  1. Move to Pittsburgh?

    So, if UPMC is so terrible (The DarkSide...as one called it) what are the other hospitals in the city to work for? What schools have a good RN to BSN program, other than Pitt? I grew up in Ellwood City...loved my childhood there. I love the area, th...
  2. RN-MSN University MD???

    Also, 11/4 is an RN to BSM/MSN info session in the evening-6-7:30.
  3. Goals for student externship

    I was wondering how you may have fared in your externship or pursuit of one? I will be starting my nursing program in January and would love to find a similar oportunity in the area. (Balt.) Do you have any advice for me? Thanks!
  4. UMB Spring '09 applicants?

    Me either. I have a previous undergrad with a 2.6. I had a 3.47 or so in the 59 pre req's that UMB requires. I also had a 4.0 in all of the core sciences that they require. I know they look at those very closely, so focus on those if you can. Oth...
  5. UMB Spring '09 applicants?

    At this stage of the game, all you can do is wait. There will be people who choose to forfeit their spot, and then they will be systematically opening up spots. Try not to let it eat you up. I know how stressful the process is...I'm walking throu...
  6. Are BSNs grads preferred over ADNs grads in MD area?

    That is really affirming too. I am currently deciding between a spot in a BSN program and a scholarship paid ADN spot. Duh? Why I am confluxed is beyond me. I understand that it will take longer for the BSN but in the end, it will cost me next to...
  7. UMB Spring '09 applicants?

    Kiero..., I know how it feels to get yourself all worked up over something. It likely doesn't make you feel any better but, it will work out somehow. Have you applied anywhere else? Do you have a back up plan? Sometimes your "first choice" really mi...
  8. Doing RN to BSN and working as a new grad

    Thanks everyone. I have to decided to mail in my letter declining the university offer. I finally got a hold of someone in FA who confirmed to me all that I had researched on my own (no free $ for me) and while singing the praises of the low intere...
  9. applying to JHU SON ABSN, any advice?

    Last year, there was a huge long thread on the JHU ABSN progra. Do a search for JHU, Hopkins, John Hopkins...on the forum search.
  10. UMB Spring '09 applicants?

    First, you will receive your acceptance letter which will tell you that you are required to place a non refundable tuition deposit. I'm a little unnerved by having to put a large down payment down without having any idea what the FA offered might be....
  11. RN-MSN University MD???

    You need to go to a session or email the coordinator. The RN to MSN page is really quite confusing. It looks like it takes a similar amount of time but that is only because the page doesn't list the 28-40 credits you need in addiyion in your special...
  12. Doing RN to BSN and working as a new grad

    If I were young again, 20k would be relatively small. What i didn't mention, is that this is second degree, I have a family, and my husband and I both want to begin spending more time focused on the various urban ministries that we are interested in...
  13. Would anyone like to give their opinion, please. I am deciding between a BSN program and a CC program. The CC program would cost me almost nothing ($2500) b/c I have gained scholarships there. The BSN has not shared any information re: aid yet, but...
  14. Jobs for new graduates!

    Thanks for the info on the skin tag...I was just been advised to try the dental floss route by some family memebers but think i will stick with the friendly derm.
  15. AP1 during winter session at HCC or anyother cc

    How long is the winter session? Our winter session's (AACC) are only two weeks and I don't think A&P is offered in that format.
