    DePaul Direct Entry MSN

    mvanz9999 replied to ranka's topic in Illinois Nursing

    I was accepted, but am going elsewhere. I would call the school and ask specifically, because the admissions requirements are poorly written. I had 1 year of inorganic chemistry and 1 year of organic...

    Are accelerated programs fair?

    mvanz9999 replied to caro3334's topic in General Nursing

    That was my point all along, and another reason I decided not to go the "accelerated" route, because it really isn't.

    What can I do with a MSN?

    mvanz9999 replied to msdr's topic in Post Graduate Students

    My understanding is that you can complete an MSN in two years if you go full time (at least that's how my program is). Most people don't do that...I think a lot work at least part time and go to...

    Direct Entry GRADUATE NPs

    mvanz9999 replied to mvanz9999's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    You're asking ME? I have no idea. In my experience, PA's and NP's DO spend more time. I guess it's only a matter of time until they are exactly the same with time and production. In either case, is...

    Direct Entry GRADUATE NPs

    mvanz9999 replied to mvanz9999's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Part I: I don't really understand the point of the argument. A specialized NP has more specialized training than an FNP for a particular area of work. Therefore, an ACNP would have more specialized...

    Getting Additional Loans

    mvanz9999 posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    Well, the financial aid office has been less (MUCH less) than helpful. I will need aid beyond Federal Stafford Loans due to tuition. I know there is the PLUS loan, but this requires good credit. I...

    I feel like a complete idiot in my chemistry lab and so embarrassed!!!

    mvanz9999 replied to Susanna23's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    See thread on rudeness: https://allnurses.com/forums/103785-post1.html Yeah, I don't get it. What's the big deal? The assistant should be reprimanded for being a failure. I would have said, "OK"...

    mvanz9999 replied to berry's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    And if one needs an endorser, where would a person find one? I DO have adverse credit history which is secret. I certainly would not inform my parents or ask them to endorse a loan. In fact, I...

    Becoming an NP with little to no nursing experience??

    mvanz9999 replied to Blurr156's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    As much as I really, really want to believe this, it just isn't so. You can go and get any number of degrees in which the jobs are scarce. Go get a degree in the arts (performing, graphic, etc,...

    I believe the ones I looked at were perfectly fair. Unfortunately, the aren't so much "accelerrated" as it would have taken me at least 3 years to get all the pre-reqs in. I will assume you are...

    Advice from acute/critical care NP's

    mvanz9999 replied to CAPRN77's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I don't see why an ACNP COULDN'T legally do IM as long as there are no peds. In fact, there is no legal reason why an ACNP couldn't. Whether an actual job would present itself, I don't

    I don't go until january 08, but I am indeed dreading it. I'm interested in being a nurse, not a nursing student.
