1. ECPI bachelor's to BSN 2020

   futurern13 replied to futurern13's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I am currently in the program. My experience so far has been good. The program is very fast-paced and tough, which can be expected since it is so accelerated. You really have to put in the effort and the program will pretty much be your whole life fo...

   Yes I did!

3. Does the state you get your degree in affect where you can practice?

   futurern13 replied to futurern13's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Thanks so much!

4. Does the state you get your degree in affect where you can practice?

   futurern13 replied to futurern13's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Thank you both for your responses. I currently live in PA (but on the border so I have always worked in Maryland). I am planning to attend school in Florida though. Do you know if they are compact states or if there is a specific website where I cou...

5. Does the state you get your degree in affect where you can practice?

   futurern13 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

   I am planning to attend an ABSN program in a state other than the one I currently live in. I do not know if I plan to stay in that state after graduating but I want to make sure my degree will be able to be used in other states also if I don't want t...

6. Physician Assistant or RN

   futurern13 replied to implathszombie9's topic in Pre-Nursing

   PA is a good career. I was enrolled in a PA program but did not graduate unfortunately. I went to a newer school that had tons of issues but I did well in my classes. If you do decide to pursue that route, just make sure you attend a school with a go...

7. ADN vs ABSN vs DEMSN?

   futurern13 replied to miqbal1109's topic in General Students

   I have done a lot of research on these paths as well. I think ADN is a great option if you want the cheapest way to become a nurse. And I have many friends that have gotten their BSN and MSN later through employers. Nurses are crucial so I really don...

8. Accelerated BSN Programs still accepting applications for Fall 2020

   futurern13 replied to gabriela862's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I have applied to and been accepted to a couple of ABSN programs within the past month. Although things are filling up, some schools still have openings and people change their minds. Most of the schools I've been applying to are in PA. It depends ho...

9. Aspiring to Become a Nurse

   futurern13 replied to AspiringBlackMaleNurse's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Some master's programs are direct entry for people who have a bachelor's in any field, not necessarily just nursing. I have been accepted to both ABSN and direct entry MSN programs. I have a bachelor's in biology from a previous institution. I am pla...

10. ABSN vs Direct Entry Masters Program.

    futurern13 replied to kesha111222's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I have been trying to decide between these programs also. I am leaning towards direct master's programs because they seem to be about the same cost and length of time. I would rather personally have an advanced degree so I can grow. If you want to st...

11. ASN vs. BSN

    futurern13 replied to Dyson's topic in Pre-Nursing

    If you are planning on getting a master's anyway, you could look into direct entry master's nursing programs. There aren't a ton of them, but if that is your ultimate goal anyway it may be into looking in to.

12. Aspiring to Become a Nurse

    futurern13 replied to AspiringBlackMaleNurse's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I am not from out of the country but I have noticed the same thing regarding ABSN. Have you looked into direct entry master's programs? Many are around the same price as ABSN and this is an option if you would like to further your education without g...

13. Are two lab classes in one semester doable?

    futurern13 replied to achung101's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I think it is doable. I have taken multiple science classes at once. Sometimes the information overlaps and it may be beneficial for you in that way. I also think it will be good preparation for school because you will be used to a heavy schedule.

14. Would you recommend a direct-entry Masters Program or Accelerated BSN?

    futurern13 replied to Dhooy7's topic in Pre-Nursing

    @joe090909 I will try to message you. I'm not sure if I have enough posts to do that yet but I will see.

15. Former PA Student: ABSN or Direct Entry Master's

    futurern13 replied to futurern13's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I have actually done more research since I made this post and I have been accepted to a direct MSN program so I am thinking I will go that route. I have heard that many post master's certificates do not take a super long time to complete so I do not ...
