    Frequency of communication from college

    Asherah replied to Hotflashn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Universities often have more financial resources than CCs/JCs to send mailings out to promote their programs and other student services they offer, but I definitely think that private universities...

    Mount St. Mary College MSMC Accelerated BSN Summer 2008!

    Asherah replied to Asherah's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm not attending MSMC, but I did apply and know a fair amount about their expectations. First, I would highly suggest attending an MSMC Nursing information session that are held at the Doheny campus....

    Best option to help in NS

    Asherah replied to KCnTexas's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you are not required to take any of the courses listed and this is just by choice, I would suggest Nutrition. I've had several nursing students tell me that they had to re-study their notes from...

    Stafford loan question

    Asherah replied to finallyfound10's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Filling out the FAFSA accurately and completely is all one needs to do. If you indicated on your FAFSA that you would like to apply for loans (as the FAFSA is used to determing eligibility for loans,...

    Anatomy and physiology too old!!

    Asherah replied to ledzep97's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think an important point that needs to be addressed is the fact that the if your only two options are two retake the courses or test out of them, then that's about it. Schools are never terribly...

    Asherah replied to reeindoubt's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Any Fall 2008 UCLA - MECN Program Applicants out there?

    Asherah replied to NSFA08's topic in Post Graduate Students

    a "second-degree" program can mean bsn or msn, if they are speaking of a 1-year completion term, they are most likely speaking of accelerated bsn programs like those offered at mount st. mary's...

    Anatomy & Physiology

    Asherah replied to thisismysn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Here in SoCal, most of the time Anatomy is offered as a separate 4-5 unit/credit course, as is Physiology. I chose to take Anatomy first (in a summer session) so I could master structure before...

    ABSN vs Generic MSN

    Asherah replied to megamiepona's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I have never heard of a hospital that would turn away a generic DEMSN holder (do you have specific examples?), as long as the program was accredited and recognized by the state, nor would I estimate...

    BSN interview and have questions

    Asherah replied to HeatherTN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think the original poster is speaking of a nursing program interview however, not a job interview. Still helpful information though, but just to clarify. Also, to the OP, you can search for...

    Accelerated BSN or ELMSN schools that are easy to get into?

    Asherah replied to SparkleRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Just to clarify, there are two tracks for the BSN at Hopkins, and thus the acceptance rate will vary. There are roughly 650 applications for the accelerated BSN program (13.5 months), of which they...

    Get RN in 2 yrs or less!

    Asherah replied to simplymemyselfandi's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would be wary of schools that don't require any core science pre-requisities, if you can even find them. Anatomy, Physiology, Microbiology (and sometimes Chem) are the bare bones pre-reqs, and if...

    Asherah replied to Agrippa's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I will be starting the BSN/MSN program at JHU in the fall and as I had already graduated in 2004 with my BA and had been out of school, I took all of my pre-reqs at a community college (in...

    GRE question

    Asherah replied to itsinthegenes's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Like Jennifer above, I think the key to making progress in the verbal section is boosting your vocabulary. I used the Kaplan and Princeton Review books to find the commonly seen vocab words and used...
