1. Private loan and no co-signer

   Hmarie12 replied to Davis.M's topic in General Students

   My program is over $50K. It's an entry-level master's program. So to me, it's not that much and I would go. I would be worried that I got into this program, but I might not get into another one right away. Nurses make a decent salary. If you liv...

   No problem! Happy to help :)

3. PLU elmsn 2015

   Hmarie12 replied to May25's topic in Washington

   That's great that you work at a hospital already! It is hard to get a CNA hospital job with no experience. Took me 8 months after getting licensed! I think volunteering helped. I volunteered in the ER for a year before I became a CNA in that same...

4. Will I ever become a nurse?

   Hmarie12 replied to PrettyNerd's topic in CNA/MA

   Haters are going to hate. If you want to be a nurse, be a nurse! I graduated high school in 2008 and am starting nursing school this year. I felt at times like I would never get here. I was having an especially hard day once and someone said that I...

   Hmarie12 replied to May25's topic in Washington

   1. Alright! So, I applied while I was taking my last pre-req too (micro also haha). I thought about applying even earlier, but decided not to. I wanted my application to be the best it could possibly be when I turned it in. I sent my transcripts to...

7. Entry level Master in Nursing

   Hmarie12 replied to khangl1's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Hey there! I also have a non-nursing bachelor's degree (although yours is much more related than my business degree haha) and will be starting an ELMSN program this June. I chose this route because I wanted to earn my masters in an accelerated time f...

11. 2014 PLU applicants?

    Hmarie12 replied to Just_keep_swimming's topic in Washington

    Thanks!! So I'm gonna see when I get there. I am interested in NP but think I might want some experience first. Also, PLU has a DNP program now. I am not sure if that means they are no longer going to have FNP or what but I don't think I want to get ...

13. Is it worthwhile to become a CNA before going to nursing school?

    Hmarie12 replied to little-chick2's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I think it is a good idea, it can only help you. I was also told not to bother by a current nursing student, but I am glad that I did become one. You may not get much experience in that timeframe, but even the clinicals required for your cna class ...

14. Nursing newbie with some questions!

    Hmarie12 replied to Jkadkins's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I will be starting my program in June. I currently work as a CNA in the hospital. While I don't think there is a nursing shortage (maybe there is somewhere!) we are often short-staffed on my unit and most of the newer grad nurses I work with had no...
