  1. Denver School of Nursing- Entrance Exam

    bano.bsn posted a topic in Colorado Nursing

    I'm taking the entrance exam for DSON at the end of December. I'm guessing its the basics, but if you've taken it can you tell me a little more about it?? Passing this test (atleast 70%) and having...

  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...

  3. 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...

  4. Air Force life

    bano.bsn posted a topic in Government, Military

    With much research, thought, and consideration I have decided to join the Air Force. I am a new grad in Ca and therefore do not have much hope of getting a job in the near future. My husband is an...

  5. Air Force life

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

    Thanks for the advice everyone! The ironic part is I have been a runner and extremely active my whole life, and now when it counts I am scared of doing a

  6. Keeping Prior Licenses?

    bano.bsn posted a topic in General Students

    Hi All, I am currently in a Accelerated BSN program that ends next year. I currently have a phlebotomy license that will expire in the Fall. Being a broke nursing student, I am debating whether to...

  7. 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...

  8. Denver Housing

    bano.bsn posted a topic in Colorado Nursing

    I'm starting Denver School of Nursing in April and we are relocating from California. From what we've seen so far, Craigslist is full of weirdos and not very trustworthy. Does anyone have any...

  9. 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...

  10. money anxiety...

    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...

  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...

  12. Metro Students!

    bano.bsn posted a topic in Colorado Nursing

    Am I going crazy? I just clicked on the metro nursing website and the accelerated program now states it is "17 months," starts in January, and is completed in 4 semesters?!? Have they changed their...

  13. 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!

  14. Metro Accelerated BSN

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

    Hi Elizabeth, My husband & I moved last week to Denver. We had flown out and searched for housing (single family home type places). We got really lucky and found a place from Craigslist. It's a...

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

    davwil52, Really helpful stuff and more motivation for me to go to Metro. I was at the campus today, checking it out for the first time (I'm moving from Ca). The nursing secretary said 36 people are...

  18. Metro Accelerated BSN

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

    This is from the Metro website. Which does surprise me, b/c usually public schools do charge for out of state, which can be really expensive. Thanks for the thought! "The estimated cost of the 2009...

  19. Metro Accelerated BSN

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

    I weigh my options on the grounds of eventually becoming the best nurse I can be. Is forcing a 12 month program more likely to negatively effect me when it comes down to actually working as a

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

    Denver School of Nursing in Colorado has a 21 month BSN, you don't have to have a bach's. The great thing: all you have to do is take an entrance exam (very easy!) and fill out an application and they...

  21. Metro Accelerated BSN

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

    I just got into Metro for April '09 also. My problem: I've conditionally signed an agreement with Denver school of Nursing also. Now I am picking between the two. Both schools don't have that much...
