I think they may get rid of the ABSN+MSN and change it to the MN+MSN since its essentially the same thing.

@Mr. Southern NP Congratulations on the newborn! Thank you for the update. It is good to hear how upfront they are about everything. Sounds like a worthwhile practice. Best of luck to you and your family.

For those worried about when you should suspect vs not, there is 3 different combinations that meet criteria to be a person under investigation (PUI) from the CDC, simplified: 1. Symptomatic (febrile, cough, SOB) AND recent contact with a CONFIRMED case of covid-19. 2. Symptomatic (febrile, cough, SOB) AND recent travel to SPECIFIC areas affected (China, Italy, etc). 3. SEVERELY symptomatic (hospitalization level fever, cough, SOB) and other things have been r/o (I.e. flu) For those school nurses, if they're coming to you, they're obviously not #3. The first two are pretty specific. You can tell parents that their kids do not meet criteria to be a PUI. https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/hcp/clinical-criteria.html

That is for the ABSN+MSN program (also called the AMSN program). This post was about the Master of Nursing (MN) program that they are starting in August. It is very similar in name to the Master of Science of Nursing (MSN) but it is not the same. The names can get confusing.

Correct. Just to clarify for others that may be reading this now or in the future, although it is a masters level degree, it is NOT a program to become an Nurse Practitioner. Like mentioned above, you sit for the NCLEX and become an RN. It seems like it is an ABSN but in a masters format so instead of holding two bachelors degrees, you can hold a bachelors and a masters.

@Mr. Southern NP Thank you for the update and that's great to hear! Do you mind sharing some of the difficulties then mentioned? I wish you luck in the negotiations if they offer you the position.

It is interesting that people are calling it paternalistic when OP never specified whether the physician was male or female.

@Rex_Rudolph_III_APRN What is your certification in if you don't mind me asking? ACNP? FNP/AGPCNP? How did you go about getting those positions? I love cardiology and hope to work in that setting when I graduate.

I cannot help you with the negotiation aspect as I am just a student but it has always been my impression that for interviews like this, suits would be the way to go. Have you asked your friend in the other cardiology group what he thinks? At worst, you could wear the suit and tie, and if you feel overdressed, you can just take it off when you get there. Also, what did you wear to the other cardiology interviews? Either way, good luck!

Sounds like a good reason to update the resume!

Agree with others about considering the patient's social/family background.

@juan de la cruz If one wanted to practice in out-patient cards, based on your comment, is acute care or FNP more appropriate? I am starting an FNP program and am interested in out-patient cards. Thank you for all of your comments on this site, they have helped tremendously.

and an influencer!

@BrnEyedGirl That's awesome to hear. I know this is an old post but I was wondering, are you ACNP? FNP? What was your path to get there if you don't mind me asking? I am interested in cardiology but most of the information I see is about CCU-type roles but I am more interested in what you appear to be doing!

@ZenNurse2016 What route did you end up taking?

@NewbieFNP Did you end up taking that job? If so, how did you go about it?

What are some things you could do preemptively to maximize your eventual income, particularly as an FNP? What are some financial/career information you wish you had learned earlier? Once you are practicing, how can you increase income. Side gigs? PRN work? Curious to hear your thoughts. I know we aren't doing this job for money, but might as well aim high. Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone, I was wondering anyone here could talk about a career as an out-patient cardiology/CV NP. Most of what I see online is always about acute cardiac care, but I am interested in chronic treatment. How did you get there after graduating? Did you spend clinicals primarily in these settings? Any tips for getting there? Are you every at the hospital? Just want to hear more about it if any of you have direct or indirect experience. Thanks in advance!

Like another comment said, regardless of career, whenever someone resigns or is let go, fired, terminated etc., the HR department and/or your boss, determine if you are "eligible for rehire," usually based on company policy or extenuating circumstances. For example, someone let go due to financial constraints will usually be eligible for rehire. It completely varies, case by case. Usually if someone is terminated, they are not eligible for rehire but that is not always the case. Based on what you were told, you would be considered eligible for rehire. This means you are allowed to apply at any point later on.

I paid my deposit a while ago and have not received any checklist besides to send in FAFSA for both 2019-20 and 2020-21, and to send in proof of residency stuff (license, birth cert, etc). The rest I have been basing off of their previous lists, like the one I attached. Updated-Checklist-for-Undergraduate-Admitted-Students-7-2-18.pdf

Has anyone heard about financial aid? Does anyone know usually what they deem "need based" and/or "merit based"?

I didn't realize I had one. If you ever got a FAFSA email from them, there is a link to opus. There's a part of the page that says "Obtain network ID/password." I just did that and it gave me log in credentials. (if you didn't get that email, try this link https://saprod.emory.edu/psp/saprod/?cmd=login ) hopefully that works!

wow thank you for posting this, just checked and mine says that too!

I have had some green checks pop up for the classes I've taken, but my degree section is still red x's. I have already submitted my unofficial transcripts - is there anything else I need to do?
