    College like Excelsior

    donsterRN replied to geo124's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Look at Chamberlain College; I believe they offer online learning. www.chamberlain.edu Also, since you already have a Bachelor's degree, you might qualify for a "fast track" or accelerated BSN...

    donsterRN replied to missymarie26's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Come here to vent anytime! But don't be so hard on the woman who said "how daunting". I don't necessarily think that's a negative statement. It sounds like she may be aware of the time and effort...

    Are you Man Enough to be an OB nurse?

    donsterRN replied to Annointed_RNStudent's topic in Men in Nursing

    I think a lot of the issue has to do with the fact that an obstetrics patient (in most cases) chooses her obstetrician. They already have a good professional relationship. If a woman doesn't like...

    Horrid clinical uniforms

    donsterRN replied to KungFuFtr's topic in Male Nursing Students

    We're fairly lucky. We wear royal blue scrubs with the CC logo embroidered over the breast pocket. White t-shirt beneath, white athletic shoes. Could be worse. That vest thing...

    Sit the last one out? Mulling this over....

    donsterRN replied to NurseDaddy2006's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I totally agree here. PLEASE do not skip the last clinical, even if it is the last one. Any clinical is an opportunity for learning, something that will continue long after graduation. If you feel...

    donsterRN replied to futureaznurse's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Ditto that! My book list, if purchased at the college bookstore would have been about $1200. Barned and Noble had everything in stock, and with my membership saved me about half of that of the...

    A classmate wants to know if I'm gay. How should I respond?

    donsterRN replied to atwtrn's topic in Male Nursing Students

    You're absolutely correct in that your sexuality is irrelevent to your education and is no one's business. Obviously, you're aware that people will talk about people. There's not much you can do...

    Missing Clincials??

    donsterRN replied to jewelsg627's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    In my program, I think you have to be dead to miss a clinical, and even then, I'm not sure that they won't fail you! But lots of schools don't have clinicals on Saturday. So, don't sweat anything...

    Applications

    donsterRN replied to RunnerLuvLisa's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm thinking that it's a good idea to do exactly that: apply to as many programs as you can. If you're in an area that has waiting lists, then being accepted to several places at once might get you...
