    studentmom2007 replied to Rev Elvis's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    studentmom2007 replied to memlz233's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Good luck! I applied to PCC this year so I am waiting on the "late April" lottery drawing. Why don't they give an exact date yet? They say numbers will be sent to the applicants 2-3 weeks before the...

    studentmom2007 replied to studentmom2007's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Thanks, WantAccel! My mom has also been warning me about living right in Durham and said pretty much all the schools are bad. I'm sure Chapel Hill is much more pricey in cost of living, but I guess it...

  9. What hospitals ARE hiring new grads?

    studentmom2007 replied to BonnieSc's topic in Oregon Nursing

    studentmom2007 replied to kitchenluvr's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    studentmom2007 replied to Hjukka's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    studentmom2007 replied to Hjukka's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    HJUKKA-Have you checked into Oregon College of Arts and Craft? I believe they have a photography program. I don't know anything about the school at all, other than it is private, so between OHSU and...

    studentmom2007 posted a topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    studentmom2007 replied to Hjukka's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    studentmom2007 replied to elizabells's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I came pretty close to delivering that way with my 2nd, but I had no idea that could really happen! I went from 7-10cm in about 20 minutes and as soon as the doc walked in, I felt a POP and heard the...

    studentmom2007 replied to studentmom2007's topic in Oregon Nursing

    studentmom2007 replied to studentmom2007's topic in Oregon Nursing

    studentmom2007 replied to missjennmb's topic in Ob/Gyn

  23. Curious about how long you all have been waiting to be accepted

    studentmom2007 replied to studentmom2007's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    studentmom2007 replied to JustJane2008's topic in Oregon Nursing
