Hi, What are my career options in the field of nursing that isn't at the bedside/floor? Esp for someone who only has 1.5 years of experience (& their BSN) at the moment? I worked for 1 year at a large acute care teaching hospital on tele step-dow...

This thread might be dead. But, as a current student, I don't recommend this program. It should be last on your list, and a back-up if anything.

Forgot: Does anyone know how many were accepted? And how big they expect the class size to be? Or the clinical/lecture instructor to student ratio? Thanks!!

Thanks guiltysins. By the 18 month program, you mean the 15 month program right? Or are they separate programs? Would you or anyone else know where the clinical sites are? And if there are education abroad opportunities? Oh, and scholarships/ grants...

Of course, welcome! Not much of a discussion though... Was wondering, did anyone get their financial aid package yet?

Btw, congrats everybody!! :-)

Congrats to those who got in!! :-) This is a repost from another thread: Hey all! I got into NYU too, for Spring 2010. Is there a FB page started for our cohort? I have SOO many questions, esp. since I never had a chance to visit. (How much is tuitio...

Hey all! I got into NYU too, for Spring 2010. Is there a FB page started for our cohort? I have SOO many questions, esp. since I never had a chance to visit. (How much is tuition? Are there jobs lined up for us at NYU's medical center after graduatio...

Whoa. So much is going on. Anyway. I looked @ both the postings for the two places, they look really really nice. I'm fine with either as long as its within my price range: max $900-ish (rent+ all utl.). Oh, and I dont mind having a few dogs around-...

Allimar--I'm doing a combo of everything. I dont want one giant loan where the interest payments will accrue to $20k in a few years. I'm working on the stupid CSS profile thing so I can get a finaid package from GU. Do apply for a FAFSA right now, if...

Nice price!! Same here: I'd love to walk to classes too. I'm sick of living like a poor college student, esp. since I feel all old. But my budget leaves me little choice. So excited to be moving though I probably can't get there until 1/6 though.

My facebook is always so slow. Cant find the group for some reason. I'll try again later. I think living together to save money is a very good idea. Ideally, I'd like to live within walking distance to the school...but I wouldnt mind living on some k...

Should I book a flight for 12/15 or 1/6?

WLJ: since we're both from Cali, wana find a place together too? I foresee that I'll need a fellow Californian around so I wont feel too out of place. PM me ladies, and we can start looking for something. Just to warn you, I am super poor and on a ve...

I love to be outdoors too---the Potomac River is very beautiful and right out the door from GU. WLJ-- I think the $70k tuition is a lot for this program. There are other great programs out there that cost way less. And D.C. has a very high cost of ...

I'll be moving from CA too! I totally need to apartment hunt. I stayed at the Holiday Inn which is across the bridge/river from Georgetown, wasnt too bad--good hike. I'd consider Arlington if its cheaper. On a budget. Just totally unfamiliar with the...

I got that too. Decision before Oct. 9th. Makes sense. so excited about interview this week! hope to see some of you

OK, thanks WLJ. I'll bring some cash and a map. Even getting lost might be fun. I plan on cabbing it if theres no hope, haha. Whew, can't wait!

WLJ2009- Just wondering, did you take the Loudoun County Commuter Bus from Dulles to your hotel/Georgetown (from Google maps)? I want to take some sort of public transportation, but not sure what/when.

Its a group interview? Ick. How many ppl were interviewed at once? I totally prefer 1-on-1 meetings. And don't worry, theres only like 3 weeks left. That will fly by so fast, by the time yall know it, it'll be snowing. Though not where I live.

Good luck ppl going tomorrow and next Tuesday :-) OK no heels. I'll definitely be doing a lot of walking. What I'm wearing will depend entirely on the weather. I just checked todays and its pretty humid and sunny. I don't wana be sweating balls whe...

Good luck on the interview everyone! Its coming up; so exciting :-) Lizzylou--don't worry. Many folks have gotten in with a bunch of classes left. As long as theyre all done before classes begin, youre totally fine. Allimar87--please let us know how ...

I got one too. This is turning out to be a very expensive interview. Wishing I had done it earlier. Anyone else scheduled for Oct 3rd with me?

Hi all, Just wanted to see who else has applied to the Spring cohort...and is waiting for word of an interview etc. The waiting part is the hardest for me. Also, does anyone know of any other ABSN programs out there that are opening up a Spring coho...

When I signed up there were 3 interview days. One day each week for 3 weeks. (Not that many) Anyway thanks naptownlaxer. Do you (or anyone else) know about how many spots there are? (That determines how competitive the scholarship is.) I'm trying to ...
