Black Coffee RN

Hello everyone, I looked it up and saw that no one starts a thread for SJSU yet. I am applying to SJSU MSN-FNP Fall 2017 cohort. I don't know if SJSU has the FNP program before, or this is the first time they start this type of program. They just clo...

Hi beeker, The program is $385 per credit hour with a total of 44 credits. Black Coffee, RN

Columbus State University in Georgia is a great brick and mortar school that offers online FNP program. The tuition is very affordable with no campus visit. They are accepting applicants for Spring and Fall 2021.

Congratulations!

I am a BS, BSN, RN right now. I am really interested in getting an FNP certificate at first with a concentration in biochemistry and molecular biology also/and a minor in Psychology. I got my BSN, RN after finishing school at UCD, a great school name...

It is unfortunate to have a clinical instructor like that. I remembered all my clinical instructors in school were very skilled at their teaching job because they are all experienced nurses with at least five year nursing experiences. I was lucky tha...

It is great that everybody supported you. I am enjoying a glass of wine with four days off after my last twelve-hours-shift work too!

Hi everyone, I am in my second semester of a MSN-FNP program. I always want to become a Nurse Practitioner and get an advance degree. One of the main reason for me to pursue NP is due to much better schedule and hours so that I can start a family. Ho...

Don't give it up too soon if nursing is truly your passion. You might have test anxiety like others said. My advice is to find out what went wrong when taking test. Maybe you can talk with a learning specialist to find out. Good luck with trying out...

I am so sorry that you had to jump many hoops. Life is hard in that way. Sometime in order to get something valuable (I am sure the title RN does), we have to sacrifice and suffer for it. To my understanding, why don't you repeat the failed class at ...

Congratulations for being accepted to your nursing program. The next couples of years will be hard, but you CAN definitely do it. It will not be easy, but with commitment and determination, you will be successful. I am also working full-time and stud...

Whether to pursue FNP or ACNP depends on which settings you want to practice as an NP. If you like primary care setting doing a lot of patient teaching and managing chronic conditions as well as treating not acute conditions, FNP is the way for you. ...

The first thing we learn was how to measure blood pressure manually.

Hi all, I am in my first semester of MSN-FNP program. I know that this is still early. However, I want to ask if any FNP out there are willing to train me for next summer semester 2019 in the Bay Area, CA. I need 610 hours of clinical hours for pedia...

In my understanding, per-diem nurses usually make somewhat 15-20% more than full-time nurses due to no benefits. I hope this help.

I am in school for FNP and do it part-time. Going to school part-time allows me to work full time. It is truly busy but I still can manage. However, I anticipate to work minimally next summer due to clinicals.

I second what RN_true12 said above. The job market in the Bay Area and Southern CA is very competitive. It is very hard for a new graduate RN to get a job in the hospital as every acute care position requires one year of experience. The cost of livin...

Calm down. You are just worried too much which is normal for every nursing student. I had the same experience like you since I had never done any catherization before my practicum. Luckily during practicum, I had plenty of chance to do it. Your prece...

My class had seven male nursing students (including me) over a total of 23 students. Most of my professors are also female. However, all the female nursing students and professors treat us male students the same as female students. There were no diff...

Good luck on your future endeavors, Rob. Wish you the best.

I am in MSN/FNP program right now. I work and study at the same time. As a result, I sometimes want to give up MSN and just work as a bedside nurse because it is really too much. However after reading this thread, I have more motivation to keep going...

Hello everyone, I am an RN who have two years of experience working in an ICU floor. I am currently working full-time while attending part-time in a MSN-FNP program online. I am in my first semester with advance pharmacology and EBP classes. While t...

I am doing exactly like what renzlao is doing. I will work full time and study part time. Because I take two summer sessions, I will still finish my program in two years. For the last 3 semesters with clinical, I plan to do two 12 hour shift at night...

My goal for 2018: 1. Start my MSN - FNP program. Actually I will start my program in one week. 2. Eat more healthy and exercise more. This is my resolution for this year. 3. Read more books since I can't travel much this year due to working and study...

Reading your post reminds me of my old time back. I was a college grad with a degree in Biology wanting to apply to pharmacy school. However after working in a pharmacy store as a pharm tech, I definitely know that pharmacy is not for me. Long searc...
