  2. Frontier Class 167

    Hi Maynard44, I found out on the waitlist for Class 167. Fingers crossed. Did you hear anything? Best wishes!
  3. I've done it (extended at an assignment I hated but paid well). It's a balancing act. What are your ultimate goals? I knew I would be traveling internationally for a few months and needed the $$ in the bank. In the end I'm glad I did it, but it was h...
  4. Anyone been to Montefiore in Bronx, Ny?

    Are you taking the housing stipend or letting them house you? I was housed in Yonkers when I worked there, and managed to take public transportations some times, but by the time I woke up/walked to the train stop/ etc. it took about 2 hours one way. ...
  5. Frontier from Canada?

    That is so encouraging to hear! Thank you! I'm a labor and delivery travel nurse who has been interested in becoming a CNM through Frontier for years. I'm also very interested in working a year long contract in Saudi Arabia, and have been researching...
  6. Waiting to Travel?

    Sometimes I just shake my head at the people who have less than one year of RN experience and think that somehow "they're the exception" to the 1 (preferably 2+) year standard of experience before being able to travel. That requirement is there for a...

  10. Going into travel nursing first time....

    Thanks NedRN. Did you sign a lease usually or no? And how soon did you meet roommates/look at houses prior to your assignment start date? (Sorry for all the questions. This would be my fifth assignment but first time taking the housing stipend, new t...
  11. Going into travel nursing first time....

    NurseRies, NedRN, and anyone else who has put the housing wanted ads on craigslist, did you see the apartment or unit before you agreed to stay there? What is the best way to go about that process of securing housing from craigslist without getting s...
  12. The nurses I know who volunteer overseas use their vacation time if they are staff. (There may very well be exceptions to this, I just don't know of any). The majority of nurses I talk to who volunteer for longer are either travel nurses, or retired....
  13. Finding own housing in NYC

    Has anyone on here found their OWN housing in New York City for a travel assignment? If so, I am interested in hearing about whether you used craigslist, airbnb, etc. I have found great threads on here about travelers finding their own housing, but c...
  14. Grad School while Travel Nursing

    Hi all, was just wondering who on here may have gone to grad school for some type of advanced practice nursing degree while they were still travel nursing? One travel nurse I met at my current assignment is doing the didactic part of her NP program t...
