   Very helpful! Thank you! That is WAY way more than we get paid on the east coast!

2. Southern Cali pay - relocation from east coast

   nurseval86 posted a topic in California

   Hi everyone, I have been looking into relocating from Richmond VA to Southern California for a few months now, but have yet to find a quoted pay bracket. I'm hoping someone on here can help. Im a clinical nurse II with almost 2 years of experience o...

3. Got a job with VCU Health!! Anyone else work there???

   nurseval86 replied to RVARN2BE's topic in Virginia

   I think all new grads are required to do nurse residency - sometimes even if they've been at another job less than a year! We had an NP who came back to the bedside required to do residency because she never did bedside. We are one of few accredited ...

4. How is the Virginia job market for nurses?

   nurseval86 replied to WCSU1987's topic in Virginia

   At VCU they will hire ADN on the promise that you'll obtain your BSN (on VCU). I think we maintain 70 or 80% BSN?

9. VCU ABSN Summer 2017 Hopefuls

   nurseval86 replied to vcu17's topic in School Programs

   Hey vcu17. You sound like a great asset to the program. Retaking a class yielding a better grade is a good idea and shows determination. I don't think that would be a make it or break it deal though. My SATs were 1090 (on old scale of 1600) and GRE ...

10. Relocating to VA

    nurseval86 replied to Mackkt14's topic in Virginia

    It really depends on your own personal opinion... The highest price is 96$/month and comes out of your paycheck.. But there's also much cheaper lots/decks and a free one where busses run constantly in loops. Even though it can be frustrating to pay, ...

    I think PICU at vcu is hiring. You do pay for parking depending on where you want to park (and what's available). They make a killing in parking, but finding parking otherwise is near impossible. I love VCU though.

13. VCU ABSN Summer 2016

    nurseval86 replied to palmer15's topic in Virginia

    My GREs were 800 and my SATs 1090 (from a scale 11 years ago, out of 1600) - they said if you didn't take GREs they'd look at SATs. Not sure if they even look at either but both of mine were abysmal lol

14. Projected back to work date?

    nurseval86 replied to nurseval86's topic in Med-Surg

    In case anyone was wondering, I was out 5 long boring weeks! Couldn't go back until I was cleared from any restrictions.

    nurseval86 replied to palmer15's topic in Virginia

    Hi! It was the beginning of April I was pulled from the wait list. Yes you can buy hunter green scrubs and get them embroidered yourself. My experience with VCU school of nursing was incredible. Honestly, I don't think I would have gotten such amaz...
