The Guys Club: Guy Students Come on In! - Page 141

60 Y.O. (So you're never to old to go into nursing). Graduated last year from the accelerated BSN program at Georgetown. Going to work next month at a VA hospital.

There were 8 guys in my cohort of 57.

43 year old male starting RN program in 2 weeks. I do not know how many guys will be in my class of 16, I have orientation on 8/30/12. I guess I'll find out then. As for tats. I have a full sleeve on the left and half sleeve on the right, not a problem in class but clinicals I have been told I have to cover up. I find underarmor makes good long sleeve compression shirts that cover up and not too hot. Good luck!

Shout out to all Male nursing students! I am 43 and went back to school last year, knocked out my pre-reqs and applied to the fall 2012 program. Found out I was accepted with a 3.8 GPA and will start in 2 weeks. I am a combat veteran ( 8 1/2 years of service ). I have always enjoyed science and medicine. After my previous wife died from cancer I decided to resign from my job of 15 years and return to school and become a nurse. Last year I married an awesome woman who has supported my dream of becoming a nurse whole heartedly and by the way she is a ICU Nurse. Any way I am looking forward to the challenge and wish you all good luck and Semper Fi!

Thanks for the shout out and Good luck to you. I'm a Veteran as well and my spouse is also a Nurse (Capt) in the AF.

My incoming class has 11 out of 48 which seems to be a huge #. Big ups to all the males hangin in there though! started my RN program yesterday!

I'm a 26 yr old male student. My class is either 50 or 60 people (just had orientation). We have 7 guys.

35 year old in the bay area. We have a class of 22 students, and there are 5 dudes including myself in it. We have enough to start a fight club!

What's up fellas!! I'm a junior in a bsn program. I have four semesters to go and can't wait to be done. A lot of my friends who graduated already says the junior is the toughest in a bsn program so I'm a little worried. My class has about 103 people in it. We have maybe 40 guys. Goodluck to u all who are just beginning a Nsg program or who's taking prereqs.

That's a LOT of guys! Close to 40%, eh? We have 5 out of 40.

Hey all-34, career changer. I start in the Masters Entry to Nursing at DePaul University in January. Excited and scared all at once. Getting married next fall and got a whole lot on the plate. But seriously can't wait!
