I am an international student. I will get my ADN in this June. I have my bachelor degree in other field. I am not qualified to apply for OPT anymore. My final goal is to be a family nurse practitioner. But I really need money and experience. Since I can work on campus,so I plan to go to a school with a hospital so I can study and work as RN at the same time. Is that doable? Any school you can recommend? Does it matter which school you graduate as a FNP especially for employment?

Not sure how you are going to manage this as you need to maintain full time student and can only work a certain amount of hours a week. I think it will be a case of ringing around and asking however I have seen that NP's are also struggling to find work so you may have an issue finding employer willing to sponsor you once you have finished training
