  1. Are you getting a ADN or going straight to BSN ?

    Elle_Guerira replied to zrodriguez's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am going thru the ABSN route because I feel that it'll open some doors for me and because the ADN programs in CA have a fierce admission process. After racking up some bedside nursing for a few...

    Elle_Guerira replied to att417's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Have you started on your prereqs yet? I think you should reconsider applying at the university level because some programs only look at your college courses, and most importantly your prereqs i.e....

  5. Neonatal NP vs. Midwifery

    Elle_Guerira replied to davislove's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It's really up to you if you would rather go thru the ABSN or MEPN route. Like you, I have a non-nursing degree as well, but chose to go for my ABSN instead of an MEPN so that I can rack up a couple...

  15. National University Accelerated BSN

    Elle_Guerira replied to yqin's topic in California Nursing

    Speaking for myself, perhaps my circumstance is different than most. As much as I would want to take out loans, my "rich" parents would rather fund my education rather me paying interest to the...

  16. National University Accelerated BSN

    Elle_Guerira replied to yqin's topic in California Nursing

    Of course it would be make sense to go to a state school and end up paying thousands less for tuition than a private institution, but nowadays when you're competing against hundreds of applicants who...

  17. National University Accelerated BSN

    Elle_Guerira replied to yqin's topic in California Nursing

    I thought cohort 1 had already started the program ??? Anyhoo, I'm in cohort 2 and orientation isn't until September 18th (whoo, that's less than two weeks and a few days shy from my birthday!). My...

  18. National University Accelerated BSN

    Elle_Guerira replied to yqin's topic in California Nursing

    Hi Mica123 & welcome to allnurses! I dunno of whom were accepted with similar stats as yours, but what was your GPA in the last 60 hours? I ask since you need a 2.75 qGPA or a 3.00 on the last 60...

  19. Going to National University-Fresno

    Elle_Guerira replied to emichan's topic in California Nursing

    Hi Emichan: Like you, I was also feeling discouraged of not getting accepted into a nursing program mostly because of my qGPA in my previous degree. Four rejections and one waitlist later, I finally...

  20. Which Prereq is Harder: A&P or Microbiology or Chem?

    Elle_Guerira replied to PacoUSA's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Based on my experience, I could see how Chem would come into play in Physio (electrolytes come into mind), but other than that, I think I could've done well if I hadn't taken it before Physio. On the...

  21. National University Accelerated BSN

    Elle_Guerira replied to yqin's topic in California Nursing

    From what I understood from the information session, the similarity between the two programs is that everyone will take the same nursing core classes towards their BSN. However, for those in the...

  22. National University Accelerated BSN

    Elle_Guerira replied to yqin's topic in California Nursing

    Yep I am . Though I am curious to know how many of us are in the ABSN program vs. generic especially since they only accept 20 students for the cohort. I guess I'll let that thought linger come...

  24. Are You Volunteering For You or Just For Show?

    Elle_Guerira replied to PacoUSA's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I volunteer because it gives me that constant reminder -- that motivation if you will -- why I am pursuing a healthcare career in nursing (and my eventual goal of becoming an NP). I have been...

  25. Clarification on the right type of volunteer work?

    Elle_Guerira replied to DoveBunni's topic in California Nursing

    I actually mentioned this in another thread, but if you currently reside in SoCal, there's a program offered by several hospitals that provides pre-health students direct patient care experience. It's...
