  1. Simmons University School of Nursing FNP online program

    BlondieRN09 replied to TashaLPN2006RN2012's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I'm glad you're liking it. That makes me nervous though! I also work full time. I was going to start out part time in the program to see how I do. I will quit working and bump up to full time when...

  3. Simmons University School of Nursing FNP online program

    BlondieRN09 replied to TashaLPN2006RN2012's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I submitted my app over the weekend and am so nervous now! My enrollment advisor was super nice and helpful, but he said he wasn't able to review the statement of purpose or resume, but could answer...

  4. I'm not really a nurse until I sign "RN" after my name

    BlondieRN09 replied to NewNurseAlert's topic in General Nursing

    Bashing networking? I interpreted it to be more of venting her frustrations with it... maybe I'm wrong

    BlondieRN09 replied to Kabin's topic in School, College Programs

    I graduated from GCU's BSN program, and I can honestly say that I learned what I did, I passed my boards on ethe 1st attempt, and I got the job I have all because of my own efforts and because of the...

  7. I'm about to lose my MIND!!

    BlondieRN09 replied to kemkem's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I haven't ever heard anything about the blue/grey screen thing, but I'm sure that's just a myth. I took the RN exam, and mine was grey at the end and I passed. I've got my fingers crossed for you,...

  8. I'm not really a nurse until I sign "RN" after my name

    BlondieRN09 replied to NewNurseAlert's topic in General Nursing

    I agree, it wouldn't be my ideal thing to do either, but if you really can't find a job and have tried everything, it's worth a try to volunteer to get your foot in the door and so the manager can see...

  9. I'm not really a nurse until I sign "RN" after my name

    BlondieRN09 replied to NewNurseAlert's topic in General Nursing

    I wouldn't have my job if it weren't about who I knew. The hospital I work for doesn't hire new grads, but because I knew an educator that worked for them and she provided me with a good reference, I...

  10. I'm about to lose my MIND!!

    BlondieRN09 replied to kemkem's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Like everyone has said, I think we all felt like we were not ready to take the NCLEX and that we were going to fail. But you have to keep a positive attitude about it. You CAN do it. I mostly...

    BlondieRN09 replied to Ms. Nurse Assistant's topic in General Students

    Many instructors will review your paper for you ahead of time if you turn it in several days (or a week) early. You would have to find out from your particular instructor if they are willing to do...

    Just realized I didn't answer your question - the pre-reqs were not paid for, but the co-reqs I mentioned

    BlondieRN09 replied to JazzysMama's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm not sure how they are working that now... when I was going through the program, we had "Co-Reqs" which could be completed during the program on top of your core nursing classes, and those were...

    BlondieRN09 replied to Kabin's topic in School, College Programs

    Here is the link to the academic catalog for the on-campus BSN program: http://my.gcu.edu/SiteCollectionDocuments/Catalog/08-09_spring.pdf. Is this what you were looking at? I'm not familiar with...

    BlondieRN09 replied to JazzysMama's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Which school were you trying to call? If you were trying to call GCU, they're a reliable school. I just finished my last semester in the BSN program in Tucson (20 month accelerated program). If you...

  18. Nursing Program @Grand Canyon University

    BlondieRN09 replied to Kabin's topic in School, College Programs

    I'm not sure about the traditional BSN program, but the accelerated, 20-month program does not have a wait list. They even have billboards all over the Phoenix area advertising this. The main campus...

    I didn't realize you were in Tucson. All the hospitals in Tucson participate in a sponsorship program with GCU's BSN program. They pay 100% of your tuition and books in return for a 3 year work...

  20. 570 loooong days

    BlondieRN09 replied to JazzysMama's topic in Arizona Nursing

    GCU's BSN program has no waiting list and there is a scholarship program if you sign a contract with one of the hospitals up there (forget which one now). Maybe it's St. Joe's? It's worth looking in...

    BlondieRN09 replied to Kabin's topic in School, College Programs

    jac2077777, Welcome!! I am currently attending GCU, but I am attending the Tucson Nursing campus. So I would not be of much help regarding the Phoenix program. Yes, GCU has a sponsorship program...

    BlondieRN09 posted a topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I received 2 pairs of white Crocs Specialists without vents for Christmas. I have back problems, but have read on here that the Specialist model has better arch support, which will help my back. Does...

    I didn't know what they were either, so I goolgle'd them. It's an interesting "physiological footwear." Here's their link:

  24. can i REGISTER for spring class if I am currently TAKING the prereq in the winter?!

    BlondieRN09 replied to Future-nurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good point about emailing the instructors. You just have to be careful relying on that, because some high demand classes such as Anatomy/Physiology have a limit on the # of students that can be in...

  25. can i REGISTER for spring class if I am currently TAKING the prereq in the winter?!

    BlondieRN09 replied to Future-nurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You certainly should be able to. I did it. All I needed to do was take proof that I was currently taking the class to academic counseling (in person), and they did an override for me. It should...
