2. UNLV, budget issues, nursing schools

   NVhike replied to vegas2009's topic in Nevada Nursing

   People from out of state just come here to go to school then, they usually go back to their states. But it is a bad deal for locals who want to stay. Even before the crisis, most of nv graduates...

3. UNLV, budget issues, nursing schools

   NVhike replied to vegas2009's topic in Nevada Nursing

   UNLV gets most of the money anyway, maybe it's time they gave back to the state. The nursing program is not immune, no one is. I hope things get better, even if people get their RN degree here, theyd...

5. Which school is better for nursing???

   NVhike replied to pilot833's topic in Nevada Nursing

   I wish I applied for UNLV instead. CSN is great, but with the work that the nursing program demands, I would've been better off with UNLV! It's true, you work just as hard or in some cases, even...

6. So excited to begin program! (CSN Spring '10)

   NVhike replied to SockMonkey.ecb's topic in Nevada Nursing

   I remember the first time I saw the CSN syllabus last year, I suddenly got a headache from it! It's overwhelming! It doesn't matter what school you go to. It's just a question on how much money...

   NVhike replied to moneyline702's topic in Nevada Nursing

   I agree CSN and UNLV are good schools. They SHOULD be, both their nursing programs have been around for more or less 30 years! They should've perfected their systems and they have. NSC's nursing...

    NVhike replied to PacoUSA's topic in General Students

    as a nursing student myself, everyone who has posted on this thread should read the threads on nursing news from actual practicing, experienced, laid-off and recent rn graduates for months/year and...

12. RN Aesthetician - Anyone have any input?

    NVhike replied to Vegas New Grad's topic in Nevada Nursing

    i've heard of a few nurses in the past who do this kind of work part-time but they all have been nurses for a while though. i didn't know you can do it as a new grad. hope all goes well for you with...

    NVhike replied to Hello_Nurse_2B's topic in Nevada Nursing

    I think everyone who goes to nursing state schools feels like you do. State schools have been around much longer, they have at least 20-25+ years headstart compared to these "new" schools (except for...
