I want to move around and see the country and the world once I am a nurse...and I was interested to know what hospital in Hawaii is the best?

Hello! I am planning ahead, way ahead...and I was wondering if PICU is a good place for a newer nurse. I had brain surgery at Hopkins 2 years ago and I was in the Ped Critical care for a week. Since then, I have wanted to work there. Please let me k...

THANK YOU so much for reassuring me! My high school bad mouthed CCBC horribly and I felt like I was making a bad decision- but honestly, CCBC nursing is better than Stevenson! And I think the difference in price should help people make their decisio...

Thanks!! :)

Hello! I am new to allnurses.com, so I am not sure if my question is redundant! Anyways, I am a senior in HS and I am looking at colleges like crazy this summer- I am very passionate about my future as a Nurse. My only concern is which school to ap...

I first heard about Howard CC's nursing when I visited Johns Hopkins U School of Nursing. The admissions director said that any of Maryland's CC's were great places to get pre-reqs & RN! I am planning on going to CCBC Essex...I am sorry I do not...

That is great! I want to do that, because the hospital can help pay for schooling some too. (At JHH they can anyways) Good Luck! -gab.rielle

:chuckle CONGRATS!!! :yeah:I am going into senior year of HS and I wish so badly to be in your places!! I can't wait to get into Nursing School... Good Luck!! -gab.rielle

Well, I guess it depends on when you want to be out and working with your CRNA certif/degree. If you are trying to get to work asap, then do the accelerated. But it may be really grueling compared to the more lax Samford program. Do you have to wait ...

Unless you need remedial math, you know, not testing out of it...but none for required for RN (AA) but I need to take statistics for grad (BSN/MSN) school. -gab.rielle;)

My advice would be- Try!! All they can do is say no, simply ask what you must do to become the type of student they need. Maybe you need some extra GPA inflation, maybe some more experience, who knows...but get that info and it will increase your ch...

Typically, JHU SON looks at the entire package...isn't the previous GPA (before pre-reqs) just gen ed? They normally look at those grades + pre-reqs, the two should not be seperate unless they were done at different times or for another BS degree in ...

Your story has changed my morning! :loveya:Thanks for posting it! I am so glad to hear your sister and her children are doing so well! The world needs more caring and wise nurses! -gab.rielle

I have heard so many horror stories like yours; some nurses out there are awful. I can't tell you how many medicine mix-ups in hospitals I have had. Allergic to them too! And blown veins! Those are inevitable! I am glad to see you want to make a dif...

Well, I am only 17 and a HS senior this year. I am set on my future as a PICU nurse (its my dream). I had brain surgery done 2 years ago, Ben Carson was my neurosurgeon; it was a condition called Chiari type 1 malformation. In short, the stem of my b...

Hello! I am also going to be doing a CC program (CCBC Essex perhaps) and then transfering to an RN-BSN program (JHU SON...perhaps?:) but right now I am only a high school senior. Yours is a good choice! Save money, and you could even go as far as to ...

Good luck!!

I am looking into the program (they only offer grad programs) and if I were to transfer there after my 2 years at CCBC Essex, the website says the tuition is $15, 372! Am I seeing this wrong or what? Hope not! That is a great price! The last time I...

Thank you!! I knew I read the tuition price wrong...I figured it out shortly after I posted this. -gab.rielle

I believe you can, it is just a matter of taking a few more credits and possibly retaking some sciences (if it has been a few years only though). For example, at CCBC Essex (in MD), they offer an LPN program and an RN program- I would look at both an...

The area around Hopkins is awesome! Such a great place to be and so close to everything! Just heed warning, as in any city, the area has a bit of a rough past. (notice the blue police lights and cameras stationed all around- they are making a change!...

Hello! Check out www.apartments.com ! They have an awesome search engine and ways to contact great apartment complex admin offices! You can even narrow down the search according to pets/no pets, pools, parking, A/C, RENT PRICES, apartment sizes etc...

'Hello! So far I have heard good about CCBC Essex (I am not too familiar with the other CC programs though.) and everyone who has heard of, or works with nurses who went there, says that CCBC Essex is so much more education than the money it costs. ...

I am HS senior and I am visiting CCBC Essex Nursing tomorrow...it looks like a great program! I am so jealous of those of you going to college this fall! I have to wait another year in useless HS!! Although I plan to test out of most 'easy' pre-req ...

thanks! I have mixed info about VJC or Stevenson U as its called now. Apparently in May '07 they were in trouble and could have been shut down and no longer accredited. Thats definitely not worth the private school costs! Please let your friend know ...
