1. Older New Grad RNs Job Discrimination

   kathliz posted a topic in General Nursing

   I know that the job market for new grad RNs is extremely difficult at the moment. That said, almost everyone from my cohort (BSN/MSN) got jobs relatively easy at hospitals. I graduated in December 2010 with a BSN. I have out literally hundreds of ...

   I received an e-mail message on monday that I was wait-listed. I received the official letter yesterday. I should be happy, but I'm not. I have been turned down by every other program that I have applied to so CSUF is my only hope for this fall. ...

   kathliz replied to Hope271's topic in Pre-Nursing

   NSFA08, Thank you for your kind words of encouragement. I will have to do what it takes to get in. I cannot give up on my dream. Being middle-aged I do not have much time left and have fewer options. I really can't spend two years in an ADN progr...

    As far as I know UCLA doesn't have en EL-MSN NP program. They have an EL-MSN and separate MSN for NP program. I applied for the EL-MSN program and I was given the bad news the first week of March.

14. Did anyone apply to the CSUN A-BSN program?

    kathliz replied to Hope271's topic in Pre-Nursing

    700 seems way too high. Other than this program I have only applied to masters entry programs and they typically get 300-350 applications. I certainly hope that CSUN didn't get 700 applications (or even 300 for that matter!). I wouldn't stand a ch...
