1. New Grad Influx?

   bano.bsn replied to bano.bsn's topic in Government, Military

   I really hope you aren't implying that I am merely looking for a job. My husband is a disabled Army Vet and I am well aware that it is more than just a job as we live with the choice of him serving...

2. New Grad Influx?

   bano.bsn posted a topic in Government, Military

   Does anyone know of the Army having the same huge influx of New Grad nurses wanting to join as active duty? The Navy told me 2 years of waiting to get in, Air Force said at least 1 year, but I haven't...

5. Keeping Prior Licenses?

   bano.bsn replied to bano.bsn's topic in General Students

   Thanks for all the replies! I think I will fork out the dough and keep the license (I think its around $50 plus 6 units of Continuing Education). I guess its sad that today I may have to worry about...

7. Should I even begin to pursue this?

   bano.bsn replied to TiffanyBCbus's topic in General Students

   I think it depends on the schools you are applying to. Places like John's Hopkins, Yale, etc., of course those probably need a pretty high GPA. It's just like after you graduate from high school and...

   bano.bsn replied to ZenStudent's topic in General Nursing

   I'm in the same boat. Except I already have about 30k in debt from my first degree at a state school in Ca. I'm starting a accelerated BSN in a week and have applied for financial aid which added up...

10. Car for Nursing school?

    bano.bsn replied to bano.bsn's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Thanks for your advice. I can see how being the "only one who needs a ride" a uncomfortable situation! I really don't want to be that person!

11. Car for Nursing school?

    bano.bsn posted a topic in Colorado Nursing

    Do you think it is a necessity to own a car during nursing school? I live 2-3 miles away from my actual school in Denver, so biking/bus is ok to get there. My husband & I only have one car at the...
