   Old thread being bumped here. Georgian College does have a bridging program. I haven't looked into other schools. If you're from Ontario you can take the bridge program and write the provincial RPN exam. Hopefully, you have already been informed of t...

   almondhoney replied to maeyken's topic in International

   You're right; a Master's degree would take up to 2 years to complete. I guess I'll decide during my last year of Nursing exactly which route I'll be taking. Good luck to you & hope to talk again soon! :) Almondhoney

6. Would you leave for the USA??

   almondhoney replied to FutureNurse2005's topic in International

   Agreeing with HollieSRN06. Once I finish my BScN, and if medical school doesn't accept me then off to the USA I go to get my CRNA. Either way I'll end up doing what I'm in interested in doing. That or a Nurse Practitioner, I'm leaning more towards ...

   almondhoney replied to inodou's topic in General Students

   I'm pretty much in the same boat as javamom above. Although last semester I did work part-time up until November. At which time, I had to quit. I was burning out. And I don't start the Nursing program until September/03. I was taking Pre-Health, wh...

   Alexander, what is an Associates Degree? I've never heard of it in Canada? Are you talking about the diploma RN program?

   almondhoney replied to tonicareer's topic in General Students

   I have the same problem out here!! And the fact that I am so busy raising a family doesn't leave the time to volunteer, so I am taken out of the equation. Applied 2 years in a row & got zip!! I also have 4.0 GPA. Yes I say this is prejudice!! A...

    almondhoney replied to cokie's topic in General Nursing

    I'm on the brink of a divorce; as soon as I stick my nose in my books, the arguments start. I don't understand it! Right now as it stands, I hate men!!

13. Different pay and responsibility for 2 year RN's VS 4 year RN's

    almondhoney replied to kasey14546's topic in General Nursing

    I'm pretty sure that the BScN is the minimum requirement to enter the field (in Canada), regardless if you want to go into management or not. (Excluding the PRN's of course)

15. Pre-Med

    almondhoney replied to gwar17's topic in General Students

    Out here in the Great White North, not all schools require pre-req. for medical school, as long as you have a Bachelor's Degree. So I will be getting my degree in Nursing, then I might attempt medical school. Good luck to you! Almondhoney
