Hello everyone, I am also interested in an answer to the first poster. I want to become a neonatal nurse practitioner. How much experience should I seek after I finish my BSN program? Or should I just start my MSN program r...

Hi Rookierunner9, I have a little advice...being that you have your Bachelor's in Psych.......have you considered an accelerated program. I just transferred to Seton Hall this semester and I have met many people who have degre...

I applied to Bloomfield College, Mountainside Hospital School of Nursing, and Rutgers. I didn't get accepted to Rutgers, and Mountainside had already accepted their desired amount of applicants. I did do very well on the NET, and they told me that I ...

Hello everyone, Well, it's official....I start Seton Hall University in the Fall as a pre-science major. If I do really well, and earn a 3.0 gpa this semester...I'll be accepted into the nursing program. I have a lot of questi...

Oh, and I forgot to mention...I applied to UCC/Trinitas a year and a half ago, and here they are inviting me into the program. Fatima

Hello everyone, I haven't posted in awhile, so it's good to be back. I just received a letter from UCC/Trinitas, and they invited me to start NURE 130 for the fall. The letter had 4 sessions that NURE 130 is being offered. I ...

I talked to a fa officer from my school yesterday and she told me that the school only participates in the NJ Class Loan program. I went to the HESAA website and researched the qualifications on the loan. I found out that the loan is given based on...

I'm just curious....most of the nursing students in my courses are about my age....29 give or take a few years...lol....but I was told that the daytime students are a lot younger. Fatima "RN to be in 2004"

and visited the College of Nursing. There were two information sessions...one was about the college of nursing and it's curriculum...the other was a tour of the nursing skills lab. I was very impressed by what I heard, I had hoped I would be admitt...

IMHO, I say get in a study group. I started my first semester of nursing school in the Fall of 2004. I have always been a loner when it came to studying, so I figured I could do it on my own. As the semester went on, I realized that I did need to ...

I say do wha's best for your career goals. Education is priceless....and so are the lives of the people that you will be caring for. I will be starting a BSN program in August (my second attempt at nursing school). Initially I was in a A.S. progra...

:uhoh21: Hi everyone.... :) . I haven't been here in a while so it feels good to be back. I am seeking some serious advice about nursing school. I was accepted into a private college for the Fall of 2005. I won't start my nursing courses until Fa...

I'm starting at Bloomfield College in the Fall. I won't start the nursing program until Fall 2006...that is if I pass the NLN. My counselor told me that it covers all courses. I am going to purchase a book to study from. Fatima

Really, only 60%. Could you send me the link to the NJBON website. Thanks. Fatima

I failed my first semester by 2 points and my community college doesn't give you a second chance to start over. This is really ridiculous...but that's okay. This experience has given me more drive and perserverance in my career goals of becoming a ...

I hear ya, I have been thinking that I should still shoot for Rutgers. If I get accepted into the Newark College of Arts and Sciences and complete 24 credits, finish with a gpa of 3.4 or higher, I could do a college to college transfer....

Hi, Thanks for the words of encouragement. I did complete my application online. I have to send for my transcripts from ECC and high school. I hope I get accepted somewhere..... . Fatima

Congratulations!!!!! That's wonderful news.... . While you're going through the program....always say to yourself, "I'm going to be an R.N....I"m going to be an R.N.!!!" Fatima

Sad, I have 3 words for you "Don't GIVE UP!!!"....... if being a nurse is your destiny...quitting is not an option. I do know how you feel, last semester I worked sooooo hard (as we all do)...I passed the Clinical and Lab. Skills portion of th...

Hi Cheryl, It sounds like your responding to my post. At my school a 75 is a "C".....I received a 73 for my course grade. Some schools have a retention program...for example at my school the only way to get accepted a 2nd time for t...

Hi everyone, I know I haven't been around in awhile and I apologize for that. It's been an intense first semester of nursing school. The bad news is that I checked my grades this morning on the internet and I didn't make it. I ear...

Thanks for the hugs Maggie... :) . I wish I could take Nursing 107 over....lol. The course is divided into 3 sections.....Clinical (which is Pass or Fail...I am proud to say that I did pass.), Laboratory Skills (is also Pass or Fail...and I passed ...

Hi everyone, Thanks for the kind words and encouragement. I'm just replying to your post mainly because I got my computer fixed this morning...talk about catching up...lol. As far as my school having a retention program....they only way...
