1. St. Mary's MN 2018 CRNA program

   Minnesota Betty replied to SICUnurse33's topic in SRNA

   Amazing86 - That is really discouraging! I had to call and email several times to reach someone but eventually reached Daniel Lawrence and he was really helpful once I got him. Do you have his number? I can dig it up if not.

   Minnesota Betty replied to jls0459's topic in NP Students

   That is really too bad about traveling prior to orientation cancellation. Ugh. Has anyone heard about when orientation will be or if there will be one? What classes are you all taking? I'm in 591, 595 and 842. I'm also supposed to be taking 594 ...

   Hello! I applied late to the Duke FNP for spring semester 2017 and learned this week I was admitted, but I haven't officially accepted or paid the deposit. Can any of you tell me the on-campus dates for N595 Physical Assessment for spring 2017? Al...

   Clarabella - Thanks! Pmabraham - I took biochem at the U of MN. I took it in person - not online.

   I needed 27 or 28 for the BSN and I think 55 (total - that includes the 27 or 28 for BSN) for the MSN.

8. Has anyone done the WGU online RN to BSN program?

   Minnesota Betty replied to mightymitern's topic in Western Governors

   I started WGU in 2016 and was able to finish in one term. My goal was to finish as quickly as possible for employment reasons. If my goal had been to maximize learning (usually a goal) rather than to finish as quickly as possible, it would have tak...

   Which FB page? I search and find many with WGU and can't locate the one specifically for BSN. Any tips? Thank you!

    Minnesota Betty replied to mightymitern's topic in Western Governors

    I have the same question regarding sequence of courses. If there are some that take forever for whatever reason I want to start them right away so I don't get to the end and have them all done except the really long one.

11. Did not get into school.. Next steps

    Minnesota Betty replied to steffimiesha's topic in Pre-Nursing

    It will be all the sweeter when you are accepted. And you likely will appreciate it more and work harder in the program than you might have otherwise, not taking it for granted.

    If you can't pay out of pocket, you likely would qualify for an unsubsidized student loan.

14. New Nurse With Large Disposable Income

    Minnesota Betty replied to LDAthleteNurse's topic in New Nurse

    One more thing: Read what you can about money. Be careful about taking advice solely from one off the financial darlings in the media. From what I have seen, they give some great advice and some not-so-great advice, but they do provide nice enthus...

15. New Nurse With Large Disposable Income

    Minnesota Betty replied to LDAthleteNurse's topic in New Nurse

    Athlete2bNurseBSN - I love your enthusiasm and desire to plan. I read the first few pages of posts. My advice is to "settle in" with your budget and income before making big decisions. You might want not to make too many decisions the first few mo...
