  1. F1 Student requires Nursing License to continue into RN

    RNGrad2006 replied to Midnightbacardi's topic in International Nursing

    I was in your exact position. Doing the PN but already on a waiting list for an RN program but my LPN to RN program required a LPN license in order to continue in the RN program. In my last quarter...

  2. Grand Canyon University... RN to MSN/education program

    RNGrad2006 replied to 1996RN's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Thanks...I have taken advantage of tuition reimbursement and did not pay anything for tuition for my BSN but may have to put in some of my own funds for the Masters since I now am planning on going...

  3. Grand Canyon University... RN to MSN/education program

    RNGrad2006 replied to 1996RN's topic in Post Graduate Students

    They will likely make you take a bridge into the Masters program. The bridge is probably at least 5 classes or so and if you have an affiliation that allows for a discount it worked out for me to...

  4. US Nursing student needs help in Canada.

    RNGrad2006 replied to Bek1975's topic in International Nursing

    I completed an ADN program in Washington State and then was accepted to do a RN to BSN program in Canada. It is possible. But I would definitely complete your ADN program in Texas first. Not sure...

  5. Sick to my stomach

    RNGrad2006 replied to 2bornot2b's topic in International Nursing

    Don't worry you probably passed. The reason you don't feel you did well is because the pass rate is at approximately 65% and many of us had to do a lot better than that in nursing school to pass...

  6. waiting out retrogression - will this work??

    RNGrad2006 replied to amulam's topic in International Nursing

    Anyone following immigration closely knows that employers are unable to wait for employees for the time it takes to obtain a visa. AOS is not possible now and the economy is down so the incentive is...

  7. waiting out retrogression - will this work??

    RNGrad2006 replied to amulam's topic in International Nursing

    I agree with this poster...or even move on for a Nurse Educator. You may not have the required years of experience in order to obtain a position as Nurse Educator and not sure if the CNS route would...

    RNGrad2006 replied to Curious1alwys's topic in Arizona Nursing

  9. Physician office job

    RNGrad2006 replied to Cek4k4's topic in General Nursing

    You might be more likely to find a job working in an office that is connected with a hospital. That was my experience in Washington State and was told it was due to maintaining Joint Commission...

  10. who owns the greencard..you or your job?

    RNGrad2006 replied to bermuda02's topic in International Nursing

    There is such a thing as AC21 which makes your original employment portable to a new employer. The new employer takes over the initial petition while you are still waiting to obtain the green card...

  11. Grand Canyon University... RN to MSN/education program

    RNGrad2006 replied to 1996RN's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Wow...you might want to look at the details as I found ASU to be more expensive. The tuition might not be but they add in a lot of fees with their nursing programs and found it to be a lot higher at...

  12. A Canadian nurse with a NY education has questions about Visas

    RNGrad2006 replied to NotReady4PrimeTime's topic in International Nursing

    If you are going to school in the US you might want to think of applying for OPT prior to graduation. This gives you work status for 1 year and then you can apply for Visascreen in the meanwhile....

  13. TN Status

    RNGrad2006 replied to bbradford's topic in International Nursing

    I am suprised this was not known to you. This has been in process for many years now. I am also Canadian but went to school in the US and this did NOT release my need to obtain a Visascreen. It is...

    RNGrad2006 replied to Nice_earyen's topic in Canada CRNE, CPNRE Exams

    I am so happy for you. Was following this thread because I tested in October and was really hoping you would pass this time. I was pretty confident you would pass from your reaction to the exam....

  15. How To Become a NP?????

    RNGrad2006 replied to saerakay's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Keep in mind though since you are only starting the LPN program that there is a possiblity you will not be able to get your education done in time before they change the NP program to doctorate level....

  16. CRNE February 2010

    RNGrad2006 replied to Nice_earyen's topic in Canada CRNE, CPNRE Exams

    That is plenty...just relax and take a breath...I only went through the CNO book twice and did fine last October. Anxiety is going to be the thing that either makes or breaks your day. NCLEX and...

    RNGrad2006 replied to StaRNew's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I am also a Canadian citizen but was educated in the US and had to follow all the procedures of Internationally Educated Nurses in order to take the exam in Canada. The assessment process is also...

  19. CRNE February 2010

    RNGrad2006 replied to Nice_earyen's topic in Canada CRNE, CPNRE Exams

    I am not sure it is the content/competencies of the exam that is making things unsuccessful for you. I remember nursing instructors discussing that reading into the question is a source of a lot of...

    There are a lot of threads on this and would recommend checking out the Canadian nursing forum. Look for the stickies...but things are tough in Canada now too from what I have read. There are no...

  22. Visa screen.

    RNGrad2006 replied to MomenTs's topic in International Nursing

    What are you studying? Normally you can't get the Visascreen until you have passed NCLEX already. Do you have your RN completed already and just on F1 to maintain status due to Retrogression? The...

    RNGrad2006 replied to acutems's topic in International Nursing

    Its about time...I thought the all day exam was WAY too long!!! It got kind of repetitive after a while. And you get so fatigued that towards the end I didn't even care any more because my brain was...

    RNGrad2006 replied to JazzysMama's topic in Arizona Nursing
