Hey guys,
If you were accepted into graduate school for the 2009/2010 join this thread for some fun!
1. Name your school
2. Degree you will be working on (including specialty)
3. whether you will be working full time or part time or quit
4. Will you be attending part time or full time
5. And ...
I'm first
1. CSULA, my alma mata (hope I spelled that correct)
2. MSN, FNP
3. Full time all the way, got bills to pay
4. I initially wanted to go part time, which would take 3 years, but I might just go full time
5. I'm excited to go back to school, just hope I am not going to get too overwhelmed with school and work although I did exactly that as an undergrad.
Okay that was me, who is next??
What??? No one going to graduate school? Common we can't let nursing schools go bankrupt too!

Hey Ya'll...Here's my info...
1. Brenau University - Gainesville, GA.
2. Masters in Nursing - Family Nurse Practitioner
3. I'm a new grad and because I'm a direct entry student (I just graduated from Brenau with my BSN) I will be working fulltime in the PICU as i need to have my one-year experience before i start clinicals in the program.
4. I will be Part-Time (three years) as i just completed my BSN, all fulltime, and can longer continue the poverty cycle
5. I'm IN class once a month and the rest is online. Clinicals here in Atlanta as i live here and my school is here. I'm excited and both scared to be a new grad and to be starting the Masters program. But I'm also confident that i can do this. I can do anything if i committ to it and I'm definately committed to this! My goal was always to become a practitioner from the very beginning and i'm so happy that i'm in the last three years of my 8 year plan Although i'm getting my FNP i will specialize in Pediatrics once i'm done. The FNP is so i can have a broad scope of practice...cause you just never know ;-) Things have fallen into place with all my hard work and i look foward to the many challenges that lay ahead...let's do this!!!
