  1. Remington College of Nursing - Orlando

    This program seems to be the most promising. I would like go into the army with their BSN but the program is not regionally accredited. I already have my bachelor's degree in another field would it matter if my BSN is not regionally accredited?
  2. Merit Technical Institute* NJ

    Well I agree that everyone's situation is different. People that are currently Nurses aren't the best ones to go to for advice. Now I know I'm going to offend some people with that statement. The people that are currently in the field should know bes...
  3. Merit Technical Institute* NJ

    I would first like to start off by saying that Merit is a for profit school. I do not understand why they are demonized for that fact. In our economy they fulfill a need. I have attempted to get into multiple LPN programs in NYC and they are all fill...
  4. Choosing a Nursing Program

    I'm currently taking A&P I and Microbiology. If I want to get into a BSN program I have to complete chemistry and statistics. I will not be able to do this before fall. I can however apply to an Associates degree program beginning this fall and t...
  5. Microbiology study group spring 2009

    I had purchased my books last Friday and they were expensive. Over half the cost of tuition. I couldn't believe it. I have never spent so much money on books before. This is outrageous. Some of the books were used. I mean I could attempt to find them...
  6. Unethical Hiring Practices

    Disclaimer: I am not a nurse or a medical professional. From what I know about labor the price that the quote you in the contract is what they have to pay you. They cannot renegotiate the price after the contract is signed unless you agreed. They wou...
  7. Anyone else pinning all hope on getting accepted to ONE program?

    I was until I was rejected by that same program. I had started looking at other alternatives. Basically it means moving to NYC for about 1.5 years. They have more accelerated programs to chose from so I have a better chance of getting into one. I sho...
  8. any non traditional students here?

    Well I am a divorced father of two who is 30 years old. I should be 32 by the time I complete the standard group of pre-requistes for admission into an accelerated nursing program. I'm planning to move back to NYC because they have more programs avai...
  9. Microbiology study group spring 2009

    I would like to join as well. Classes start January 12th for me.
  10. 2nd Degree BSN vs. LPN to RN (AS) to BSN

    Honestly if you look at it the time would be the same. Now there are alot of variables to consider in making this decision and the weight that you put on each of these variables will allow you to better choose what's best for your. First off is the t...
  11. Remington College of Nursing - Orlando

    I haven't completed all my prerequisites but my only concern is getting the RN license. A nurse in NYC makes about 75-80 a year so paying them back wouldn't be too much of an issue. In this economy the medical field is a smart move. As for their accr...
  12. Army Nurse without a BSN

    I am a prospective nursing student looking to get their Associates Degree in Nursing. I have my bachelors degree in another field and I would like to enter the Army as a officer and take advantage of their tuition remibursement program. Can I enter i...
  13. Failed the NET

    Can anyone tell me the passing score for the NET. Does it very by program? I had gotten a 56 on the Math section of the NET. I had passed the reading section of the exam with a 76. The test is supposed to be basic knowledge. Why then must I study for...
  14. BSN vs. ADN

    While costs is definitely a factor in any decision since money is a limited resource it would be best to choose based on which program you can get into. Time, not money seems to be the issue for me. I want to complete an RN program in as little time ...
  15. Adn Or Bsn?

    I believe it is more a matter of the requirements since Pay is equal. I had wanted to get into a BSN program but I found that they are often more competitive than the ADN and diploma programs. Right now the best thing is to get into a program quickly...
  16. Army Nurse- Loan Repayment Plan

    I'm currently looking at completing an ASN program and wonder if I would be able to enter into the Army as a nurse. I have a bachelor's degree in Information Technology but would like to change my career. My question is would I be able to enter into ...
  17. Part time LPN Programs

    Hello I am new to the board. I was wondering if their are any part time LPN programs offered in the Central Florida region. Also anyone that has taken courses at Orlando Tech that is the time like. I currently have a full-time job that I would like t...
  18. Nursing Career

    I am planning to enter the field at age 32. I'm currently 30 years old and have just started taking the prerequiste courses for the program. I'm in the Information Technology field and I am currently burnt out.
  19. which is better for me: AAS, accelerated BSN, BSN with exceptions???

    I would have to say that it would depend on your situation. Honestly it would take you just ask long to complete the Bachelors as it would to complete the associates. The pre-requistes are very similar. Look at the time it would take to complete the ...
