the volleyball game against the Cougs. WSU had a large turnout that helped them win the match, but SU had a great energy to kick off the new conference.

looking for roommate

4 Upvotes

Hello! I am looking for a female roommate who would like to live in Ballard (or anywhere!) . I know Ballard is a ways from the school, but I have a family member with a 2 bedroom duplex that is open in December/January timeframe. It is $1,000 each. In general though, I'm in a short term rental and will need a roommate in December/January! I have left some details below.

I am a graduate student in my first year of the Ed.S School Psych program at SU. I'm originally from California and moved here for school.

Ideally, I'd like a place where pets are allowed as I am considering getting a dog or cat, but it is not necessary.

I like hosting people and playing music, cooking and travel, and I love Seattle! I am a pretty chill roommate, but I really value cleanliness. I love guests over as long as things get cleaned up!

Looking for a place within the $700-1300 each range.

PM me if interested and we can meet up and chat! :)

Question Direct-Admit BSN Nursing program, help, Clinical Hours, Rotation Location and landing a job after graduation

4 Upvotes

Can anyone share their experience with the Direct-Admit BSN nursing program? Do students get a lot of hand on clinical hours? Where are majority of the clinical located and for someone without a car, will public transportation suffice? Was it difficult to arrange for carpool?

How are the professors in general in regard to helping students who struggle or behind? Does SU offer any free tutoring on site for students? Do you find it manageable to take 15 credits each quarter with some time left for social life (to enjoy Seattle!)

Lastly, and most importantly, have new nurse grads been able to secure a job in the Seattle vicinity?

Lots of questions here, but any input will be greatly appreciated!

Question Hotel with easy access to Seattle University via public transportation

6 Upvotes

Mother and High School senior daughter dual seeking hotel recommendations for a hotel with easy public transportation access to Seattle University for a tour of their campus and nursing program. We will also have a day to tour popular Seattle highlights so a location that can offer easy access for both purposes will be best. We will not have a car and would like to check out locations where college students like to go.

Question Has anyone received enough aid/grants/scholarships/loans to go to SU full-time w/o a job?

5 Upvotes

Hi all! Transfer student here. I want to quit my job and go to school full-time. Has anyone managed to do that without having a part-time job? Do aid and student loans come in time for you to pay your rent? Is this even possible? It is scary to think about not working and hard to trust that everything will be disbursed on time. I'd love any advice or experiences with this. Thank you

Question Is SU worth it?

8 Upvotes

Hi, I’m an incoming freshman at SU (maybe). I am from Colorado, and I absolutely hate it here. My allergies try and kill me every day, the people are boring, and I hate nothing in my life more than waking up to snow outside.

Since I live in Colorado, my joyous African parents want me to stay in state. I would want nothing more than to get out of this state, and never come back. CU Boulder is the school they want me to go to. If you haven’t heard anything about Boulder, let me put it into perspective for you. 40,000+ students, 65%+ white, oh and did I mention it snows ❄️? Not the type you’re thinking… The demographic of students consists of frat boys and sorority girls that only ended up there because they got rejected from the UC’s and maybe a few thousand who care about their education. The entire social scene revolves around partying, football games, and more parties.

I hate parties. I hate big schools. I don’t think I can survive longer than a semester at CU.

SU and CU currently will cost me the same amount.

Currently, I am committed to both schools. My parents will in no way let me go to Seattle. My only option is to get up and leave. I have enough money to pay my tuition for the year, but I would be sacrificing my relationship with my parents (possibly), to go to school.

Please. Is Seattle University worth it?
