   Volunteering Internationally

   Dyson posted a topic in General Students

   I start a two year BSN program this Summer, I will have next Summer off. I am looking for a volunteer/internship preferably in the Middle East next Summer. I don't need chef prepared meals or fancy housing, I have worked abroad and an experience in Ethiopia is what let me to go back to school for nursing. Any advice or recommendations on a program would be much appreciated! (I speak Arabic and am currently an EMT)

   After nursing school I hope to get into a fellowship program and work in the ICU. My long term goal is to be a CRNA.

   ASN vs. BSN

   Dyson posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

   I am switching career paths and finishing up my prerequisites. There are two programs in my area (Northwest Arkansas), accelerated associate of nursing and a B.S.N. program. I already have a master’s degree but in an unrelated field so I would love the idea of an accelerated program but I am worried if I go with the ASN I might have a hard time getting hired after nursing school. I am also planning on getting my MSN. What program would you suggest? Does anyone know if it is hard to get hired with an ASN in NWA?
