   Lindsay2228 replied to LETRN's topic in General Nursing

   I didn't ask the question, but I appreciate all the responses! I won't be a nurse until May 2011, but I am hoping to get a night shift position so I can go to grad school while working, if at all possible! Even if I can't do grad school, the night ...

   Lindsay2228 replied to lvnjden4ever, R.N.'s topic in General Nursing

   oh how sad! I have to assume that what they are saying is jealousy. Because your job sounds fun. You are a real nurse. Hold your head up high and ignore those b1tch3s! Best of luck to you on your new job!!

9. BSN-MSN - Savings?

   Lindsay2228 replied to Lindsay2228's topic in General Students

   73 includes room and board and I would be able to live with my parents so I could save money that way. Can I ask what made you decide to go private as opposed to public? I'm so excited and yet so nervous!

10. BSN-MSN - Savings?

    Lindsay2228 replied to Lindsay2228's topic in General Students

    I'm looking into the U of R too - for May 2010. I'm scared that I won't get in but I'm also wondering how to justify the cost of a private school vs. a public school. Do any of you have any insight on this?

    Lindsay2228 replied to chronospyke's topic in General Nursing

    Hi! I'm wondering what you both decided? I'm looking into Rochester. The cost is insane! I was told that the total cost for everything was about $73,000. Do people who go to these programs have an independent source of funding? How do you justi...

14. Does reputation matter for Nursing School?

    Lindsay2228 replied to Lindsay2228's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks, Elkpark. May I pick your brain for what other reasons there may be to go to a more prestigious program? I have a pretty good in at this school and I really want to go there, I just worry that it's not the best decision, cost wise.
