Hi all, I will be graduating with my BSN next May (2010) and am wondering if it's possible to work in Australia as a new graduate nurse from the US. I would like to go for a year on a working holiday...
I want to just work in Sydney mostly. I was looking up new graduate programs in the Sydney area and they are all 12 months so I'd have to apply for a sponsorship from the hospital and go under a...
I applied for the peds acute care program. Columbia only has a peds primary care track so I might switch to the acute care np and try and specialize in peds. I'm going to NY for Columbia's visiting...
I got a response back from Andrea about the waitlist. She said that since applicants have until May 1st to accept or decline their decision it's hard to predict if people on the waitlist will hear...
Jalin, I got my letter last night. My mailman was being evil and didn't deliver the mail til practically 7pm. Good luck to you! Hopefully you'll get your acceptance letter in the mail today. I'm...
That's so true, i totally forgot about that! I mean what if they let someone in the BSN and after they interview them for the MSN decide they're not qualified then? Then would you be stuck with just...
Oh my letter doesn't even mention the MSN even though I applied for the segue program. It just says I'm waitlisted for the BSN so if I get off the waitlist I don't know if that means I'll get into...
Lauralou, I'm so sorry to hear you didn't get the program of choice, but at least they're offering you a spot in the BSN class. You would have to go thru that part the same way if you were a segue...
I applied for the segue program too. Jalin, what specialty track did you apply for? I applied for the peds acute care track. Hopefully there'll be good news in the mail for us
I wish I could join you guys in that thready odooma, but I'M STILL WAITING I checked my OPUS account today and they updated something on my financial aid to do list, but they can't update my...

lcamp99, i'm so sorry to hear about your news, but it sounds like you have a strong head on your shoulders and i'm sure you'll make a wonderful nurse! i'm still anxiously waiting to hear about my...
Thanks for the encouragement Lauralou! Yeah, my last rec didn't get submitted until after the new year so maybe since my app didn't get in until closer to the deadline my decisions coming out a...

Congratulations to both of you! Did you just click on the "view your decision" link on opus? I'm just curious. I wish they would post the segue decisions online too. I really don't want to wait...
Ok I just got my award from Oscar. I got the usual nursing scholarship of 33K and I got 5500 in federal stafford loans and 73k for a federal parent plus loan since i'm still considered a dependent....
Oh great, the deadline is next week and I haven't even gotten it yet. Doggiedad, I haven't gotten anything at all from Columbia either. Jose said that they weren't mailing any letters and that we...
I STILL haven't gotten my financial aid package. I called Oscar twice this morning and no answer and I emailed him a couple days ago and no response. Am I the only one who hasn't gotten it yet?...
hey guys, i emailed andrea today and she said they're trying to mail decisions out by next wed. she didn't say anything about whether or not it would be posted on opus though. anybody else heard...
