2. RN or DePaul MENP - Guidance Please

   Sakura_blossom replied to Simandl's topic in Pre-Nursing

   How much will the RN to MSN bridge cost you? While it may be cheaper to go the ADN route, the RN to MSN cost might end up being the same amount as DePaul's, so if that is the case, why make it 3 years longer when you can just get it done in two years...

4. Low GPA

   Sakura_blossom replied to fruitypebbles's topic in General Students

   Have you looked at Chamberlain? I believe it's min 2.75 gpa and then passing hesi and you're in. I went to an open house and it seems like a really good school. They have high pass rates for nclex and are accredited. It is $$$ though cause its a for ...

6. Aural learning style and a bad teacher

   Sakura_blossom replied to dayanara's topic in General Students

   I was in a similar situation as you once, but it was for a physics class. I thought her powerpoints were very short and I had a hard time understanding her. I talked to her after class and told her that I was having trouble so she tried helping me by...

7. Advice Please- MSN, no specialty?

   Sakura_blossom replied to Peace.Love.Cupcakes.'s topic in Post Graduate

   Check out DePaul's MENP program. It doesn't have the CNL focus, and doesn't require you to specialize. What I do like about it though is that it does incorporate core courses for advanced practical nursing (but it's general), so should you choose you...

   Hello all! I am very interested in joining the Navy Nurse Corps when I graduated from nursing school in 2014. I know that is very competitive now and was wondering what my chances were of getting in. A little about me: I am a prior service Marine of ...

9. DePaul Winter MENP 2013

   Sakura_blossom replied to Sakura_blossom's topic in Illinois

   Hi Steph! I was considering Rush as well. I think they are both good programs. My friend is in the same boat as you and he said the biggest difference he can see between the two is that Rush is more geared towards getting a CNL cert. DePaul incorpora...

    Hello All! I just received my acceptance email today for this fall cohort! I'm beyond ecstatic! I originally applied for the winter 2013 cohort, so I'm off to a late start for this upcoming fall semester. I think I may have missed the orientation so ...

14. Depaul MENP Essay question

    Sakura_blossom replied to Sakura_blossom's topic in Illinois

    Ah okay. That makes sense. Thank you soo much. I think I will just keep the essay positive the whole way through and hope for the best. I think I will also apply for ABSN programs as well so that I'm not entirely relying on Depaul to accept me into a...

15. Depaul MENP Essay question

    Sakura_blossom replied to Sakura_blossom's topic in Illinois

    Thank you for your advice! The essay asks what lead me to the decision of wanting to become a nurse and what my goals are after, and I have very specific goals so that won't be a problem. But is it still okay to mention the lower grades in the mix o...
