Maybe even try contacting Chapel Hill directly with your questions about retaking classes? ??

Hey, I met with them back in Nov. and I believe starting pay for a new grad. was 20.25 (not including shift diff.)

Thanks. Not sure I can answer this right now. I would just like to start on a masters now before my life gets too busy and my GRE scores are good. I've got more thinking to do.

Hi, what school did you attend to get your MSN in perinatal nursing? Did this also include the CNS or how did you get that? I'm just beginning the search process and am curious. Thanks!

Thanks! I'll look in to Clemson. I just heard CNS's aren't as popular any more and the shift is to move away from them so I wasn't sure this was what I should pursue...

Thank you. That is something I will look in to. I know it's starting up at UNC-Chapel Hill (near my home).

Hey, I would like to get my masters and still work in a NICU, but I don't think I want to be a NNP because I like being at the bedside and working with patients and families directly. Are there other master programs out there besides NNP (and Education) that would meet my interests? I just don't know. Thanks!

Hey, Congrats on getting in to Duke! I got in to Duke, but not UNC's two year program. I decided to attend a combined BSN / MSN program so I can't comment on Duke. But as Carolinapooh said, I do remember Duke saying, we could get $33,000 ($11,000 per year) if we worked for them. That is very appealing and makes both schools comparable in cost. If you really liked Duke, I say go for it. I fell in love with Duke and wish that had convinced me enough to go (rather than my drive to get my masters fast). Good luck!

Hey, good luck! I took A& P I and II there as well as Bio. 111. Tough classes, but really interesting. Learn as much as your brain can hold!

Hey, sorry for the slow response. I'm at Columbia here in NYC. I can't wait to get back to NC. I'm from Greensboro. NYC is fine, but it's just a different way of life that takes some getting used to.

Hi, where in NYC are you working? I am in school in NYC, but am from NC and plan to return to NC after I graduate. Why are you planning on moving to NC? Best of Luck!

Thank you for the great information. I have applied to both and met with the nurse recruitment dept. last week at Forsyth. I was very impressed and will have to see what I learn if I get to interview with the nurse manager. Where are you in school - Winston Salem state? That's wonderful- clinicals at both locations! Have you thought about where you might apply to work? I'm in school in NYC and I think I'm the only one applying already, but to work in NC, you've got to start this early. Best of luck!

Hey, They do hire new grads in the NICU. What do you like about working at Wake Med- anything general? Do they have magnet status? Thanks!

Good luck as well!
