I'm currently on a travel assignment in NYC. It literally took less than a month for me to have my NY RN license issued after submitting all required documents (including completion of required online courses). Good luck to you!!

Hello All- I'm looking to enroll in LaSalle University's Part-Time Evening/Weekend BSN program next fall. Was wondering if anyone here currently attends or attended this school and could give me any insight as to how good/bad the program is. Any ad...

Took NCLEX for the first time at 10am on 10/30/06. Finished school in May, but was in no hurry to take the test since i had no plans on taking a hospital job until i secured a license (hey - i didn't need any additional pressure!). Well, i figure...

While you were preparing for the exam the first time, did you have to sacrifice a lot of quality time with him? Its possible that he could just be frustrated at the thought of having to sacrifice even more time while you prepare for the exam the sec...

First, confirm that your school sent the BON the necessary paper work!! Sometimes it's not the board, its ur school that's the hold up. In PA, it took exactly 2-weeks to get my ATT once my school handled their part. Good Luck!!

Uh-Oh! Sounds like you attend the school i just graduated from. They had the May 2006 grads take a brief survey asking whether we felt PDA's would have been helpful....guess the majority said "Yes". Sorry to hear about the cost though!! Hang In T...

Hello All- I'm graduating from a BSN program in May 2006. Just started a new job in January 2006 that I would like to hold for at least a year (social services). I'm wondering whether there are hospitals that offer part-time graduate nursing positi...

hello- i'm a guy who'll be starting a part-time BSN program this week Tuesday. love this website and thought i'd try to 'network' with any other students attending nursing school in the Philadelphia or South Jersey area! come one, come all! Thanks!!

I'm just wrapping up my first year of nursing courses and have found Pharmacology to be the most difficult - only because there's so much memorization involved. Many of my other courses are based on obtaining a certain degree of understanding as opp...

I am currently a nursing student in Philadelphia and my university, in light of the 2003 event at Abington, has decided against using this hospital as a clinical site. Regardless of what people say, there was nothing JUST about accommodating such an...

If I'm not mistaken - the Sallie Mae Signature loan is an actual loan based on credit and debt/income ratios. I don't believe they hold current student loans against you. The only time I think the amount of school loans you have falls into play is ...

I work 8am-5pm behind a desk all day. My nursing school schedule is two evenings a week and every other weekend. It's definitely HARD, however, with A LOT of 'time management' - it's doable. It definitely takes an immense amount of motivation. M...

since i already have a degree and can only go part-time (evenings & weekends), i found that La Salle University's BSN program fit the best. i wish i could afford to quit my job and run through one of the many accelerated BSN programs, but i'll b...

I know the 'Nursing Pay' discussion has had the CRAP beat out of it, but this thread is directed to those NEW GRADS that have just accepted their FIRST nursing job with ONLY SCHOOL-RELATED EXPERIENCE behind them. If you will, please answer the follo...

hello NurseKay- though i haven't attended either of the schools you mentioned, i did graduate with a business degree from Jackson State University in Jackson, MS - so i'm somewhat familiar with all of them. what i can tell you is that both UMC and US...
