   Hi, I am a foreign student hoping to get a job as a nurse in a hospital in the US after getting an Associate's degree from a college here in NYC (I'd like to bring my parents here who have it tough where they are right now; this is pretty much the on...

2. Columbia ETP 2010

   clearly replied to eyeontheprize's topic in New York

   Yeah, I thought that calling later in the day today might be a good idea, since they'd have a better sense of things by now... But seems that there was still the possibility of Monday looming! Also, I do recall noticing that last year's applicants ...

3. Columbia ETP 2010

   To everyone else who's feeling as anxious: Just called and Naveed said that they were looking to send out emails by batches and are hoping to send the biggest batch of responses out by tomorrow, but he also said that if things have to be delayed till...

4. What kind of a person works Acute Care?

   clearly replied to clearly's topic in NP

   Moving to the NP forum would be hugely helpful, thanks!! I applied to Columbia's ETP program. It seems that people are allowed to work as an RN after the BS has been completed, but doesn't appear to be a mandatory requirement, no.

   clearly replied to clearly's topic in NP

   I knew the difference; was just waiting to hear the particular details of different challenges associated with NP experiences from you. I'm taking it all in (hearing about RN experience as well as NP experience) because I still have the B.S part to...

   clearly replied to clearly's topic in NP

   Thanks so much for the reply. ANAL is great. I can do that; & I prefer to be like that. How emotionally involving is it, though? Also, how much responsibility is in the care of the nurse? For instance, do you have an example of a major procedur...

   clearly posted a topic in NP

   Does one need to be particularly hard core for this? I'm new to nursing, applying to BS/MS program; and am choosing Acute Care as my speciality because gerontological isn't available (I hope to be able to switch to that later on -- but that's another...

10. Associate degree BMCC before doing Columbia's ETP?

    clearly replied to clearly's topic in General Nursing

    Hey ShippoRN, thanks so much for the advice. I truly appreciate it! I've been wondering about the Associate degree myself and from an outsider's perspective, it all looks the same. But I appreciate your sharing your experiences on the job market scen...

11. Associate degree BMCC before doing Columbia's ETP?

    clearly posted a topic in General Nursing

    Hi all, I have a question: does it make sense to do the Associate degree (e.g. from BMCC) before applying to a fast track BS/MS like Columbia's ETP? I have a Masters degree in Humanities but I have to complete pre-req's for any fast-track program....

12. Question on pre-reqs and my chances for admission to nursing school!

    clearly posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

    Hi, I'm very new to this but was under the impression that I could do my pre-reqs before school started next year, and not before I applied to nursing schools. It seems to depend on the schools? I'm obviously a noob here but am interested in apply...
