   I don't think you have to work FT, but you have to be working. You use work experience as part of school, you use it for credits, projects, etc.

   Thanks! Student loans.....ay. I've thought about doing a gov't repayment pgm but I am not sure yet! I've already got student loans from my first two degrees, what's a little more? Haha. I'm glad to hear there are positive experiences with UOP. Seems...

   Hey quick question... I'm looking for a bridge pgm RN-MSN, I'm willing to double up and get it done ASAP. However, do you need 3 years exp to do this pgm with UOP? Do you know if it is the same for the RN-BSN? Are any clinical hours involved at all? ...

5. Private Colleges???

   ehan31 replied to cnafromaz's topic in Utah

   If you go to Ameritech the credits will NOT transfer to another school for a BS. I know several people who have taken this route. If you would like a 2 yr RN and that is the end of the road for you, it might be a good choice. However, since it is not...

6. Staffing agencies in UT?

   ehan31 replied to ehan31's topic in Utah

   Thanks Krazy Coconuts! I'm a CNA w/exp, and I'll be taking my LPN boards really soon. I'm just trying to dig myself out of the financial hole I've dug for school (I'm getting my RN), and agencies tend to pay better...but I'm afraid of exactly what yo...

7. Staffing agencies in UT?

   ehan31 replied to ehan31's topic in Utah

   Thanks Krazy Coconuts. I'm a CNA w/exp, I'll have my LPN here in the next couple of months. I'm a bit afraid of exactly what you said--being thrown to the wolves, or just being treated like dirt in general. On one hand, I think it would be good to ge...

8. Staffing agencies in UT?

   Has anyone worked for a medical staffing agency in UT? (Any capacity-CNA/PCT, LPN, RN, tech...) They often have better rates of pay, but I don't know if this is something I should look into or not; I have never worked for an agency before. Thanks!

9. Private Colleges???

   ehan31 replied to cnafromaz's topic in Utah

   A little late, but... SLCC and Provo College are the only private colleges accredited as of now. Ameritech and UCC are NOT as of yet--if you want to advance to BSN later it is most likely your degree will not be accepted and you will have to take sev...

10. Provo College

    ehan31 replied to SuperSteff's topic in Utah

    I'll graduate in 09. I've liked the program pretty well so far. Small class ratio. My only challenge is that some of the students in the class haven't been in school for awhile, and struggle with rules/regulations/load so it has a tendency to bring t...

11. Florida newbie--UCF MSN?

    ehan31 posted a topic in Florida

    I'm moving to FL next year, I just bought a house in Celebration. I'm thinking about applying to UCF's RN to MSN, or at least RN to BSN. I've read a little here and there about UCF, but has anyone been there or applied to either of these pgms? Also--...
