I'm not 100% sure that they would pay back on previous student loans but the guy I interviewd with said he is actually going for an MBA and they are paying his tuition at 4000/year. St Johns doesn't...

I have no direct information about St Johns but I have heard good things about it. I also heard that it has some of the highest paid nurses. That would probably be my first start when I begin...
in a Field, Does That Mean That's What You're Supposed to BE? Okay, I really am interested in nursing. I love watching The Critical Hour, Trauma Life in the ER, and all those other great medical...

Thanks for your response. I guess I shouldn't look to this website for encouragement. You are exactly correct in stating that I have to access my strength, weaknesses, etc. to determine if a career...

I guess if I said that I live and breathe nursing, I can't see myself doing anything else 30 years from now, I love the reward one can get from nursing, I absolutely love, love, love helping people,...
I thought this website's figures was too good to be true. I think here in St. Louis, the starting salary is around $18 - $19/hr. According to salary.com, the salary is around $60k/yr w/2 yrs exp. I...

Sometimes we have to choose a school that is convenient, which for me, outweights the "top ten" rated schools. I think it's important but other things come into play when choosing a school....
MailMan:lol2: , as far as being a parent, student, employee, etc., MailWomen have been doing it all along (and other MailMen as well). Go for it. You can do whatever your heart desires. I'm a...
I was very leary about the program being that it is an online program. I live in Saint Louis so I don't know how it works if you do not live here as far as clinicals. I've heard some pretty good...
Just because I didn't get a 4.0 doesn't mean I didn't work hard. I busted my tail off to get good grades. Minimums are set for a reason. Everyone is not going to get a 4.0 As long as I am above the...
Both BJC and SSM have student nurse programs (i'm assuming a PCT or NA). Does anyone know their salary? Do you have to work full-time to get the tuition reinbursement? I plan to quit my full-time...
I've seend this same statement posted so many times and have questioned it. Here in St Louis, many schools require a minimum of 2.5gpa for community college and 2.75 for universities. One of the...
This is so amazing to me. I have never met anyone - ever - who would retake a class just because they wanted to. If you pass, you've passed. Why take it again. You can find time to take study on...
I attend Flo Valley and Forest Park right now for pre-reqs only. I will begin Maryville this summer to take micro. Your GPA is great but again the only way to get accepted into Maryville is to have...
I'm taking my last 16 hours there to hopefully get accepted. The adviser said that students did get accepted with 16 credits hours but you have a better chance with more credits. Just talk with an...
Yeah, I see what you're saying. This information came directly from the counslers at the school - Maryville. They used to admit on a first come first serve basis with all minimum requirements being...
I have read a lot of threads where students say that their nursing schools required such a high gpa. The schools in my area don't. One of the best schools in Missouri (Maryville Univ) requires a...
