    cfrimer replied to snowfreeze's topic in Nursing Career

    I am a very excited soon-to-be-nursing-student and one of the aspects of the profession that appealed to me was its variety. There are so many paths a nurse can walk! I can't wait to get started in...

    cfrimer replied to elizabells's topic in Post Graduate Students

  3. Going back to NW Ohio

    cfrimer replied to renerian's topic in Ohio Nursing

    cfrimer posted a topic in Post Graduate Students

  6. Going back to NW Ohio

    cfrimer replied to renerian's topic in Ohio Nursing

    Glad for the good new, renerian. I was born and raised in Toledo but have been on the East coast (Boston) since college. I just got accepted to several Boston-area direct entry NP programs and am...

  7. Choosing NP programs

    cfrimer posted a topic in Nursing Career

    Hi all, I was wondering about the relative importance of the accrediting organization for NP programs? Are CCNE-accredited schools "better" than NLNAC-accredited ones, or vice versa? Does it make a...

    cfrimer replied to sumdae's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    cfrimer replied to Angie O'Plasty's topic in Post Graduate Students

  10. MGH accepted students...

    cfrimer replied to Angie O'Plasty's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Hi Angie O'Plasty! I got the skinny envelope of doom, too; luckily I had just talked to a friend whose roommate was accepted to a grad program at Harvard via a suspisciously thin envelope, so I didn't...

    cfrimer replied to elizabells's topic in Post Graduate Students

    cfrimer replied to elizabells's topic in Post Graduate Students

  13. Direct-entry MSN programs

    cfrimer replied to elizabells's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Regarding the anti-DE sentiments... I have sensed this, too, from reading discussion boards (I haven't started my DE program yet). However, as I was making my decision to apply for DE, a veteran...

  14. Concerns as a male nursing student

    cfrimer replied to Skwidward's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Hi there, I'm not a guy, nor am I (yet) a nurse, but I'm planning to start NP school in the summer and I characterize myself as an introvert, too. I've found that my problem is very different...
