1. Maryland BSN hopefuls for Fall 2012

   Student4_life replied to ixchel's topic in Maryland

   JHU is ungodly expensive, add the commute to and from, as well as to the clinical sites + parking for both and tuition is just the tip of the iceberg. Wait it out and apply to UMB @ SG.

4. Looking to buy UMSON BSN textbooks!

   Student4_life replied to Hargrove86's topic in Maryland

   I'll sell you all my stuff, and give you my scrubs and lab coat too (as long as youre a size medium). I decided halfway thru my first semester that nursing wasn't for me (left with A's and B's so its not like I flunked out, just didn't like it as muc...

5. UMB Spring 2012

   Student4_life replied to kels320's topic in Maryland

   The wait takes forever, but they are just as eager to tell you as you are to find out. That being said, when you guys find out I have books and gear to sell. After breezing thru and enjoying my pre-reqs I found that Nursing wasn't my thing, so I hav...

6. UMB FALL 2011

   Student4_life replied to kayroool's topic in Maryland

   It's not a survive or not kind of thing. Don't psyche yourself out. Don't get me wrong, it's difficult, but very doable (I am putting in the same effort that got me A's in pre reqs and getting high B's at UMFC, but my more studious classmates are pul...

7. UMB prerequisites, help please!

   Student4_life replied to ambz13's topic in Maryland

   Really focus on your 4 sciences. Those are the most imp. classes. Exactly how they view a failed class, req or not, is up in the air. I say take this event and run with it, pull all A's from here on in so that it's on admissions shoulders and not you...

8. Petition to forgive student loan debt!

   Student4_life replied to Devie06's topic in General Students

   And if communism is so great why has it never been implemented??? Without the promise of greatness, where does the motivation to be great come from? Why would doctors and engineers work so damn hard to get a degree if they would get paid the same as...

9. Petition to forgive student loan debt!

   Student4_life replied to Devie06's topic in General Students

   To all those that complain that school should be free: just look at how much money is wasted on Pell grants that never result in a degree. And even if school was free, there is still the cost of room, board, and books (not to mention transportation, ...

10. What would you do if you received more scholarship money than you needed.

    Student4_life replied to Student4_life's topic in Student Assist

    Thanks for all your input. After much internal conflict I have decided to accept the additional funds and use them to pay for "wants," namely a new computer that my other scholarships wouldn't have covered. Well that and to pay taxes and social secur...

11. What would you do if you received more scholarship money than you needed.

    Student4_life replied to Student4_life's topic in Student Assist

    I should clarify.Let's say the merit based scholarships were all received legitimately, and that the first 3 paid for the complete cost of going to school, tuition and fees covered, as well as a sizable monthly stipend, also include another 10k in sc...

12. What would you do if you received more scholarship money than you needed.

    Student4_life posted a topic in Student Assist

    Just a question. No malice around it, nor is it a class assignment. Just me wanting to know what you would do if you were given one more partial scholarship than you needed. Would you accept it and give it to a classmate? Would you buy your program ...

13. Maryland BSN hopefuls for Fall 2012

    Student4_life replied to ixchel's topic in Maryland

    You might want to worry a lil' bit, GPA alone doesn't get you into Maryland. You really got to bring it all: GPA, LOR, TEAS, volunteer work, and a well edited personal statement. My application GPA was well over a 3.8 and I feel that my GPA helped me...

14. Associates vs Bachelors Degree

    Student4_life replied to ysin's topic in ADN/BSN

    An ADN isn't always cheaper. There are boatloads of for profits on both sides of the 2 year vs 4 year entry to practice debate. Additionally your public and prestigious private universities have more money to throw around to attract qualified and des...

15. You paid HOW MUCH for nursing school??!!

    Student4_life replied to NSGstudent12's topic in General Students

    I can't believe anyone would pay to learn path, or to work 12 hour clinicals. Now on a more serious note 40k a year is alot, but if it means that much to someone what is it for us to judge (personally I think it is a much better idea to get the grade...
