    How much do you owe in student loans?

    chempansy replied to MJB2010's topic in General Nursing

    What state do you live in? You don’t seem too hopeful about your “fate.” Things can always change around. I’m sure you could also work at a company that gives you loan forgiveness after some...

    How much do you owe in student loans?

    chempansy replied to MJB2010's topic in General Nursing

    Oh my god. Is that debt from your BSN and MSN? How much did each of those costs? Also, that’s a good starting salary for PMHNP. I thought it was lower than that. What state do you live

    Is going back to school worth it?

    chempansy replied to hcurry9's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I second the above poster. It really depends on the specialty you choose to pursue and the location. For example: FNP, some areas are more saturated than others. It tends to be a popular specialty...

    Concordia College ABSN 2020

    chempansy replied to krystalia3's topic in School, College Programs

    I think a portion of the reviews are because the school is expensive. And another part might be because of the level of difficulty some students entering the program neglected to

    Alvin Community College ADN Spring 2021

    chempansy replied to Ms.Beverly's topic in School, College Programs

    Are those the only programs you applied to? I strongly considered Concordia, but once the counselor told me my start date would probably be set back to Fall 2021 and that I’d have to retake some...

    They wanted me to retake a couple courses which would set me back to Fall 2021. Luckily, I got accepted to another program because I don't want to waste anymore time or energy waiting for other...

    I’m very sorry to hear about what’s going on with your family. I hope everyone is safe now. I would continue to apply to programs you’re interested in. Also, I would consider calling the schools...

    Accelerated BSN Program (Texas)

    chempansy replied to Bhtx's topic in School, College Programs

    I think it’s worth it! Personally, I just couldn’t wait any longer for these other programs. Everything is so competitive. Another year applying is another year I’m not an RN and I’m getting...

    Concordia College ABSN 2020

    chempansy replied to krystalia3's topic in School, College Programs

    When I say competency-based, I’m referring to them being a pass/fail school. They do not have a traditional grading system like other schools. You get a 3.0 regardless. The “pass” grade you get...

    Can I become pediatric nurse and CRNA?

    chempansy replied to Neha's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You shouldn’t become a CRNA for your parents. You should do it for yourself. I hope that if you decide to pursue that route, you do it because the field truly makes you happy. There’s nothing more...
