   Byrnsgrl replied to Byrnsgrl's topic in Post Graduate

   I work 40-50 hours a week and have small children. It's all about time management and prioritization :)

4. DNP Clinical Hours

   Byrnsgrl replied to Le-Lee_FNP's topic in Post Graduate

   The University of San Francisco encourages it but recognizes that not every environment is appropriate so they also assist finding placements outside of ones employment

5. USF (CA) BSN-DNP Fall 2011

   Byrnsgrl replied to Byrnsgrl's topic in Post Graduate

   GPA was 3.9 but to be honest, they are looking for more than just GPA. Just as you are looking for something to get out of the program, they look for how students will contribute/better the program--if this makes sense. Currently the BSN-DNP program ...

   I'm just about to finish my first year and while it's been tough, I am really happy with my choice. Plus, my cohort is amazing.

   Oh, maybe I should clarify--I'm a nurse (have been for 4 1/2 years) and got accepted into the DNP program (but starting with my BSN). So maybe we are talking about 2 different things :)

    Byrnsgrl replied to littlegreenRN's topic in Post Graduate

    SFLady, how do you like the program? What are you planning on doing with the degree? I just got accepted for Fall 2011 and am starting to have doubts (thanks to my Nurse Manager) that it will be useful. So I have been sitting on my acceptance letter ...

11. USF (CA) BSN-DNP Fall 2011

    Byrnsgrl posted a topic in Post Graduate

    I just recently got my acceptance letter--anyone else out there? I was totally excited until I told my NM (who is a CNS) who told me *and I quote* "You will be an overqualified, underpaid bedside nurse because there will be no jobs for you"... And no...

    I just returned from a week long trip to CO and was wondering if anyone had any feedback on University hospital (in Aurora), Medical Center of the Rockies, and/or Sky Ridge? My husband and I will be moving to CO in about a year and was just wondering...
