   Hello all. It looks like the UND research methods class has closed. I guess I'll be taking the University of Washington course. IThe UND course should be offered in the fall though, so if that's something you'd be interested in doing for the fal...

   I actually just got an email back from Julie and the research methods course offered by the University of North Dakota will be accepted. So, if any of you are interested, I'm going to see if you can still register. If not, it might be a good option...

   This is a second career for me too. I was doing public relations/community outreach for a non-profit in Chicago, but quit my job when I decided I wanted to focus on getting my RN/APN and took a lower position within the same organization (the hours ...

   I am originally from Columbus, OH (go Buckeyes!!), but I have lived in Chicago for almost five years now. I currently live in the West Loop and love it (as it's close to school and close to downtown). If any of you are considering a move to Chicago...

   RMWC -- yup, that was me! I was the one who was worried I had missed something since all the 9:00 interviewees had congregated in the lobby. I'm glad we'll be classmates this Jan!! Congrats!!

   RMWC -- when did you interview? I'm wondering if we bumped into each other. I interviewed at 9:30 on Apr. 4th.

    Softenny -- You're going to do great! There are so many schools out there and so many paths you can take to become a nurse practitioner. You'll get there! And remember, you just started, so don't lose hope this early in the game!

    Thanks buzzj!! I appreciate the rec! :) I don't have a car, so it might be kinda hard for me to get to the Oakton campus, but I'll definitely look into it.

    Swimmer21--I applied for the adult/geri track. I'm hoping to hear some good news today, but if not I will apply to other programs - I'll get to NP somehow!! UIC would be a fan-flipping-tastic option, but it's also the only option I was able to apply...

    Swimmer21 - I will likely be applying for Rush also! I'd love to be able to just pick up and apply to schools that are out of state (especially schools that are located near a coastline), but I'm kinda tied down to Chicago for a while. Promise - I ...
