I'm starting to get pretty discouraged with hunting for a GN position. I will be graduating with my ADN in about a week, and so far I haven't had any luck with interviews! When I call to follow up...

I am about to graduate in may and unfortunately, I've gained like 10 pounds. And quite a few other people in my class have as well, it's pretty common! I would suggest pre-planning meals... I've...
Hey everyone :) I live in Spring (just north of Houston for those who are elsewhere in Tx), and I will be graduating with my ADN in May 2009. It doesn't look like the 2 hospitals out here that I...

It depends on what part of town you live in from what I hear. Most of the feedback I've gotten is that the park and ride is not a bad way to go. I've actually had someone suggest the Woodlands park...

I would go for Houston... it's not too far of a drive to the beach and you can work in some pretty amazing hospitals : ) What is your specialty? I live in the suburbs of Houston and while it isn't...

I think that's an awful thing to say too, I guess just a catty response. It implies that we think we are better than someone else. It's human nature to judge. I don't think it matters at all who...
I am a student nurse who will be graduating with my ADN in May and moving to the denver area. I am definitely going to pursue an RN-BSN program as soon as possible. While I was waiting to get into a...
I completely agree with this.. you never know what could be used should something really unfortunate happen with legal issues, or if you end up taking care of them again and issues arise from them...

I am thinking of moving to Denver too : ) I am actually from there but went to highschool and college in Texas. I don't know what the salary is in the area.. I heard starting pay for a new grad...
I think that whoever told you that is wrong. Yes, you should keep an open mind and you will have to do a little bit of everything in nursing school, but it's up to you where you work for the rest of...
Well, I'm pretty open right now. I would ideally like to live close to work and I used to live south of Denver in Centennial, so that's the area I have in mind but I'm open to anything. It's all...
I am going to be in the same situation it seems.. I am graduating in May '09 from out of state and moving back to Colorado hopefully soon after I graduate. I'd love to get any sort of contact...

Don't worry, I know a couple people who have gone there and they did fine : ) I'm sure there are problems with every program. You just have to keep the end result in mind. (Talking about

I thought that the lone star application period was in march? Anyway, I'd suggest NH because they take the largest # of students and I know some that got in after being on the alternate list
Hi everyone! I'm an ADN student in Texas and I finish in May 2009. I grew up in Centennial and my husband and I are fairly certain we want to move back up to Denver after I graduate. I have a...
I lived pretty close to I-25 and Dry Creek Rd. I'm used to commuting pretty far.. (most people in Houston live about 30 miles away from their jobs from what I've seen) but I am nervous about driving...
I grew up in Englewood (now known as Centennial) and went to the Cherry Creek school district which was great. I briefly lived in Aurora when I was young, but I don't remember much about it. I...
