   Hi everyone. I am currently enrolled in a master's entry nursing program in Arizona. It doesn't have a specialty and is basically a BSN with master's requirements attached. I don't graduate until August, but I am planning ahead. I am moving back to O...

   Hi everyone. I've decided to enroll in U of A for the MEPN program instead. Good luck to those on the wait list!

   When you apply for FAFSA and U of A gets back to you, you'll be awarded about 40k in federal subsidized/unsubsidized loans. Make sure you apply for FAFSA for not only 2017-2018, but 2016-2017 as well. Half of the funds from the 40k come from 2016-201...

   There's a new Facebook page for our cohort, if anyone hasn't seen it. It's "UA MEPN 2017-18 Acceptees"

   That's where I'm confused too. I found that other ID needed to create the NetID on the grad app, but creating it requires some kind of pin. Maybe they send that once the grad college has officially approved us.

   The CPR course looks like it is generally a four hour course. I'm pretty sure that the grad college just waits to accept you until the college of nursing accepts you.

    You do have to be CPR certified before starting the program. I saw it somewhere on the nursing website.

    The 40k in sub/unsub loans will be given regardless of credit. Look at the credit guidelines for what is considered "adverse" credit for the plus loans. That should help. If you don't meet those, you can get a cosigner. I realize that obtaining a cos...

    You'll get 40k in federal loans automatically. Any additional expenses, including living expenses should be covered by the graduate plus loan. It's super easy to get, provided you don't have a bankruptcy or a lot of debt in collections. I also have b...

    Someone said the tuition might be going up. Does anyone know what the out of state tuition could be going up to? I emailed a con advisor, but it was the first he had heard of it.
