  1. I'm looking for students that have attended or currently attend Career Training Solutions. I saw some posts from a few years ago, but nothing recent. Can you please tell me what the program is like? What the schedule is? What the time frame is for gr...
  2. Thanks for the info. Have you run into any problems because os the non-nln accreditation?
  3. Wow. Ok, thanks.
  4. New BSN program-no accreditation yet?

    I agree with Moogie. If they've petitioned already they will probably have the accreditation before you graduate. If they hadn't petitioned, that would be a different story and I would say NO!!
  5. No prenatal care?!

  6. No prenatal care?!

    I'd be willing to bet it has something to do with not having any health insurance. I lost my job when I was pregnant and was able to obtain state insurance until I became employed again, but not everyone knows about it and where I live you have to wa...
  7. Is putting 'BSN' on badge snobbish?

    PhD is different because it's the highest leve you can obtain (along side other doctorates)
  8. Is putting 'BSN' on badge snobbish?

    Zookeeper..the difference is that PHD is a title and BSN and MSN both are not titles they are degrees, therefore should not go behind your name. I have a MBA and a PHR and used PHR behind my name, but not MBA because it is not a title.
  9. The attire debate - what should nurses wear?

    I agree with other posters that everyone wearing scrubs is confusing. I know that when I've been a pt at a hospital I tell the housekeeping from the nurses and I don't think that's a good thing at all. In my opinion scrubs should be reserved for dir...
  10. Is putting 'BSN' on badge snobbish?

    I don't think it's snobbish at all, but I don't think that it is proper protocol to put your degree behind your name. I find it very strange actually and feel like this practice has only happened in the last couple of years in various fields. BSN is ...
  11. ^^^^ THIS
  12. Your quote from the school seems about right. FAFSA determines which grants you qualify for and your school will automatically give them to you. This year the max is $5500 for pell. I made 19k last year, have one child and I received $19k in loans...
  13. Can a CNA get a job as a MA?

    ^^^^This You can work as a medical assistant without even being a CNA if they are willing to train you. Some places want a MA Certifcation and others don't ask for one.
  14. If you are married they will include your husband's income as well. If you google financial aid estimators there are a lot of calculators that you can use.
  15. The start of a career in nursing!

    I wish I had some advice, but I am looking as well. Good luck to you and don't give up!
  16. Does it matter where your degree came from?

    This is incorrect. My nursing program is not accredited by the NLN or the CCNE yet and our graduates have taken the NCLEX RN and are working. Some of them are also in BSN programs. The only approval neccesary is from the state.
  17. Good Laptop for Nursing school

    I have an ASUS netbook. It was $220 at Bestbuy. I love it. It's light weight, I can put it in my purse and it fits perfectly on my desk at school with room to spare. I bought their external CD/DVD drive for $30. It's a little bigger than the size...
  18. Need some encouragement

    I'm sorry to hear this. I pray you will find something soon.
  19. I agree with the others. I understand the pain, but do what you gotta do to stay in the program. It will be well worth it!!
  20. How many of you shop around for books...

  21. Can nursing students apply for CNA or LPN jobs

    Check the Board of Nursing for your state. In MD you have to have completed one semester of clinicals.
  22. ***CLASS OF 2011***

    Hi everyone. I graduate in Jan from PN and June from RN! I hope this year goes by fast.
  23. How many of you shop around for books...

    The ones that I know I will not use again...I rent from chegg.com. They come in 2 days. The others I get from Amazon or half.com
  24. I'm not sure,but it doesn't sound right
  25. The Problem with Nursing

    :hug: You too!
