Hi, Thank you for your very informative and helpful article. I am currently an RN in Jamaica working in the cathlab and also heart failure clinic. I would like to advance my career with a cardiology NP degree/certification in the US. How best can this work for me being international?

I'm curious to know how things turned out for you. I just recently completed an MS in applied pharmacology degree while working as a BSN RN at a local hospital in Jamaica. I have been a nurse since 2013.

Time flies when you are busy with work. Success is attainable with faith and hard work. Good luck to you!

So, to embellish on my above post written in 2008, my grad ceremony is ten days away. The 12th of August 2012...YaY! Thanks to allnurses.com forums for all the helpful info through this journey. Next goal: Nurse Anesthesia...si podemos . one victory won; still in battle mode.

Thank you for the information.

what happened to trying again, and harder this time...? Don't give up on the first fall, if you really want it, go get it.

I just got officially accepted as well into the BSN nursing program at the Nothern Caribbean University in Jamaica...So it's another male nurse in the house. Its my first year and a lot of things will be new, plus I'll be studying on a male to female ratio of about 1:50 ... kinda scary. but i'm sure I could always stop by here for some help and advise. thanx for all your helpful information.

flightnurse is so right!
